On Sept. 29, barring further unforeseen catastrophe or readily predictable coronavirus-related issues, Joe Biden will debate President Trump in Cleveland, OH.
He took it to Bernie pretty good one on one just a few months ago.
Remember, he has been to debates this year, Trump hasn’t.
And Trump never won a debate with HRC on points, she cleaned his clock most nights. But Trump had no record to attack then, while she did. It is an entirely different story now.
Biden is going to be able to say to Trump what most Americans have never had the chance to say. The press cannot attack him for his policies, they want to keep access. He doesn’t answer questions he doesn’t want to, he just calls the questioner names like “nasty” and so on.
Biden can open up on Trump, if Trump starts lying or obfuscating Biden can slap that down too. He has had a LOT of practice over the years.
And remember, Trump is busy and is ostensibly unteachable. Biden can hunker down with the best and the brightest to generate the most effective attack strategies and he has all the time in the world to do so.
