Latest in @TheAtlantic : Why President Biden should not do a TV debate alongside Defendant Trump theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Yesterday, a consortium of networks published a statement urging Biden to debate Trump on their platforms. In @TheAtlantic I argue that a president should not do joint appearances with people indicted for violent crimes against the US Constitution. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
@davidfrum @Morning_Joe @TheAtlantic I agree with David Frum in that Pres Biden shouldn’t lower himself to debate a convicted rapist/tax cheat/business fraud, election denier & instigator of J6 Trump. It demeans him. Instead, he should do a televised interview on topics that concern Americans, such as the economy &
@davidfrum @TheAtlantic I agree. We know who Trump and Biden are. They both have records. Trump is a bully and a liar and there wil be no free exchange of ideas in a debate. Say no Joe.
@davidfrum @TheAtlantic If Biden skips the debates, he's handing the election to Trump. It'll confirm to everyone that the man is senile and cannot handle the job(as if the last 3+ years haven't shown that already). He might get away with doing just one. But he can't avoid them altogether.
@davidfrum @TheAtlantic You can dress it up into a principled stance, but we all know it's because he's old and can't do it.
