The Biden Campaign has officially abandoned its position on the Presidential Debates Commission.
Biden’s campaign has been preparing Joe Biden to refuse to take part in presidential debates for several months. They blame Donald Trump while blaming Biden, even though Trump has been asking Biden to take part all along.
Instead of calling for direct negotiations between campaigns, he proposes two debates on the race for president in September and June.
Biden falsely claimed in a video released Wednesday that “Donald Trump hadn’t participated in a discussion after he lost two debates to me in 2020.”
Biden also refused to debate with any of his main rivals.
“Now he is acting like he wants to debate me again,” Biden continued. “Well, make my day, pal. I’ll even do it twice. So let’s pick the dates, Donald. I hear you’re free on Wednesdays.”
This video of Biden is only 13 seconds long and has five jump cuts.
On Monday, September 16th, the Commission on Presidential Debates will hold the first presidential discussion at Texas State University San Marcos. Next, the debate at Virginia State University in Petersburg is scheduled on Tuesday, Oct. 1. Finally, the final debate at the University of Utah Salt Lake City on Wednesday, Oct. 9th, has been scheduled. Trump’s campaign wants debates to be held before early voting starts.
Jen O’Malley Dillon is the campaign chairperson for Biden. She wrote to the Commission that the “Commission’s model”, which involves creating big spectacles at great cost for large audiences, was neither necessary nor conducive for a good discussion. Debates should be held for the enjoyment and benefit of American viewers who watch them on television and at home. They shouldn’t take place to entertain partisans, wealthy donors, or raucous political partisans.
Because the Biden campaign was so vague and noncommittal in its approach to the debates, major media outlets issued a press release that urged both candidates to publicly commit to taking part — although everyone knew it was directed towards Biden.
Biden has a very good reason for refusing to participate in the debates. His public career has been disastrous because he can’t read his teleprompter. If he speaks spontaneously forget it.
In an interview with Howard Stern last month, Biden said that he would be “happy” to debate the senator.
The offer has been accepted by President Trump.
Trump claimed that “Crooked Joe Biden’ is the worst debater of all time. He cannot even form two sentences. “Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president that the United States ever had is by far. ”
Trump stated that it was time for a debate, even if Democrats controlled the Commission on Presidential Debates, which had been caught cheating him on the debate sound levels. ”
“I’m ready to go,” he continued. “The dates that they proposed are fine. Anywhere. Anytime. Any place. Let’s see if Joe can make it to the stand-up podium.”
“I accept the dates proposed in early June and September.” “I will arrange for my own transportation.”
