He's afraid of her. He knows she's smart. He knows she can think quickly and humiliate him.

He didn't worry about that with Biden. Harris will be in control of that debate stage.

Have you been in a coma for the last 6 months?

Democrats have defined headless chicken.

Now they are back to calling Trump a coward re: debates, after he probably should be arrested for attempted murder after he dismantled and exposed old Joe in their debate.

I mean can you all even get a new shtick for Kamala? Change it up?

Then please explain why he is now refusing to debate Harris?

It’s pretty arrogant of Kamala to pretend that she is the nominee when she has yet to receive even 1 delegate.

She can just hold her pretty little horses until her party gets its act together and has an official nominee since they forced the other one out.

That's all you got? The threshold is 1,976 delegates, and NBC estimates that Harris has the spoken or written backing of 1,992 delegates. Keep trying with your attacks. They're obvious and not working. It must be sad supporting an old, tired, felon and now, a coward who refuses to debate a strong black woman.

I repeat. She has zero delegates right now. He has no reason to agree to a debate until the Dems get their act together.

He has no reason to put out this announcement either other than trying to get the media to pay attention to him. He's no longer the most interesting person or the disruptor candidate in this race.

Yes! And he hates that. He is yesterday's bread and B-O-R-I-N-G.

Not only that but his attacks are tired and predictable. Too bad he honed his attacks for 3+ years on another guy. Must be tough to learn on the fly, Donald, amirite?

Uhhh...you realize that Trump debated Biden literally a few weeks ago when Trump was not the GOP nominee yet, right?

Was that "pretty arrogant" of him?

Why is debating not-yet-but-presumptive-nominee Harris a problem all of a sudden when debating not-yet-but-presumptive-nominee Biden wasn't? It's literally the exact same situation, except Trump is terrified of debating Harris now, so he's grasping at straws to make up excuses that don't even make logical sense.

He got lucky that on the first 10 minutes, the script was written. As the debate went on, Biden got much better and Trump got much worse. And the media focused on Biden and totally ignored Trump's hundreds of lies.

It’s true. If you read the transcript of that debate, Biden actually comes off better than Trump. And if you fact check it, the difference is even more apparent.

I’d like to take the drugs you’re on!

What would you disagree with? Trump "won" the first debate because of the difference in energy levels. It wasn't because of substance. This time, Harris will bring an energy level he's going to struggle to counter (prosecutor plus positivity). If he tries to bully her, he's not going to come out looking good, and she'll be able to counter anyway. He doesn't have any edge going into this one (and yes, it'll happen because she'll bludgeon him by calling him a coward until it does).

If you think Biden won why did they kick him out of the race? Also, is that not bullying to the highest degree?

Because the first 10-15 minutes was a disaster from an optics standpoint and the media as well as some key Dem insiders were relentless until last Sunday.

Yeah that’s the thing I don’t get. Trump’s definitely going to do a debate anyway. This just makes him look kind of petty.

He is pretty. I don't understand how anyone doesn't understand this by now. I also don't understand how some of you don't get this is the stuff his base loves.

I can also promise you that had the GOP done the same thing switching candidates after the first debate, the Democrats would be getting in their digs too.

Just wait til he ditches that beta, Vance.

What are you talking about? She has received thousands of delegates.

He already debated the presumptive nominee, Biden.

If democrats can’t get their act together and dumped Biden, why does he now have to debate someone else…

She is not the nominee, yet.

She had no pledged delegates that she won during the primaries. These are only verbal commitments at this point, not binding like the ones you get for winning the state primaries.

Who is to say if her poll numbers sag, they do not pick someone else at the convention. It is possible…

No, it isn't. Ohio needs the names for their ballot on Aug 7, so the dems are holding a virtual delegate count before then.

And still Trump won't put himself on a stage with Harris. That's very unlike him. I wonder if he's unwell. He's an old geriatric after all. 8 pm might be a little late for him. Most Americans don't want a president who will be in his 80s. You'd think he'd at least try to be energetic, maybe with the help of some meds.

When I see posts like this, I think about this…….

You think Trump will say anything as remotely coherent as Gabbard said?

Do you think Harris will do better than Hillary, who, after all, was a smart lawyer like Harris?

I hesitate responding to your trolling attempt. But I need to ask …….don’t you think it is quite arrogant and presumptive of Kamala to act like she is the nominee when she has yet to get a si gle delegate?

DP.

No, it isn't. She has the endorsements of anyone who matters within the party, she has the pledges of enough delegates to capture the nomination when it starts next week and she has been a fundraising titan since Sunday.

I don't know. I think it will be tight due to the obvious prejudices of our populace. But I also think we all understand Trump and his games better. I don't know who will win, though I think Harris will be a better president ( I can't believe I even have to clarify that).

The correct answer is Zero delegates.

During the primaries, Biden won most of the delegates. These are legally bound to vote for him at the convention.

Harris has received None. No legally bound. Al lane has is verbal commitments that they will vote for her at the convention, but this is not legally binding. They can switch to another candidate if they want at the convention. This could be case if her poll numbers dip or they decide someone else is strong to beat Trump. It’s unlikely, but possible.

Yes, but mostly because Trump 2024 is much less coherent than Trump 2016. He has declined a lot in the last 8 years.

Well I hope the people on this thread who pontificated about how Kamala wasn't going to be the nominee and how there was this big civil war and unrest and pretended to know everything going on inside the DNC and inside the White House citing Obama refusing to endorse her... those people who said all of that should be rightly embarrassed and ashamed because the Obamas endorsed her and everything you said was made-up BS.

I think most Republicans will not vote for a smart woman of color, no matter what party.

I think many of us will, but like the pp said, the race is going to be tighter than it should be, because a lot of independents may also be prejudiced against a woman and / or person of color.
