I would much rather they have the mute button. Put them in soundproof booths so he can't talk over her when it's not his turn.

I'm guessing the Harris campaign wants muted mikes as well and are manipulating the very stable genius into going along...

Yeah it's hard to say what they really want at the debate. What is clear is that they know just how to use these opportunities to get under his skin

I don't they'd mind either outcome, I think they have a solid play they can run in either event:

  • Muted mics - "Trump's own team thinks he can't manage to act presidential for 90 minutes!"
  • Unmuted mics - "Look at all these clips of Trump not acting presidential during our debate!"

Yep! I have the feeling that they hired a few narcissism specialists to help play Trump. He keeps falling for their obvious traps.

I don't know, he's spiraling hard. This might be them wanting to show America how he acts. He will no doubt say weird stuff and make a fool of himself. It also opens the door for Harris to interrupt him as well, which I don't see him handling well. I think this is a solid move honestly.

I would much rather him be thrown into a prison cell and his assets seized to pay back all the unpaid bills he has collected over the decades.

They're both put into soundproof booths, but make sure the orange turd's mic is always on so everyone knows exactly what he says...get incriminating
