I feel like this is a smart move by Donald because we’re still in this fugue state where we’re almost certain Kamala is the nominee but we’re not even sure, and the DNC is literally 3 weeks away with the actual election fast approaching lmao. Nobody has seen Kamala on the campaign trail, people barely know her and the debate would be giving her added publicity.

On the other hand it might be a good thing for her, noone knows her so she’s just some generic Dem candidate vs bigbad baby that you can just VoteBlue for

I want to ask these people if they remember 4 years ago when they were all crying tears of joy at Biden's inauguration. I don't think they were necessarily excited to vote for him, but after the inauguration they were all giving us that teary-eyed "I haven't felt this way about our country since Obama" and "We finally have a country again." How did that work out?

While we're at it I ALSO want to ask these people if they remember 8 years ago when they were all fawning over JD Vance's book as the skeleton key that explains the rise of Trump
