[Sweet and Savoury]

I predict a surprisingly strong Biden performance, the Inner Party wouldn't let him go on if they didn't have a plan

Still, I'm sure Trump wont make it easy for him.

My bet is a hidden ear piece.

 

[Gorillad Cheese]

I'm guessing absolutely nothing interesting will happen.

 

[Robert James]

I got two predictions for the debate

1. Biden will be on enough uppers to keep him coherent for the first 3/4rs of the debate the last quarter will focus on the donald once they realize Biden is getting off his high.
2.Donalds microphone will be cut off whenever he starts laying into Biden.

I just hope biden slips and we get him to use some old timey racial slur, I would give my left arm to get a presidential candidate to use the term spear chucker.

Nah, my guess is that they drilled like 4 different rehearsed soundbytes until Biden could say them in his sleep. Then he just picks one at random and pivots to that, no matter what the question is. It'll be a shit performance, but not shit enough to nuke his campaign for the people voting not-Trump, given how he'll automatically be declared the victor by the MSM.

My optimistic hope is that Trump's trash talking game is on point, it gets Joe's temper up, and he goes off-script. If he's going to shoot himself in the foot, that's when it would happen. Only problem is that the moderator is never-Trumper RINO who will likely cover the shit out of Biden and break things up just when it's getting interesting.

 

[Chin of Campbell]

Isn't the point of having a moderator to be someone who is unaffiliated? It's just going to be Trump vs. the Moderator and also sometimes Joe will wake up to ramble like Mermaid Man for a second.

 

[Dan Abrams]

What I would give for an analysis of what's in Biden's blood when he steps in there...

Child blood transfusions and adrenochrome shots. It helped Hillary get through the election despite passing out all the time and coughing up green goop into her water.

I'm putting some chips down on him saying "spooks".

Only the legacy media has the clout to officiate such a prestigious event. Our prole opinions on the matter are worthless.

 

[Marissa Moira]

Biden is going to wreck Trump just like he did Paul Ryan.

You'd think, but here are some Chris Wallace greatest hits:

- Called Blasey Ford, the main Kavanaugh accuser, "extremely emotional, extremely raw, and extremely credible".
- Argued to extend the impeachment circus by calling additional witnesses like Bolton (despite the Clinton impeachment precedent).
- Interviewed Trump in July 2020, and "fact-checked" him aggressively on whether Joe Biden wanted to defund the police (it's one of the many issues Biden has waffled on, making Trump's claim somewhat accurate).

And this is the Fox representative, the other two moderators are from C-SPAN and NBC... I'm sure they'll be completely impartial.

 

[millais]

The bar for what constitutes a win will be set very low, like how it was for Biden's nomination acceptance speech at the convention. No matter how poor his performance, as long as he doesn't have a full blown dementia episode on camera, it will be possible to spin the result as a win or a stalemate at worst.

This is why I'm expecting it to be a Trump vs Wallace debate.

 

[Slimy Time]

Biden is going to wreck Trump just like he did Paul Ryan.

He's going to need to be pumped full of horse vitamins and minerals to even come close to pulling a performance like he did there. Eight years since then have not been kind to his brain.

 

[No. 7 cat]

Most likely both, but Biden wins if he can leave the arena not collapsed on a stretcher.

Trump needs to be utterly superlative, and Joe not die or sound too foolish to win. Fake News will declare Joe the winner regardless.

If Joe shits himself, they'll say it's in solidarity with TrumpHitler's millions of victims, or something.

My bet is a hidden ear piece.

Sleepy Joe will be dosed with industrial quantities of meds to keep coherent. Maybe a hidden earpiece, but Joe might start poking it on camera.

 

[Hungry Hungry Bitch]

You think Trump campaign is smart enough to predict usage of an ear piece and perhaps be able to listen in on it and record everything for future memes?

 

[The Door]

Just put both of them in the colosseum. Have a duel to the death to find the one most worthy to rule the world’s mightiest nation.

 

[Happy Fish]

Trump should definitely try to get him to talk on classism issues and see how long it takes for Biden to conflate class and race.

 

[Slimy Time]

Trump needs to

Sleepy Joe will be dosed with industrial quantities of meds to keep coherent. Maybe a hidden earpiece, but Joe might start poking it on camera.

As much as I want to see Biden gaffe it up, I think he will be more coherent and do better than expected. He will be pumped full of horse vitamins and chemicals to make him his Sanders debate levels of coherent.

Expect him to continously call a lid following the debate as his body crashes from the steroids and other life giving chemicals are flushed from his system.

 

[Happy Fish]

Biden's senility won't go away with uppers, but Trump does need to be on his A game. The Democrats are already out in the open causing violence and cheating the election. To expect anything less than dirty tricks and desperation is to forfeit.

 

[Don't Tread on Me]

Oh boy. Yet another debate where there is an exorbitant focus on the economy, which the president can barely effect, but no time given to foreign policy, when the president is the Head of State and the Commander in Chief.

 

[Sneed's Feed And Seed]

no commercial breaks

What's the over-under on Joe Biden pissing/shitting himself on stage?
