    “Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out,” Tyler said. “He needs to stop playing games and show up to the debate he already committed to on Sept 10. The vice president will be there one way or the other to take the opportunity to speak to a prime time national audience.”

    Tyler said the Harris team would be “happy to discuss further debates after the one both campaigns have already agreed to.”

    “Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he’s too scared to show up on the 10th,” Tyler added.

    I really like how they’re calling out his weird, old man games at every turn.

      Seriously.

      Stop bending over for the opposition. Democrats for the past 25 years kept compromising while Republicans got what they want and then moved the line.

    She should just take all the crazy stupid s*** he’s been saying on the campaign trail and debate against it.

      That would be great. If Trump doesn’t come she can just take his turn for him, “What former President Trump, who was to scared to be here, has stated on the issue…”

        Or just use canned video of him talking, complete with date/time/location stamp and a QR code to the full video so nobody accuses them of taking things out of context.

          Yes. They can then string segments of different videos together for the debate so Trump stays on topic for the first time ever.

      I love this but then there’s going to be a million conspiracies about how the liberal elite are trying to replace Don with a double.

        That’ll probably happen no matter what. I said they should do it anyway. Ignore the fucking crazy assholes!

      No, if he shows up at the last minute, and complies with the pre-negotiated terms, they should let him in. If he shows up at the last minute and complains about he fact-checkers or the moderators or the lack of couches, to try to renegotiate things at the last minute, they should just tell him to pound sand.
