Donald Trump flubbed the last debate. His allies know it, his fundraisers know it—but that doesn’t mean they’re willing to admit it.
On Thursday, the Republican presidential nominee announced that he had decided not to debate Vice President Kamala Harris for a second time, writing in a lengthy rant on Truth Social that “THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!” (Apparently he’s counting his debate against Joe Biden.)
But less than 24 hours after the major reversal, Trump’s team was already working to explain away why the country would be getting less of their candidate.
Let it be known that dear leader has backed down from a debate with…
gasps
A black woman
Donald Trump “won” against Biden. Donald Trump wanted to debate him again.
Donald Trump “won” against Harris. Donald Trump says only the losers want a rematch.
Donald Trump “won” against Biden. Donald Trump wanted to debate him again.
The American people lost that debate.
No… it was the turning point to move to Harris. So in hindsight something good came of it, no?
Trump giving some tiny dick, tiny rally energy there.
Not the first time he’s run from a debate.
Back before the 2016 election Trump challenged Bernie Sanders to a debate. Bernie accepted and Trump had to backtrack.
I just wanna know how all the “tough guy/anti-snowflake” types all landed on the worlds most massive pussy/coward, and thought “here’s our guy, he’s a business man, the only job the whole world that carries the well known and somehow normalized intent to fuck you over no matter what for a dollar. He’ll look out for my interests.”
Most gullible turds speedrun any% world record.
Ah ha ha ha! That’s the funniest thing, most wonderful thing I’ve heard all week. Keep the GOP scrambling, keep them on the defensive. Brilliant!

He was so thrown off. Debate summary:
.
Kamala: This is a man easily led around by his ego by people like Putin and Kim Jong Un.
.
Trump: But immigrants. Democrats kill babies after they’re born.
.
Moderator: Sir, in none of the 50 states are they killing babies after they are born.
.
Trump: But immigrants. Kamala isn’t about law and order.
.
Kamala: I’ve locked people up. I’ll lock you up.
.
Trump: But immigrants. Kamala wants to take away your guns.
.
Kamala: I own a gun.
.
Moderator: Question Kamala doesn’t want to or can’t answer.
.
Kamala: Let me invite you to one of Trumps rallies. Where the crowd sizes are small and people start to leave out of boredom.
.
Trump: Takes bait, thus proving Kamala’s opening remark.
.
Also Trump: But immigrants. They’re eating the cats and dogs.
.
Moderator: Sir, spoiler alert, they’re not eating the cats and dogs. Per the mayor or Springfield, there are no reports of missing animals.
.
Trump, looking every one of his 78 years: But immigrants. They’re eating the cats and dogs. I saw it on the television.
.
Kamala: … 🙄😮😧🙄😃😄🙄…
.
Moderator: Sir, they’re not eating the cats and dogs.
.
Trump, after debate: I clearly won. The only reason they want another debate is because they lost, that’s what losers do, ask for a rematch.
.
Also, there’s a school of thought out there that Trump has a little crush on Kamala. Creepy, but credible. They’re citing a prior 9/11 memorial get together where you see him on camera more or less asking for an introduction to her. If it’s true, she knows. She’s been gorgeous her whole life, has navigated that garbage for ~45yrs now. She knows. If it’s there she knows. And she stepped into his personal bubble to shake hands at the very start. He was a little startled. If he is indeed crushing, that would set a guy like Trump back on his heels even more so than the usual. He doesn’t even have a shitty little nickname for her, why? Paints the crowd size/bored dig in a new light as well.
That and she had moderate conservative answers for everything. He didn’t know how to debate that.
Yeah the handshake thing was a power move. I feel like I saw a tiny hesitation before she stepped up to him, probably because you are right about him, she’s a smart woman and has to find him repulsive. But yeah, that handshake put him on the defensive right from the start. And when he started on about people eating cats she seemed honestly amused, which was far more effective than any rebuttal.
When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Donald turned about And gallantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, He beat a very brave retreat, Bravest of the brave, Sir Donald.
Donald Trump flubbed the last debate.
Well that’s certainly one of the more generous renditions of the debate I’ve heard, lol— most everyone else describes it as somewhere between an “evisceration” and a “disembowelment”.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Kamala spanked Trump so hard, he owes her $130,000.
Rofl
Simply run the debate but with Kamala talking to a Trump cardboard cut out.
The cardboard cut out would actually do better than Trump. It wouldn’t get baited into talking about crowd size and then babbling conspiracy theory about some migrant eating dogs and cats.
