I watched ABC FAKE NEWS this morning, both lightweight reporter Jonathan Carl’s(K?) ridiculous and biased interview of Tom Cotton (who was fantastic!), and their so-called Panel of Trump Haters, and I ask, why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on that network?

Who's surprised he's trying to chicken out?

he's trying to dodge debates like he dodged Vietnam and that bullet.

Dodging them like Tiffany's phone calls.

Smells like his adult diapers are already full ;-)

Trump just upset because it turns out facts don't care about his feelings.

appropriate username!

He can’t do the debate because of woke. And bone spurs.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

Woke is old and busted now - DEI is where they're at now. Still the same meaningless racist nonsense the way they use it though.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago

I think literally everyone called this one.

Like, even his biggest supporters didn't expect him to not chicken out.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

What a wimp

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He should do it of the 'FAKE' election too. You know he doesn't actually want to do the work anyway.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I mean he called the last election fake, so

And there was much rejoicing.

Now, who's going to eat his minstrels?

Keep running you fucking coward

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I'm so glad they don't have any time to replace him. Almost every right leaning person I know is so irritable and volatile lately. They know what's coming

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Republicans cannot replace Trump. He's got the party by the balls. His daughter in law is the chair of the party.

He's also funneling all donations to the party into his own pocket.

When Trump loses, the Republican party will implode under all the fraud. I'm all for it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

huh, so my original hopes are just taking longer than I thought. in 2016 I was saying that his term will be a waking-up moment for America, like a rock bottom.

I keep encouraging republicans that talk about RFK. "write him in! do it!"

[–] [email protected] 46 points 2 weeks ago

Why did Donald Trump cross the road?

He was running away from a debate with Harris.

What a wanker

[–] [email protected] 61 points 3 weeks ago

But he wants to debate on Fox. The station that was held legally liable for lying for him. The station that has to admit to being "entertainment" not news. Yeah, that's a better choice.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 3 weeks ago

Donald Trump is a coward. But we all knew that already.
