Due to Donald Trump being infected with COVID-19 while having zero disregard in taking the precautions to not infect anyone else with the deadly disease, the Commission on Presidential Debates has determined that the next debate between himself and Joe Biden on October 15 will be virtual.
However, Trump who’s in the middle of a steroid regiment as a result of his coronavirus diagnosis called into Maria Bartiromo’s Fox Business show Thursday morning saying he would not “waste his time” with a virtual debate after Biden’s campaign agreed to the format.
Trump is still under the impression that he won the first debate against Biden which was widely regarded as an unmitigated shit show in large part due to the clownish behavior from the President of the United States.
Not only that, Trump and his campaign have essentially given the Debate Commission no other choice but to resort to this format against considering Trump’s disregard for other people while he’s infected with a virus that’s already killed over 211,000 people in the United States thus far. Additionally, though, Trump, the White House, and his campaign simply cannot be trusted since they still refuse to disclose his last negative coronavirus test and definitely cannot be counted on to take a test prior to an in-person debate.
The second debate next week is set up to be a town hall and the Debate Commission hasn’t said whether they’ll cancel it if Trump doesn’t show up. So we could basically have Joe Biden who has a commanding lead over Trump in the polls with less than four weeks until the election answering vital questions from voters.
