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?
Great. Give Harris the time slot for a big town hall speech and Q&A. Every 15 minutes, read a reminder to everyone watching that Trump declined to debate.
Keep the two podiums and put a wax figure of Trump in a chicken suit behind the other one. Put the camera on it with dead air for a few seconds every time it’s his turn to speak.
Use cheap, low density wax and it’ll slowly melt under the studio lights over to course of the program, which would be hilarious.
Just like Rudy!
The chicken suit is too on the nose. And a cardboard cutout is probably way cheaper than a wax statue.
There’s no such thing as “too” on the nose when it comes to needling Trump and his gaggle of dipshits.
I agree with the cardboard cutout part, though: half-assed shoddiness represents him more authentically and he deserves no better.
Have someone run in half way through to spray orange spray paint on the cardboard face, call it a touch up.
Ice sculpture so as the night progresses the sculpture gets sadder looking.
I am betting that she will be there whether he is or not. No reason to miss an opportunity like that.
Just do the debate, give his time to a ticker that just says “trump was too scared to be here, I concede the rest of my time.” For every question.
Seems fair.
Christopher Hitchens once debated himself on religion when his debate opponent didn’t show up. It was pretty brilliant.
I’m trying to find the YouTube video, but I can’t find it.
HMU if you do!

Have a ticker constantly running at the bottom that #1 he backed out, #2 she only agreed to consider to debate on Fox “News” after the ABC debate which he already agreed to.
IIRC she didn’t agree to fox news. They said something like any other debates would only be considered after the scheduled one.
Updated to reflect that…tnx
Now that I’ve woken up and thinking a bit more clearly…
Trump made some statements at his mar a lago club using the ambiguity of the word “we” to imply that Harris had agreed.
For example, “We’ve agreed to do a fox news debate before the ABC one. We’ve agreed to the ABC one subject to some details which we’re still figuring out”.
The implication being we as in Trump and Harris but he was referring to we as in the trump team.
The plan was, make it sound like Harris had agreed to Fox, then she doesn’t show so he could make it sound like she had withdrawn, and then he could withdraw from the ABC one while kinda making it seem like Harris was the chicken.
IDK if that’s still the plan or maybe he’s just forgotten about that plan.
Harris and her team obviously saw the BS in what he said. he claims we agreed to the fox debate slated prior to the ABC debate. Goads her into it, then because it’s fox they just lob him softball questions all night, cut off her mic or whatever games they wanna play. Make him look good so he can then sleeze out of any debates elsewhere.
Good on her and her team for not playing into his games and just watch him squirm
