Exactly Mary. I think this debate will be silly bc like you said no one will bother to fact check him and will offer softball questions. My hope is that Kamala will sting him with educated and prosecutorial remarks

What debate? Trump pulled out of the scheduled ABC debate, and Harris certainly won't agree to his unilaterally scheduled Fox debate. To do so would be to submit to his bullying and to the pro-Trump network. She's much too smart to do that.
My hope also, Henry. SheтАЩd be ill-advised to submit to Fox тАЬmoderatorsтАЭ amid a packed MAGA crowd. She doesnтАЩt need to sacrifice herself in this way. DonтАЩt do it, Madam President-to-be. YouтАЩre above it, girl.
I believe President-to-Be Harris should make a counter offer. The Manhattan judge would moderate the debate. Have a Federal Prosecutor ask questions. Agent Orange can pick one of his lawyers to also ask questions. It can be a Zoom meeting. No audience.
Yesterday, on Zoom, I saw Civil War historian Allen Guelzo speak about the Lincoln-Douglas senatorial debates of 1858. Each candidate came up to the single podium and they spoke in turn for a prescribed length of time -- no moderators, no questions. He suggested that we return to that method.
Except there would need to be an auto-mute timer on the microphones. No way DT will stick to a time limit. Visible to countdown clocks so everyone knows the limits. Also I suggest separate sound-proofed booths that can be darkened at the end of the time limit. Would make for an interesting тАЬdebateтАЭ.
Donald would go off on a rant cut-off midway and Kamala would answer that same question in a coherent and complete manner that actually makes sense when she finished within the time limit.
So they canтАЩt hear the audience. Both can hear the questions asked and each otherтАЩs answer until the timer cuts him off. Also each debater should be able to control the volume of the opponent. That way Dump can choose not listen to Kamala can listen to him and refute as needed.
I just watched Brian Tyler Cohen on the тАЬdebateтАЭ: https://youtu.be/-s204a0oXBk?si=GRS2SJMr6RyFurx4. Most likely Trump will not be at the тАЬdebate,тАЭ and Harris will be able to use her time (and his) to further destroy him and also continue to tell us her plans for the betterment of our country and ALL its people (not just the very rich). And prevent the destruction of our democracy.
Faux "news" will cancel the debate as soon as it's clear The Donald is pulling out.
But, on second thought, maybe they won't. Maybe they are greedy enough for ratings and advertising $$$ that they would seize the moment with their exclusive coverage. Maybe they secretly want The Donald to just go away already! Maybe they will position Kamala as a misguided Democrat who nonetheless they can work with.
Ok. I'm done with tonight's manifestation of
a better, almost civil and cooperative future with our Republican counterparts. Back to reality lease my dreams get carried away.
He can prevent her from doing that with his intrusive bullying, lying, distracting,and nonsensical speech patterns. He wonтАЩt just stand there and let her give him a piece of her mind.
Agree. He should NOT be allowed to make any rules. Forget Fox. They should not even be eligible to host a debateтАФthey were forced to settle a defamation suit with Dominion for $787.5 million for broadcasting false statements about Dominion. They are election deniers so they should be denied. Stick with ABC or walk away. Kamala will eat him alive anyway.

I'm not sure what you mean by soundproofed. They ought to hear what each other says so that they can reply to each other's comments.

She is going to make mincemeat out of him
He can prevent her from doing that with his intrusive bullying, lying, distracting,and nonsensical speech patterns. He wonтАЩt just stand there and let her give him a piece of her mind.
And I wonder about the people who will be in the live audience? Hand-chosen and trained how to respond? No, keep him to what he agreed to.
She won't even break a sweat. And she'll be laughing at him just to piss him off and make him spew his nonsensical verbal vomit.
Of. Course, Trumpists will call her that mean & evil women. But she's stronger than him
There's not going to be a September 4 "debate."

Right you are!
