I would bet that Trump refuses to debate when he gets the nomination. Hey, no one seems to care.

His people don’t want a debate, they want a rally, something to entertain their vanishingly small minds. The rest of us just want him to shut the fuck up and go away.

Tell Trump that Biden will be at the debate whether he decides to appear or not. And that Biden will get a free public town hall / softball interview if Trump isn’t there. And then follow through with it if he doesn’t appear.

Trump will just schedule a counter-town hall on Fox News. He 100% won’t meet anyone on stage between now and November.

He literally did that in 2020, and what the other responder said, happened. He scheduled his own town hall on another network, and Biden spoke for an hour at the agreed upon debate.

Kinda starting to show that it’s not about policy and all about cult of personality

Well, Trump did say that he’s “eager” to debate Biden in 2024. But, remembering back to the debate(s) with Biden in the previous campaign, it was absolutely useless and I had to turn it off. Trump would not stop shouting over Biden and everyone else.
