But ABC immediately stepped in and invited Biden to participate in a town hall meeting, which he accepted, for the same evening.

Quit worrying what others "think" and start doing your own.

The debates do nothing anyway, and that they can't get an unbiased moderator makes it worth less than nothing. Seriously, I can't stomach watching Biden the lady/little girl groper, so without him on the same stage as Trump, I can actually watch!

All I know is if Trump did not get Covid ..... the debate commission would NEVER have decided to take it to a VIRAL debate.
So does anyone blame Biden?

Then TRUMP is the one who chose NOT TO DO THE DEBATE. So again does anyone then blame Biden?
* I agree with this bold sentence below also.....

I will add also -- TRUMP LEFT HIS ONLY DEBATE WITH BIDEN TO DEFINE HIS 2020 ELECTION NEAR ITS CLIMAX And THIS IS WHAT WILL GO DOWN IN INFAMY OR HISTORY AS ---- HOW NOT TO DO A DEBATE..... DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY BLAME THE MODERATOR????? I DO NOT.

Trump does not let a moderator tell him to calm down and his time is up. WOULD NOT MATTER WHOM IT WAS.

Who cares? Most people have already decided who they are going to vote for.

IMO undecideds don't deserve to vote lol, but they will simply have to decide based on something other than a debate.
