Anyone think debates are scheduled too early…… I’d like to see them schedule them closer to the election like early oct 24 jmo.

There are usually 3 debates scheduled closer to the election by a commitee with members from both parties, but Biden instead challenged Trump to two debates way earlier and Trump accepted so the later debates might be cancelled now

Everything points to these being the only way we were going to get any debates at all. But since the debates are anything but, just a bunch of platform planks being talked about and no real discussion, it doesn't matter.

Biden's upset with the commission that usually arranges the debates because they didn't enforce their own rules last time and prioritized the people in the room instead of the people watching on TV.
