ptheland: OK. I can accept that as a possibility. The tables are tilted against Trump...

You're actually buying into that nonsense?

The convicted felon has a history of complaining that the world is against him and the debates are always rigged. What's going on here is obvious:

1.) CNN hates the rapey guy so despite agreeing to the debate weeks ago -- remember, the convicted felon said “anywhere, any time, any place” -- it's now just so unfair and he might lose the debate to a juiced up Biden, so...;

2.) Biden better agree to be tested for drugs -- Dr. CandyMan Ronnie Johnson-Jackson just posted a letter he wrote to president Biden, on official stationery and everything, demanding the president take drug tests both before and after the debate.

In short, any bad outcome for the convicted felon and rapist is null and void.

Now considering that Trump is perhaps the biggest media spotlight whore in the world it's unlikely he will back out of the debates (as he did during the primaries) but he's certainly laying the groundwork for taking that off ramp. Whatever happens, Trump will declare victory, post some Survey Monkey survey that shows he won the debate 92%-8%, but will still say the debate was rigged, CNN cheated by giving Biden the questions ahead of time -- that one is all over Xhitter right now -- the hosts disrespected him and his supporters, and the studio lights were in his eyes.

Or he will back out, crying that he had no other recourse considering how unfairly "the tables were tilted against him".
