"I Hear You’re Free On Wednesdays"

Biden Trolls Trump Into Disastrous Debate Deal

“I hear you’re free on Wednesdays,” winked Joe Biden yesterday as he threw down the proverbial gauntlet to Donald Trump and demanded two debates outside the fusty and broken confines of the formats favored by the Commission on Presidential Debates.

It was an epic act of trolling, a sucker play, a snare for unwary travelers.

Trump accepted.

Because, of course, he did.

Trump thinks these debates are a reset for him, but they’re absolutely the opposite.

They’re a wake-up call, a reminder, a slap back to reality.

All Trump’s petty, seething rage, his overwhelming ego and malice, the greasy clown visage with his porcine eyes darting and squinting, the sniffing and snuffling, the obvious lies of Candidate Munchausen will hit Americans in the face again.

Voters see that the choice isn’t a return to some halcyon golden era but of four more years of Trump, his voice an endless whine of complaint and self-pity, his jowly countenance full-frame on every screen, his plans for America as dark and rotten as his soul.

I will make a modest prediction today: these debates will feature Joe Biden delivering the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique against Donald Trump. I know it’s popular to hand-wring and panic over Biden’s acuity, but I am firmly convinced it’s Trump who will fight an uphill battle on the debate stage.
