The one main concern with the debate are the security risks involved with allowing a convicted feIon to stand in such close proximity to a sitting president.

... First Question ... Does your Probation Officer know your Here ???

President Biden should remind America the only time Trump remained silent was when Law' enforcement and Democracy were under attack on January 6.

[cindy]

Ask each of them how many crimes they have been convicted of.

Every time DonaId opens his mouth, a nasty little lie is born and released into the world.

[melissabruhn]

Spot on Claire! Light vs Dark.
John Robert, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito must be remedied. They represent the worst unAmerican inclinations. Which is sad given their positions.

I'm sorry, but how can anybody be undecided about who they'll vote for?

[fernandodoria]

Let us not forget those two words that Hitler was saying before WW2 started, make Germany "GREAT AGAIN". Let us learn from our history, respect the millions of people all over the world that died, and let us not make the same mistakes that our ancestors made!

I wouldn’t ask trump directly “who won, ” but I would continuously reference “when I won” in the tone that implies “and everyone agrees with that.”
To me, I think President Biden should strike a message that “the GOP deserves better than you. What are you even doing up here?”

[johnnydropkicks]

Dear Republicans,

Please remember, *voting is woke.*

[ubroc]

A question I would ask is, "What foreign leader do you admire?"

[Northcountry]

Praying 🙏🏼for you America 🇺🇸, a friend 🇨🇦

[grafixnetz]

The last line in Biden's introductory statement should be:
"I apologise to my opponent for me having an unfair advantage. He's under a gag order and I'm not".

[us-Bahn]

For people who still haven’t made up their minds about this monster there’s absolutely no hope.

TRUMP'S 78 YEARS OLD. THE 7 IS SILENT.

[jandrews]

Why were Biden and trump both referred to as Mr President? I thought they were both to be referred to as Mr.
When trump was asked if he would accept the result of this election and DID NOT reply with a resounding “of course I will” with no qualifiers, why was his ambivalence not pursued?
Why was trump allowed to slop over his time but the President was sharply cut off mid-word?
Why was this debate not postponed until the President had recovered better from his cold?

Did I detect some subtle favour towards trump?

[jackbass]

If trump steals the next election how much is he going to be charging for pardons in 2025. How many of his family members will be part of the cabinet? How much will it cost a private citizen for a cabinet position or an ambassadorship? Americans want to know how rich you have to be to get the probation trump special treatment?

[happytraveller]

Respectfully, the first question that President Biden should ask 45 is this: if you say the country is in such bad shape and it's a failing country, why do you want to be president of a loser country??

[jeffbarney]

The first question should be, "Does your Probation Officer know you're here?"

[Mclemk]

Enough about Joe's age He appears old because he has a deliberate walk and he's pensive when he speaks, however he's 100% mentally sharp which is called sage
