I’m also unsure that the first conversation between Donald Trump and Joe Biden will actually start.
The majority of the internet appears concerned that it will.

For instance, last month, MSNBC’s Alex Wagner lamented that Donald Trump may be held to a much lower standard than Biden will be in future debates, and even claimed that Biden must overcome a” fundamental drawback.”
” It now seems like the bar that Biden must clear is significantly higher than the one Trump must clear.” Which is practically,’ Is he dead?’ ‘ Is he standing?’ ‘ Are there terms coming out of his jaws?'” Collins claimed.
Actually? For months now, Trump has been setting a low bar for Joe Biden, saying things like he” ca n’t put two sentences together”. Trump allegedly did so in error, according to Senate Republicans who spoke to The Hill next month. ” They say Trump challenges lowering the floor for Biden to the point that a good performance, certainly a magnificent one, will help the leader”, the report explained. They claim it’s a common source of frustration because Trump even raised expectations for Biden in advance of the first 2020 conversation, which turned out to be a disastrous decision.
Wagner’s suggestion that Trump is the one who struggles with dementia is humorous serves as a small club for him. ” The point he’s up it standing, still talking is plenty, the Trump team thinks, to placate people or stop them from thinking he’s significantly older. And thus far, they seem to be correct”, she said. Given the ironic tirades and non-sequiturs that are now a part of his normal routine, the truth of the matter is that there is way more investigation on President Biden than on former President Trump.

In the weeks leading up to what will turn out to be a very significant inflection point for this plan, Wagner continued,” I wonder if there is any method for Biden to transcend what seems like a fundamental risk.”
Can someone explain how Joe Biden, whose strategy set the terms of the conversation, is at a structural risk? Although the rules they proposed, which Trump consented to, were meant to benefit Joe Biden, Wagner feels the need to proactively justify Biden’s anticipated poor performance. Not only will there be no crowd provide, but there will be no opening remarks, microphones will be muted when it’s not the president’s change, and it will be just one minute, not the regular 90 minutes. The Trump campaign reportedly sought to renegotiate the conversation guidelines to help Joe Biden to be seated, despite all these guidelines that Biden desired this year.
Despite this, Wagner’s guest, Susan Glasser of The New Yorker, agreed that Biden is the disadvantaged one. Glasser insisted that Biden has a” tougher task” compared to Trump, because, she says, his supporters “do n’t hold him accountable to the same standards as other public officials in this country”.
The difficulty with vying for Trump for Biden is that it’s not really a head-to-head contest where both candidates are being dealt the same terms, according to Glasser.

It’s hilarious how the leftist media wants you to believe that Joe Biden is the one with a” structural disadvantage” in the debates. His campaign came up with the rules, for crying out loud. And you can bet that they will always assert that Biden triumphed in the debate regardless of what happens.
