I feel like this is a smart move by Donald because we’re still in this fugue state where we’re almost certain Kamala is the nominee but we’re not even sure, and the DNC is literally 3 weeks away with the actual election fast approaching lmao. Nobody has seen Kamala on the campaign trail, people barely know her and the debate would be giving her added publicity.

On the other hand it might be a good thing for her, noone knows her so she’s just some generic Dem candidate vs bigbad baby that you can just VoteBlue for

It's probably a strategic maneuver, but I hope it's actually because he's taking a turn for the worse, and the republicans are also going to have to awkwardly shuffle him off for some random candidate. It would be so funny.

No way the republicans can change him, the chuds would probably set fire to the party

Imagine if he dies before the election after surviving the assassination attempt with no time to get anybody else in the running, so the party has to converge around JD Vance.
