Will Trump chicken out of the presidential debate? Probably. He's a Grade-A coward. Soft Paywall

To have Biden come out during the handshake, pinch his nose and wave away the odor would be gold.

As funny as it would be, I'm against the WWE-ification Trump has brought into our politics. I want politics to be boring again.

I want politics to be boring again.

Everyone spent trumps entire term saying that. And then it happened, or at least got less crazypants. And then because it was "boring", aka sober and effective, people stopped paying attention. And now 80% of America seems to think that because they didn't hear a giant crazy story about Biden 3 times a day for the last 4 years that he hasn't actually done anything.

Honestly, cool. Still better than 4 years of racist blather from Trump in between actually doing nothing but give tax cuts to billionaires
