Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumDo you believe Trump will actually debate the eventual 2020 Democratic nominee?
We've been having a lot of discussions here about how badly Trump will do in a debate against various candidates, or ANY of our candidates, without much discussion of whether that presidential debate will ever happen.
At the moment I'd go with the third (Maybe) option in this poll.
But I'd take anything Trump says about wanting to debate, looking forward to debates, with as much salt as I took his talk about being willing to testify under oath for Mueller.

No, definitely not. He and his aides don't see any benefit for him, and too much risk. | |

Maybe, but only if he's so far behind in the polls he feels he has nothing to lose and possibly something to gain. | |

(25,763 posts)cuz it gets media attention
In the end he will debate, not because he will win or lose, but because he has changed his mind. Just his presence will work in his favor because he is playing a game.
