I’ve been thinking about what might happen if there is, in fact, a presidential debate.

As a narcissist, trump can’t tolerate any criticism or laying of blame on him. I’d love to see Biden push that button repeatedly, which would guarantee the orange bloat losing it.

Biden should make every remark a put down, a sarcastic dig or statement blaming the SCROTUS for the current situation. He shouldn’t engage with the insults we know rump will produce, just keep pushing that button, over and over.

I realize that Joe will need to lay out a vision for the future and positive reasons to vote for him, but ads can make that argument. Getting rump to lose it and start raging and ranting during the debate might just help people see how morally, intellectually and emotionally unfit he is for the office, at least some who don’t pay attention.

I’d also love to see Biden flat out call rump a liar and con man, but I doubt that will happen. On the other hand, pointing out that only 3 miles of new wall has been constructed, that the economy is in the dumpster, that unemployment is far above the level at the start of the term, that over a hundred thousand Americans have died due to his incompetence, etc. will put rump on the defensive where it really hurts.

Donald, tell us how destroying the strong economy you inherited from our administration makes America great? Donald, tell us how your response to COVID, a response which has other countries saying they pity the US and which has resulted in over a hundred thousand dead makes America great?

I’d wager his response would be a spectacular eruption of bile, name calling, DARVO and blaming others. And he’d be unable to continue after, refusing to let go of the narcissistic injury.

Hey, a cranky old guy can dream.
