And donald trump, apparently agreeing on something most ben calendar that neither biden shen and thats unprecedented in modern history. It all came together quite suddenly, i would say on wednesday morning following this challenge from biden and trump lost two debates to me in 20 0. 20 that he hadnt shown up for debate. Now hes acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day pal. Ill even do it twice. So lets pick the dates i hear youre free on wednesdays oh, okay.
