Never before has a Republican or Democratic Presidential nominee with a criminal record, convictions and multiple indictments participate in a televised Presidential debate. No such candidate would have been allowed to debate in the past because such a person would have never been nominated by his party to be the nominee. That all changed with the Trump/GOP extreme ideology and its un-American, anti-Democratic rhetoric and their attack on everything American. Unfortunately, the media enabled their toxic rhetoric
For the first time ever in the 2024 Presidential debates, one candidate, Donald Trump will bring his corruptive record which everyone knows of to the debates, while President Joe Biden will bring his character that has served the people well in congress and the White House. The American people know what each would do if re-elected because they already have a record. The uninformed voter will learn noting from the debates because it is a media event. Where the debaters stand on the issues is well known and questions from the panel will prove to be nonsense because answers are limited to two minutes and President do not make decisions in two minutes. Issues are more time consuming because a President hears comments from his advisers before making decisions. So, the viewers will learn nothing from the answers.
The shame that the GOP has cast on America's political system by allowing such a corrupted person to be its party's Presidential nominee is shameless and a danger to American democracy and the freedom enjoyed by its people.
This writer will not tune into the 2024 debates because the outcome is already known. PolitiDose commentary predicted what would take place on Trump's watch after the 2016 election and what would take place on Biden's watch after the 2020 elections. Both of those predictions came true.
