It baffles me that he can't just disavow white supremacists, even if it's a dumb question. Very few people who are racist/white supremacist actually admit to being racist/white supremacists, they deny it. So by disavowing them and taking a hard stand you don't lose any of those votes anyways, because those people don't even believe they fall into that bucket.

Didn't understand the need to attack to aggressively last night either, if you're going to put out the narrative that Biden is so incompetent mentally, let him talk and expose himself.

One of the issues for Trump is that he can't really attack Joe the way he wants to.

With Hillary he had a ton of angles. She was a woman. Career politician in an outsider race. Pretty unlikable. emails.

The only thing you can really get Joe on is his status as a career politician, and we're in the middle of a world emergency so people want professional career politicians in charge.

agreed, a dumb hill to stand on when he’s already disavowed the boogeyman. and when he did let Biden ramble either Wallace bailed him out (“Antifa is an idea” - lmfao”) or Biden just flat out refused to answer the question (Democrats wanting to pack the court, who would you nominate to the SC etc)

The issue is that it becomes a catch-22. By disavowing white supremacy, you risk being seen as a white supremacist.

Imagine a candidate who needs to routinely insist he/she is not a murderer. Wouldn't some of us eventually start to wonder if it's true? It's a weak position to be in, you can't attack if you're always on the defensive. Rather than defend, you need to redirect the conversation and counter attack.

It's important to ask why certain questions are being asked, else you're liable to give an answer than can be misinterpreted or misconstrued.

Does Biden entertain questions about his son with substantial, data-driven responses? Of course not, and he'd be a fool if he did. Spending time talking about his son's admittedly dirty past doesn't help him.

Were literally in 2012 again. These fuckwits ignore Joe Biden supporting antifa.

Fox News managers don't frequent this forum. You're gonna have to head over to the Alex Jones forums to get a job.

Difference with Bidens son is Bidens son isnt running for president. The implication of what Trump does fans the flames of division. The racist portion of his base eats it up. He needs to represent America and not his base.
