      I agree, it was quite interesting to see how little applicability the spectacle of that sort of a debate has to the actual business and responsibilities of being the president. Otherwise, we should just appoint the current winner of "Jeopardy" as the president each year.

      Trump is on a hard fade into likely full Alzheimer's. The glib Gish Galloper of 2016 is long gone. So is the interrupting proven liar of 2020. All he is now is a projection artist that foolishly repeats the phrases his dementia addled mind can come up with, like "Biden can't put 2 sentences together". His handlers will never allow him to debate in a strict moderated forum, where he has no audience to feed off of.

      FACTS: "The Trump hush money case is underway in New York. Of all legal cases against Trump, this one is the weakest and most absurd of all. It involves an alleged misdemeanor on which the statute of limitations has already expired, in conjunction with another alleged misdemeanor on which the statute of limitations has also expired, both part of an alleged election interference conspiracy that other courts have already said isn’t a crime. Got that? Also, the bookkeeping violation supposedly involving election interference took place after the election was already over. Even liberal legal scholars can’t find a crime here." --J.

      Philosophy major here. Debates are driven to produce a winner. True dialog, in which there is a thesis and an antithesis, produce a higher or greater understanding of the subject in question. Debates could be conducted in accord with the logical rules of inference and an astute moderator, knowledgeable in biases and fallacies in which points are deducted, refereeing the dialog or arguments, and thereby determining a winner. There are formal rules for every kind of game or contest. However, debate is one contest that needs more formal structure and fundamental modifications that, if studied and engaged in properly, would produce not only better debaters, but superlative thinkers as well.
