Perhaps. I read, I don't spend a lot of time watching news videos. I haven't watched Biden enough to know how well he could handle teleprompters or other means of coaching.

Once again we agree. A teleprompter would only confuse Trump and put him off his game. But, that is only half the story. With Biden it is a whole different story.

Trump can't read a teleprompter well enough to fool anyone. Not like Obama could. If he's being coached it will be obvious

Agreed. If national averages

Agreed. If national averages of polling are about the same and Biden appears to be even slightly ahead I would expect him to dodge a debate. If they did do an online debate in their own respective studios I would like the first question to be whether or not they had a computer screen or teleprompter in view or hearing device or any other form of coaching help in play.

It would be odd for Trump to turn down a debate.

Sorry to not be clear. First sentence in italics quotes AA and the rest is my own composition of my own thoughts.

Are you quoting somebody in the second paragraph or speaking for yourself? The format is confusing.

This is why he probably won't agree to debates. Debates would be breaking the delusional narratives right and left.

Whether one candidate or the other would dodge a debate is an interesting question. I think Trump would probably like a debate. His showing of his long established delusionary thinking would not change many minds on either side while Biden, if he was having one of his more and more common bad days might show up as no longer up to the task of answering even a softball question, much less being President. Of course the case could be made that that wouldn’t change many minds either as to who to vote for. [I will vote to him if he lasts that long] Here’s hoping the *interesting* times ahead are not too far into the Chinese sense of the old saying.

I took Yglesias' point more

I took Yglesias' point more to be that the people experiencing the shortages are naturally skeptical about explanations why the past owners of the bodega are responsible for why they do not stock what they do not have now.

A raised eyebrow sometimes is more powerful than a word.
