    It’s normal to have open mics.

    But one of Bidens requirements was muted mics.

    When Kamala became the candidate, she wanted open mics.

    trump claimed it shouldn’t be changed just because the candidate changed. And for once he had a point.

    He didn’t want it for the right reasons tho, it’s because he’s now the weakest at speaking.

        I doubt it, and I doubt it would even hurt his numbers or help Kamala at this point.

        He doesn’t want a mentally competent person to be able to point out every time he fucks up

        Just laughing when he mispronounces a word would completely derail him.

        Like, there’s just flat out no crazy thing trump could say that would change people’s minds about him. But laughing and getting flustered would make him look weak and cost him votes.

        It’d be easy to bait him, too:

        Precisely what did you mean when you said to the NABJ that I “happened to turn black”?
