President Biden recently challenged Trump to a debate. But there’s a shocking reason behind it.
And now Joe Biden’s about to learn the hard way that karma is a witch after the reason he’s been forced to debate Trump was revealed.
President Joe Biden thought he was being a tough guy when he and his team released a video challenging former President Donald Trump to a debate since everyone knows that the two are on a collision course for the ballots this November.
Furthermore, the political discourse over the past several months has largely been that Joe Biden could never perform well in a political debate at the ripe age of 81-years-old, soon to be 82 before he’d even be re-inaugurated for a potential second term.
Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020. Since then, he hasn’t shown up for a debate.
Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again.

But Joe Biden isn’t the tough guy he thinks he is. He’s just putting this face on, when in reality, he’s being forced to debate. Some are suggesting that the Democrat Party has given Joe Biden an ultimatum to debate Trump because of this one obvious reason.
See, there’s something Joe Biden has in common with Presidents Ford, Jimmy Carter, George Bush Sr., and Donald Trump himself. What is that? They were all dealing with approval ratings that were well under the water, sometimes due to a toxic political atmosphere. CNN themselves are admitting this.
CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten remarked on Thursday that President Joe Biden’s decision to agree to an early debate with former President Donald Trump might be influenced by a historical trend that suggests poor reelection prospects for incumbents.
According to the RealClearPolitics average, Trump is leading Biden by 1.1% nationwide. A recent New York Times/Siena College poll also shows Trump ahead by 13% among likely voters in Nevada, 9% in Georgia, and 6% in Arizona. On CNN News Central, Enten explained that incumbents who head into presidential debates trailing their competitors have historically lost reelection. This could be why Biden has opted for an earlier debate.
“I think he wants to sort of upset the apple cart here because incumbents trailing going into the first debate, look at this. Jerry Ford in 1976, Jimmy Carter in ’80, George H.W. Bush in 1992, and Donald Trump, of course, in 2020. What do all four of these have in common besides being good-looking men? They all lost reelection,” Enten shared during the CNN segment.
“So Joe Biden is trying to say, wait a minute, I look at this history, I don’t like this history, I want to change it up a little bit. Maybe if I can get the debates going earlier, maybe if I have a good debate all of a sudden I can change the polling, because at this point, Joe Biden needs something to change. Because if it doesn’t, he’s going to end up like these four men on the screen.”
On Wednesday, Biden challenged Trump to two televised debates, proposing conditions such as no live audience and cutting off microphones during the other candidate’s speaking time. Both candidates accepted CNN’s offer for a June 27 debate.
Enten highlighted on Monday that Trump’s lead in the Sun Belt states of Nevada, Georgia, and Arizona is troubling for Biden’s reelection chances.
“These Sun Belt battleground states, frankly, for the Joe Biden campaign, these numbers are an absolute disaster,” he said. “The smallest lead is in Arizona for Donald Trump, he’s up six. Look at this, nine in Georgia, 13 in Nevada. My goodness gracious, my god. That is a hugely — no Democrat has lost that state since John Kerry lost it back in 2004.”
The current “come-to-Jesus” moment occuring for the radical Leftists right now about Joe Biden’s odds of losing to Donald Trump is too ironic and hilarious. They are losing their minds left and right and trying desperately to sound the alarm about Joe Biden’s now bleak odds of winning this November.
Recently, MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough sounded like a mad-man who had lost any last sane brain cell he had left when a New York Times survey was released showing that Joe Biden was well behind Donald Trump in states like Michigan.
CNN data analysts saying “my goodness, my god” is all the evidence you need that everyone knows if the election were held today, Joe Biden would lose worse than the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl against the Seahawks in 2014.
Joe Biden isn’t trying to debate Trump to make himself look superior. He’s debating him because he has to. He has to try and turn things around, otherwise they simply won’t.
Should Donald Trump win this November, it would be the best political karma to ever go down in the history books, that’s for sure.
