Former secretary of state who served on Barack Obama’s staff, Hillary Clinton, claims that she knows what to expect from the upcoming Donald Trump – Joe Biden debate.
Knewz.com has learned that she made these assertions in a guest essay where she supported her claims with her experience facing off against both candidates.
“I am the only person to have debated both men (Mr. Trump in 2016 and, in the 2008 Democratic presidential primary race, Senator Biden),” she wrote in a New York Times opinion piece.
“I know the excruciating pressure of walking onto that stage and that it is nearly impossible to focus on substance when Mr. Trump is involved,” she said mirroring sentiments by biographer Ramin Setoodeh during an interview with CNN’s Kaitlynn Collins.
“In our three debates in 2016, he unleashed a blizzard of interruptions, insults and lies that overwhelmed the moderators and did a disservice to the voters who tuned in to learn about our visions for the country — including a record 84 million viewers for our first debate,” Clinton recalled.
CNN, who will be hosting the debate remembers this too and has put in place a fixture that will automatically turn off the contenders' microphones when their time runs out.
“It is a waste of time to try to refute Mr. Trump’s arguments like in a normal debate. It’s nearly impossible to identify what his arguments even are. He starts with nonsense and then digresses into blather. This has gotten only worse in the years since we debated,” Clinton said.
Doctors and geriatricians have also noticed this aspect of Trump’s public speeches. In a Daily Mail exclusive, Dr. Elizabeth Landsverk noted: “Trump's mistakes usually see him ramble on for an extended period of time and fail to correct himself, which could be the sign of underlying brain problems.”
Clinton went on to cite a CNBC article where the journalists quoted the attending CEOs at a Business Roundtable meeting saying that “Trump doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”
The article further stated that "[Trump] was remarkably meandering, could not keep a straight thought [and] was all over the map."
According to Clinton, if Trump were to conduct himself similarly on June 27, he may not even disappoint.
“Expectations for him are so low that if he doesn’t literally light himself on fire on Thursday evening, some will say he was downright presidential,” the former first lady elaborated.
According to Clinton, even if Trump were to bully his way through the debate and conduct himself in the same manner he did in the 2016 and 2020 meetings, and if he resorted to the abortion rhetoric and spoke to the financial interests of the big oil corporations—he could still lose.
All Joe Biden has to do is deliver coherent to-the-point explanations. So confident is Clinton in Biden’s victory that she telegraphs her beliefs of him being the president giving the State of the Union address in March 2025.
