There are three: 9/29, 10/15, and 10/22.
The VP debate is scheduled for 10/7.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/election ... te:sept.29
First presidential debate: Sept. 29
Location: Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. (This was originally scheduled to be held at the University of Notre Dame. Notre Dame withdrew, saying the fact they’d have to limit student attendance and volunteer opportunities because of the pandemic erases the reason to host a debate at their university.)
Time: 9-10:30 p.m. Eastern time
Where to watch: The Washington Post will have an uninterrupted live stream of the debate. It will also be carried on most major news stations.
Moderator: To be announced
Details: The debate will be 90 minutes long and have no commercial breaks. It will be divided into six, 15-minute segments that the moderator gets to choose and is expected to announce at least a week before the debate.

If Biden comes across as steady and competent and doesnt get flustered, I think this will be the only debate.
60% chance of Biden being generally
normal ...?
Guarantee Trump will be Trump. Not normal.....or, rather, normal....

Unfortunately I don't think there's a chance

LOL, Clinton reduced to being the solitary sad clown warming up the crowd at the county fair circus.
Keith Richards wouldn't survive this drinking game.

Well, that
appeared to be a disaster.
As expected....?
Here is the result if an unofficial poll put out by the center-left paper of record in Oregon.

That poll doesn't surprise me. I got a sick feeling that Biden was done within the first 15 minutes or so. When his smooth jazz radio host voice started to stumble on words, I thought that would be perceived as weak and Trump would pounce on that.

Trump not denouncing white supremacists and his call out to the Proud Boys was shocking.
