Chris Wallace is saying on Fox 'News' ...

[left-of-center2012]

A major reason the commission on debates changed the next presidential debate to a virtual one is because no one wanted to be in the same room with Donald Trump.

The sound and camera crew were refusing
plus the commission was having trouble finding noncommitted voters willing to be in the audience of the townhall to ask the questions.

Even though Trump had to test negative to appear,
no one wanted to be in the room with Trump,
so says Chris Wallace ... Fox News.

1. I understand!

I don't want to be in the same country as Trump.

[riversedge]

[plimsoll]

26. That was my first thought as well.

But you can expand that exclusion zone almost infinitely.

31. Good point!

Planet and Universe as well.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

60. Lolol!! Yes!!

[CottonBear]

38. I don't want to be on the same planet with MF 45. N/T

[TheRealNorth]

43. if there is a Kickstarter to raise money

to buy a Soyuz rocket and send Trump to the moon, I'm in.

[Dem2theMax]

62. Mars. Guaranteed to be a one-way trip.

And I'm in as well! 💰

[Grokenstein]

67. Aw, we shouldn't dump our trash in other communities.

How about the Sun instead?

[Dem2theMax]

73. The sun is an even better idea.

It's awfully hot up there. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.

[COL Mustard]

84. He Could Always Go At Night

[Dem2theMax]

86. You made me laugh.

It's been a very long time since I've heard that one!

[COL Mustard]

89. Thank You!! I Try!!!

[Squidly]

70. we dont want to pollute our solar system

just aim him out into the vastness of space...

wait....

We dont want a Star Trek scenario like V-ger and have some alien civilization stumble upon him...

actions have consequences

[calimary]

87. Why stop there? I vote for one of the outer planets.

The gas giants.

[smirkymonkey]

74. +1000

[Escurumbele]

49. LOL - Great answer

And many of us feel the same...but I guess he has to stay here, in jail.

Actually, it would be poetic justice, not for him but for the MAGAs, if trump flew to Moscow and stayed there to avoid jail time here, can you imagine?

[cstanleytech]

80. I don't want to be in the same universe with him.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

2. Who can argue with that?

If I know someone who has this, I would not want to be in the same room with them either. No matter how far apart we were.

[oldsoftie]

32. Understandable, But for how long?

I mean, if he tests negative a couple times & a "certain" number of days has gone by, just keep him 30 ft from anyone not part of his staff.

[keopeli]

52. Who will do the test? I think Trump will just say he's neg. Who would believe him?

[LuvNewcastle]

55. I wouldn't.

The only time Trump tells the truth is when it happens to be in his best interest to do so. It's never because he gives a shit about being accurate. Most of the time he's lying.

[oldsoftie]

72. The Commission could test both candidates. And if he refused, then everyone assumes he's got it

And he looks like an even bigger liar

[smb]

64. Three And A Half Weeks Should Be Long Enough nt

[oldsoftie]

71. HA!

[Arazi]

66. Will you believe he has negative test results? Hell no

[unblock]

3. People are finally realizing he's toxic. Of course, we knew this years ago....

[Dream Girl]

4. That makes me smile!

[riversedge]

5. wise people. Recall that the Trump family -including Donny arrived too late to be be tested last

time.

[lagomorph777]

23. And Pence had Redfield fake his COVID clearance for the VP debate.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/10/07/cdc-redfield-pence-letter/

This, despite having very obvious COVID pinkeye.

[colorado_ufo]

33. Plexiglass good call.

[lagomorph777]

34. Those tiny urinal divider stage decorations?

Not the least bit useful.

[colorado_ufo]

36. Well, they would protect against direct spew

if not aerosol spread. Or maybe fly spread.

[Grammy23]

35. Has Pence bought a case of Visine to use before any public appearances?

Just sayin’......

[lagomorph777]

37. Visine is not intended to treat COVID pinkeye.

I don't think it'll help.

Also, it's useless for zombie-flesh face color, and it doesn't repel flies.

[Grammy23]

39. Maybe I should have used the sarcasm thingy..

[lagomorph777]

40. No I got it - just playing along!

[Grammy23]

42. Honestly, if we can't jab these

Idiots, what’s the point, right?

The fly jokes have written themselves. LOL 😂 😂 😂

[magicarpet]

59. It is better to laugh in the face of trDump adversity,..

,... than the alternative,.... going home and beating the dog,... or worse....

Laugh at these ass wipes until it hurts.

[luvtheGWN]

27. On purpose, I think.

[AdamGG]

81. and then once they were seated, they took off their masks for the rest of the night

[dawg day]

6. Would anyone even trust a "negative" test from Trump?

After all, he said he'd had a negative test before the first debate. And that was a lie.

[KS Toronado]

30. In his mind he didn't lie, he had a negative test 2/3 months ago. W.H. still won't say

when his last negative test was, I believe he had it at the 1st debate.

[brewens]

7. Joe should just say no way. Just say Trump and his people can't be trusted to honor any agreement.

Either debate or testing rules.

[MontanaMama]

8. Interesting.

And seems true. Who in the world would want to risk their life to be in the same room with that orange pus bag of infection? I am surprised to hear a Faux employee say it.

[progressoid]

10. I'm surprised he still has a job there.

[cwydro]

11. Love it!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. I wouldn't want to be in the same room with him under any circumstances,

virus or no virus. He probably smells like cheap cologne, hairspray, sweat, and farts.

[flibbitygiblets]

47. Hamberder farts, the worst kind! Why do you think Dr. Birx always kept those scarves handy?

[Gothmog]

13. trump is a super spreader

It is dangerous being in the same room as trump

[Wounded Bear]

14. Who could blame them? nt

[ResistantAmerican17]

15. And what's to keep all the Clampettes from taking their masks off again?

Break the rules, pay the price—-assholes.

[beachbumbob]

16. zero vearicity in wht trump or his people say as they lie about everything

[gratuitous]

17. "The sound and camera crew were refusing"

That's what having a union does for you. Someone's looking out for your welfare on the job other than the boss who gets a bigger paycheck or bonus if he can work you to the very limit of safety (or maybe a little beyond, which is unfortunate, and we'll all miss the guy who sadly got killed this week; now back to work).

[malaise]

18. Pariah

a fucking pariah!

[JohnnyRingo]

19. Makeup, the person who pins the mic to his lapel...

... and the woman who has to change his diaper. There are a lot of people who have to come into close contact with him.

[Sneederbunk]

20. Regardless of Covid, always a good idea.

[themaguffin]

21. Understandable, but they reason it would be virtual is because he is fucking infected. Period.

[Roc2020]

22. already too many people have

allowed themselves to be destroyed because of loyalty to Trump. The election can't come fast enough.

[NoMoreRepugs]

24. Hopefully enough voters will vote Democratic so we don't have to be in the same country as RUMP.

[fleur-de-lisa]

25. Ha ha! That's hilarious.

Thanks for 'taking one for the team' . . . I don't think I would watch Fox.

[left-of-center2012]

28. I tune in to see their view

I rarely see anything I like

[Traildogbob]

29. Which one

A rabid crowd of maskless maggots were packed in a room screaming for Jr in Florida yesterday. The Commission could easily pack a town hall with those spewing disease riddled shit for brains. But, the production staff want no part of sharing a room with anything trump.

[Lucinda]

41. ❤️ ✿❧🌿❧✿ ❤️

[ToxMarz]

44. I'm sure not just the sound and camera crew were refusing

imagine hair and makeup (though I wouldn't think anyone would want that job under "normal" circumstance).

[Jirel]

45. Good.

It doesn't matter if he tests negative. Tests aren't perfect, and he's a walking time bomb.

Regardless, nobody rational wants to be in the same room with him for a hundred other reasons.

[Upthevibe]

46. left-of-center2012....

Well, that's actually comforting that "noncommitted" voters don't want to be in an enclosed area. I'm hoping that the "it's a hoax"/anti-masker crowd is shrinking....

[barbtries]

48. would you?

the only circumstance in which i would be willing to be would be if it was me or Joe Biden.

[Happyhippychick]

50. Typhoid Donny

[mwb970]

51. Same room?

I don't like it when he comes to my STATE.

[wnylib]

63. I feel blessed. He doesn't come to my state

since he moved out of it.

[PatrickforO]

53. I wouldn't want to be in the same room with him.

He's become a hyper-contagious super spreader.

[onetexan]

54. Put him in a plastic bubble

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

56. Poor persecuted Hissolini.

Only his million person death cult wants to be in the same room with him.

[kairos12]

57. We don't even

want to be in same country as him.

[Blue Owl]

82. +1

Send him to his beloved Russia

[calimary]

58. Hey, I don't need a COVID diagnosis to feel like I don't want to be anywhere near that SOB.

It makes me think back to something Jacqueline Susann (who wrote "Valley of the Dolls" - a lurid best-selling novel of sex, drugs, and Hollywood) said about Philip Roth (who wrote "Portnoy's Complaint" a lurid best-selling novel about a guy who can't stop masturbating): she thought he was certainly a fine fellow author but "... I just wouldn't want to shake hands with him."

Fun illicit teenage reading back in the late 60s. We'd sometimes bring our "outside reading" to class, prop up some textbook on the desk, and sneak OUR paperback novel onto the desk in front of it so the nun teaching up front by the blackboard wouldn't see.

[elias7]

61. No one should be in the same room. That's a medical fact.

If he has an active infection, he should either be quarantined and/or in a negative pressure room and caretakers should be in full protective gear. Why does he think people are dying alone? He has no fucking clue. And, he only cares about himself. How many ways does he have to show it to "undecided" folks?

[smb]

65. Good

The best part is that if the commission's hands were forced by their tech crews, it's very unlikely that they'll be able to return to an in-person format for the final debate). Cheato will huff and puff (and wheeze and cough and gasp and choke) at the commission, but he's in absolutely no position to bargain, given that he's the one who desperately needs an opportunity to change the dynamics of the race.

[Rice4VP]

68. That is hilarious

Everyone probably imagined him walking up to audience members and coughing on them and trying to infect Biden

[SergeStorms]

69. I have a difficult time sharing the planet with him.

Sit in a debate hall with him? No way in hell.

[Cha]

75. Good to know. TY! Revenge of those who

had to endure trump at the first "debate".

[packman]

76. And, the hell of it is, Covid had nothing to do with --

not wanting to be in the same room with him. I think that was just part of the weak excuse not to be near him.

[drray23]

77. You know, that may also be why he canceled this weekend his rally

and is relegated to balcony appearances at the white house. I bet nobody wants to fly the plane, helicopter and drive the beast. Maybe there was severe pushback from the miltary (AF1) and the secret service telling him we are running out of trained personel, they are all quarantined or sick. There cant be that many crews qualified to fly AF1 or drive the beast.

[SheltieLover]

78. I sincerely hope chumputin knows about this

this will set his orange yak fuzz afire.

And he will sit back and wonder what's wrong with everyone else. (It's a narcisist thing.)

[warmfeet]

79. Most people want to continue living.

Simple as that.

[disalitervisum]

83. complete crap

today (October 9, 2020) is the 80th birthday of John Lennon. We were baking bread. On December 8th, I will make another post.

[steampunk]

85. Trump Virus should be the name going forward.

[Dorian Gray]

88. I didn't want to be in the room with Trump

before he was diagnosed with Covid,. so I feel them. Deeply.
