The response they gave about him being to busy was horrible.
I thought it made him look weaker than he already did; which, admittedly, is rather impressive. He just ran away from a confrontation with the leader of a nation; with this, whatever face he may have had is non-existent at this point. He is a coward, and everyone knows it.
Problem is if he does that, Putin might actually bring something to the table to call Biden's bluff and then Biden will look even worse for backing down afterwards. After all he's sure to win if the debate actually happens, Biden is extremely weak on speaking. As is this response shut things down entirely and lets him save face by claiming Putin's not worth his time, which is the only, well not exactly winning move but less losing move.
Oh I'm not saying it's a good thing to be sure, it did make the US look weaker. Biden is between a rock and a hard place there. My point is more that between running away, and having Biden try to debate Putin in front of the whole world, running away is the better option.
No.
Back away from a fight or get mocked and humiliated publicly in front of the whole world. If your leader can't win a debate for love or money you have to learn to live with not being able to compete in debates.
And how far do you think it would go? You mentioned the Senate earlier. [edit: lol wtf that was Jormungandr]
Biden just showed we are willing to run away over stand and fight.
So? Would getting walked over in a debate have been better? Of course not. Fact is if the only outcome of the game is a certain, humiliating loss, not playing is the better option.
...I'm Terthna; you're thinking of Jormungandr.
If they pull this off, I expect MTG and Boebert to be their next targets.

I have no explanation for how that happened; I apologize. Thanks for answering, but there's no way this would have the votes in the Senate even if the House went completely bonkers.
From what I understand, the justification would be the insanely close vote and some questionable ballots that are enough to flip the SIX necessary votes. That wouldn't be the case for Boebert, and Greene obliterated her opponent (I recall reading that his morale broke from threats/harassment and he literally fled the state).
It might, if enough RINOs back it. It would be an easy way to purge the Republican party of people who aren't controlled opposition.
The last time the establishment thought they had enough power, Trump won the 2016 election. I suspect after that debacle, they've decided there's no such thing; they want all of the power now.
It sets yet another precedent against republicans.
They believe they are immune to consequences, and with the way the cuckservatives act, I think they have pretty good odds. If we want to hurt the Left, we need to throw out the RINOs and Spineless out of the GOP, we need to install our own activist-judges, we need to recruit politicans that hate the Left and are not afraid of showing so, we need to run our own long marsh through the institutions, we need to cast aside the ideas that the MSM is neutral and that we are supposed to act civil to everyone, we need our own troops of antifa-type mob to aim at demonstrations of our enemy. Cast not pearls before swines.
I'm sure they'll do their very best to make sure a double standard is in place. Otherwise, we might just have to use the same tactic to unseat Biden.
