Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsShould Biden bring up Trump's strange sniffling during the debate?
Maybe throw Trump off? Ask why he normally doesn't do it other than big debates. Get the media talking about the moment?
Thoughts?

(24,471 posts)It's weird but it sounds sort of conspiracy-ish (not saying that I don't think that something's weird about it per se but not really befitting a Presidential debate topic).

(17,489 posts)But he might be able to work a reference in that won't be discovered until the tape is looked at afterwards, and even then, it would have to be a reference that left some wiggle room for doubt about the point he was making. It would depend on the context I think, but I would not mention it directly...it could backfire.
