25. This is what I think too

He didn't do well last time. And this was against Hillary who lets face it is not the most comfortable on stage. I'm sure she wishes she could have a do over, and she'd be much harder on him I'm sure. She'd tell him to back off, like she wanted to when he was prowling behind her. She still made him look like an idiot.
Anyways, Trump does NOT want to go through that kind of bare exposure again, one on one with ANY of the top candidates. I think he'd fear Warren the most. His nightmare over again, another smart woman.

I think this will go down as the first Presidential elections since debates were begun, that have all been cancelled, because Trump will refuse to participate based on some whiny excuse about bias. Instead he'll just hold more rallies, all aired on Fox News with highlights on the rest of the MSM every night. Maybe set up a "debate" at Mar-a-Lago, and Fox News will host it. Between Republicans only. But they won't be debating each other so much as harping on Democrats and bragging about the Dear Leader, while Trump sits and smiles on some gold encrusted throne.
