If I were Trump, I guess I would do the same. I appear to already be the winner, so why give my opponents the publicity that being in a debate with me would bring? Seems like there's not much to gain from joining the debates.

It should be illegal for presidential candidates to not attend debates.

It shows him to be a coward that's afraid of having his actions challenged, including his policies (or lack thereof) and his criminal acts. Not that I'd expect many republicans to have the balls to challenge him hard on these things.

He's also not going to pull this just for the republicans. He's whined every time there's a debate and threatened not to participate. It's his entitlement showing through... he thinks people should vote for him just because he wants it.

And that would stop the most indicted former president in history how?

In terms of political strategy there's no upside to Trump attending the debates. He's under indictment for like 90 felonies and instead of using that against him his primary opponents are going out of their way to defend him.

The only reason he has to attend is tradition but he has contempt for the democratic process itself so it's no surprise he doesn't care about upholding the traditions associated with it.
