Steve Doocy, the host of Fox & Friends, said on Monday that former President Trump’s decision to skip the first GOP primary debate this week could benefit President Biden.
Doocy argued that by skipping the debate, Trump is giving Biden an excuse to also skip any future debates between the two candidates. This could be a major advantage for Biden, as he has been criticized for his performance in debates in the past.
Doocy also noted that Trump’s decision to skip the debate could also hurt the other Republican candidates who are hoping to challenge him for the nomination. By not participating in the debate, Trump will be able to avoid scrutiny from his rivals and maintain his image as the frontrunner.
It is still too early to say how Trump’s decision to skip the debate will ultimately affect the 2024 presidential election. However, Doocy’s comments suggest that it could be a major boost for Biden.
