    It’s not pointless. One thing narcissists and wannabe strongmen do is act like they are above the rules that the rest of us have to abide by. Norms and conventions are for the little people. A good way to push back is to hold them to the same standards as anybody else. It sends the message that they aren’t special, and if Trump doesn’t like that, well tough shit. Let Biden have the allotted time all to himself in that case.

      The only way to get through to Trump is to imprison him (actually, I doubt he could own up to his actions, even then). I’d be fine with Biden listing out policy positions and answering questions for an hour.

        That’s one way, not the only way. One thing narcissists cannot abide is ridicule but I don’t know if Biden is the guy to do that. If he could provoke Trump into a meltdown on live TV that could be enough to seal a second term. It’s a shame it’s not Newsom though, I’m not a huge fan of his but he would straight up roast Trump for 90 minutes.
