Dear Mr Pakman, You have been covering the news for the whole of President Trump's time in office and I think everyone would agree that in spite of Trump being all of the things people say he is, he has made you a world-class television journalist, videocast star reporter---I don't have the label, but congratulations on bring social commentary up a notch or two. I believe that Trump made a mockery of debating, but I firmly believe that Joe Biden must go through the debates and not take the bait of letting Trump get under his skin. He must not use street language to talk about Trump, but--and this is only my advice--he must pretend he's debating Elizabeth Warren and not let his emotions get the better of him. This way, the debate goes out across the world to where I'm sitting for example, as simply a heated-exchange between rival politicians. For Biden to cop out and stop debating would send the wrong signal. Frankly, so what if Trump can't debate. You let him ramble on. You let him interrupt. You go through the motions and refer to him by saying things like: "Well, I think President Trump has made a good point there, at least in his opinion, but I see things this way... It's too easy to give advice, but I think you can't put rules up there as to what a debate has to be: let everyone speak their mind.
