TONIGHT’S DEBATE: Trump campaign pushing for both candidates to be inspected for electronic devices [UPDATE: TEAM BIDEN DENIES]

Team Trump is smartly pushing for both candidates to have their ears inspected for electronic devices ahead of tonight’s debate:

Fox News has learned that the president’s re-election campaign wants the Biden campaign to allow a third party to inspect the ears of each debater for electronic devices or transmitters. The president has consented to this kind of inspection, but Biden has not, so far, sources said.

Biden has exhibited very suspicious behavior recently, enough to warrant this kind of check before the debate tonight. I’m glad Trump is pushing for it and they better make a big scene out of this if Biden refuses.

UPDATE: Apparently Biden agreed to this but has now changed his mind and refuses to have his ears checked:

If this is true Trump better make a huge stink out of this. They cannot allow cheating at tonight’s debate!

 
UPDATE II: Trump’s campaign just put out this statement:

 
UPDATE III: Team Biden says all of this is lies:

Biden’s campaign has also been pushing for at least two 30 minute breaks during the 90 minute debate:

Over the last several weeks, the former vice president’s campaign has also requested two breaks — one every 30 minutes — to break up the 90-minute commercial-free program. But that request has been denied by their Trump counterparts, Fox News is told.

A Trump campaign source told Fox News that “our guy doesn’t need breaks. He gives 90-minute speeches all the time.”

While these breaks may have to do with Biden’s fatigue, I think they have more to do with Team Biden trying to help Biden cheat than anything else. Team Trump did the right thing in rejecting them. After all, if Biden can’t go for 90 minutes without cheater breaks, he doesn’t deserve to be president.

Since my original theory didn’t pan out of Biden coming down with a fake case of COVID to get out of debating Trump, I’m starting to think now that he might fake a heart attack during tonight’s debate when the questions get tough or he starts to forget stuff. Afterward they’ll say it was just a case of angina and that he’ll be fine. I know, it’s pretty far fetched. But given Biden’s obvious mental struggles (and that’s putting it nicely) and the fact that his campaign feels the need to request two 30 minute breaks, I don’t think it’s outside of the realm of possibility. What do you think?
