32. The only reason Trump wants to talk with Biden

Is so that he can then say, Biden and I are in agreement that this is what we must do.

Then when ship hits the fan, he can then say - he was following the advice that Biden gave him.

Talking to Trump is a waste of time and Biden should not initiate a call to Trump. Make Trump call him and at the same time, ensure that Nancy (and a few other leaders) are part of the conference call. But ultimately, sad to say this - Biden would and should say “Trump, you are the president, now why not share your plans with us”. Sorry, I wouldn’t give Trump a lifeline. Lives by the sword and die by the sword (of hate, distrust, lying, blaming others).

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
