This is Joe Biden’s last chance. If he bombs during next week’s presidential debate, which many believe will happen, then we’ll see how valid the rumors are that he will be replaced.
There are three things President Donald Trump should strive to accomplish during the debate and one piece of advice he should definitely ignore. I’ve listed those below, but first, here are the top stories for today’s Discern Report Newsletter:

Three Things Donald Trump Must Do During the Debate, and One Thing He Shouldn’t
If rumors are true, Joe Biden will be scrutinized thoroughly during the first presidential debate he has with Donald Trump next week. If he doesn’t seem up to par, which he probably won’t, then the powers-that-be in the UniParty Swamp could replace him with someone else.
President Trump has a unique opportunity. In contrast to previous debates when he was labeled by corporate media as being “behind” in the polls, he enters this one with a full head of steam and a positive trend in polling, particularly in battleground states.
He’s getting a lot of advice from a lot of overpaid advisors and unpaid conservative journalists. Some of it has been good, but there is one notable bad piece of advice that he’s probably hearing from far too many people. Let’s look at the three things he needs to do during this debate, then we’ll examine the one piece of advice he definitely shouldn’t take.
- Hit Democrats and Their Policies, Not Just Biden: “Dementia Joe” is such an easy target that a middle schooler passing social studies could intellectually dismantle him. But considering the possibility that Biden could be replaced, it behooves President Trump to focus his attacks on Democrat policies, not just Sleepy Joe’s. If he isolates Biden as the cause of all the nation’s problems, then Biden’s replacement will enter the fray unscathed. But if Trump can hit the Democrats as unified in their failures, highlighting that any Democrat would be failing just as hard as Old Joe, then the message can carry over to hit the next candidate. I would even go so far as to tell President Trump to use this line, “I doubt Joe will even be the candidate so I’m really addressing whoever they plan on replacing him with.”
- Remind People About the Way Things Were: Ronald Reagan won the 1980 election in part due to asking a simple question, “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” Trump has an even bigger opportunity to invoke recent history because he has the track record from his first term. He should come armed with specific facts such as costs of common merchandise, illegal alien statistics, and the lack of conflicts across the globe when he was Commander-in-Chief.
- Border-Economy Economy-Border: The border invasion is on most voters’ minds. Disregard any poll that shows the border crisis and the economy as anything other than #1 and #2. Depending on who gets polled the two may flip-flop but they are definitely the two top concerns. On one hand he needs to remind people how good things were when he was president. But he must also look to the future and describe how bad the border crisis and the economy can get if we get another four years of Democrat rule.
If he does those things, he’ll win easily. But let’s face it, he could probably win the debate if he got up on stage and just cracked jokes. Even a well prepared and properly drugged up Joe Biden is likely going to be a debacle.
There’s one piece of advice conservative journalists and Trump’s consultants are telling him. He should disregard the notion altogether.
They’re telling him he needs to act more “presidential.” On the surface this may seem like sound advice because in a battle against a weaker opponent it makes sense to try to take the high road. Moreover, there are those who may like Trump’s policies but that do not like his volatile nature.
Dig just below the surface of this “sound” advice and we’ll see that it would be a disaster. First and foremost, Trump is a fighter. Asking him to be more “presidential” is asking him not to punch. It would be like telling Stephen Curry to pass first even if he has an open shot because that’s what point guards are supposed to do.
Second, it’s a false assumption that he could gain more Independent voters who are on the fence by being something other than what he is. If they’re going to vote for him, it’s because they learn to accept who he is in order to gain what he can achieve. Very few will say, “Hey, he used to be mean but now he’s nice so I’ll vote for him.”
If anything, voters on the fence who don’t like his abrasive style might think he’s trying to con them by pretending to be nice all of a sudden.
Last and certainly not least, he ALREADY IS presidential. It’s not the type of “presidential” that consultants are trained to create but it generates the respect that both world leaders and domestic allies have grown to appreciate. They don’t have to like him. They just have to respect him, and what they can respect most about him is that he’s not traditionally presidential. He’s different, and I would argue much better, by being who he is.
We’ll see how it all pans out during and after the debate. Be sure to subscribe to the Discern Report Newsletter if you haven’t already.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
