One thing tonight proves to me....

[Adrahil]

Hillary is going to SHRED him in the debates.

[WiffenPoof]

1. Completely Agree!!!! NT

[Beartracks]

2. If Hillary shreds Trump in the debates, but...

... no journalist is there to report it accurately, does it make a dent?



And in any case, his supporters will only see what they want to see... or what they are told they saw.

====================

10. and all Donald has to do is not trip over his shoes then the press calls him Presidential. #lowbar

[Beartracks]

11. Did you say that very thing about Dubya?

That may be a verbatim statement I remember reading abuot Bush Jr. at DU 12 years ago.


=====================

12. One comment today was the bar would be six feet underground!

That's how low it would be. Not sure where I heard that - CNN or MSNBC in their discussions about what was coming tonight - or who said it. I was too to catch the commentator.

[SHRED]

3. SHRED agrees!

[KMOD]

4. Oh Hill Yes!

[uponit7771]

5. Rip him a couple of new ones, tRump is a freakin joke

[C_U_L8R]

6. I thought Trump's face was gonna explode tonight

I expect that it probably will once Hillary
thoroughly kicks his ass in the debates.

[Adrahil]

8. He looked terrible.

Very ill at ease, and nervous.

[hibbing]

16. Some people say...

[niyad]

9. maybe another portion of his anatomy??

[niyad]

7. assuming he actually shows up at the debates.

[pnwmom]

13. Yes!

[Stonepounder]

14. I couldn't stand to watch, but I just got done reading the transcript.

It is all going to come down to the moderators. Trump lies as easily as most people breathe. If he says A, then later says Z, and someone says 'but you just said A'. He will confidently say, 'No, it is Z'.

His 'secret plan' to defeat ISIS is to convene a meeting of generals and give them 30 days to come up with a plan. Like they haven't already done that? He says "we should have stayed and done a 'to the victor go to spoils' and taken the oil" when asked how he has no idea of how he would have secured the wells or transported the oil or how he would have handled world opinion or anything else. He was just going to 'take back America' because he has 'good judgement' And he got called on none of it'

He said that the reason there was so much of a problem with sexual assault in the military was because men and women were on the same base. (I guess the reason there is sexual assault in the world is because men and women coexist.) And he wasn't called on it.

He babbled about how he was 100% prepared to be President, but didn't have one single firm policy plan. And he wasn't called on it.

And Hillary had to spend 1/3 of her time talking about her emails.

[awoke_in_2003]

15. If...

1- He shows up
2- The moderators actually enforce the rules, and not let tRump do whatever the hell he wants.

[Blue Idaho]

17. Knowing the M$M

The moderators will probably force Sec. Clinton to deliver all her answers as a from of silent modern dance and all of Trumps answers will actually be delivered by a team of campaign workers on laptop computers.

They are so in the bag for Trump it is no longer funny.

[Liberal In Red State]

18. Except don't expect anything better by way of a moderator when Chris Wallace over . . .

He already has stated that it isn't his job to correct or fact check the debaters when false statements are made.
