This is a clear difference between Trump and say Palin. Mccains campaign was run by a wall street friend with no political background. Palin, unlike normal practice, did not have the questions in advance. Yet, her managers allowed her to walk into Katty Coricks AMBUSH. Yes, it is normal practice for the reporter to give the candidate the questions in advance.
There are no do overs. But, with a proper manager, Palin would not have shown up without advanced questions.
It might have been president McCain rather than Obama an unknown, who anyone who did not vote for him was labeled racist.
TRUMP simply refused to be trapped. Ali-CALLED IT THE ROPE A DOPE.

Well, you are wrong on a few counts. A reporter should not give questions in advance of an interview. The public has the right to see the candidate think for themselves on the spot and not prepared answers by a staff of researchers.
Trump decided not to be present. No problem. He as not going to win friends or enemies either way.
If McCain had picked a reasonable VP candidate, he would have won. Palin was a train wreck and just too stupid and uninformed to be VP. Her family has shown that they are not up to the standards of being representatives of the USA. A daughter with two kids out of wedlock, a brawling son and husband, and the daughter on reality television preaching teen abstinence but getting pregnant.
