That's possible. He is telling everyone that the election is rigged. In a debate he will need to think on his feet without the name calling. And what if he doesn't know a fact like yesterday?

"in an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, Trump said Russian President Vladimir Putin wouldn't make a military move into Ukraine -- even though Putin has already done that by seizing the Crimean Peninsula in 2014."

I think this week will be interesting.

He was talking about the Ukraine, NOT the Crimea. Many consider the Crimea as separate from the Ukraine.
What did you expect from George, former gopher for the Clinton administration?

Interesting how the media has all three of the debates competing with the Football games. Hillary is good at getting her debates hidden from public view.

Maybe you should get your facts straight. The debate schedule was set long before the NFL schedule. Hillary had nothing to do with the dates. MORE PROPAGANDA

I can hardly wait until Sept to see Trump make a fool of himself AGAIN. I see he is trying to get rid of the Orange hair and face. The fake tan with white circles is hilarious.

[Guest]

The surprise will be when Trump removes Clinton's tonsils through her a$$!!

In other words she does not stand a chance.
Pulling the string in the neck responses with shrieking won't get it.

He must be a smart fool then. Because he beat out 16 other experienced candidates. Hillary could do with a bit of Donald's color. She is looking a bit like extras from The Walking Dead.

I have a lot of respect for Donald's tenacity in this election process. With hardly any backing from the right and dirty attacks from the left, he has still prevailed and won every battle. Personally, this is the perfect point where I would tell the GOP to either get on board, or I'd take my billions and move to a private island and not pay a single penny in American taxes. Kind of hard for them to find a substitute to put on the ballot when the registration process is now closed. I'd tell the GOP that if they want Hillary then they can have her and I would flip them the bird and walk. But, Trump is not a quitter and will fight all the way to the end, no matter what the fix. He has beat the odds so far, but I honestly do not believe he can beat the extent of how deep this corruption is.

Your right about trump, he is a smart fool. And so are the people who back him, fools not smart. Get in line trump backers as he leads you to the cliff.

I have news for you, the GOP would love for him to take a hike, or haven't you noticed.

Do you really think they would want to lose to Hillary?

[Guest]

If you miss a debate you can watch the entire debate the next day on YouTube. It is the same for the convention speeches.

A debate is not like the Super Bowl or World Series. It's more like a movie or a play. There's no score. What they say and how they react is recorded. This makes some people shine and makes fools out of others.

In the Nixon/Kennedy debates they said if you heard them on the radio, Nixon won. When you watched it on tv, no recorders back then to speak of, Kennedy looked presidential and not shifty.

[Guest]

Yes.

[Guest]

I am so hoping he doesn't chicken out, for at least on the first one.

My guess is though, he will do so poorly in the first one that he will make a lame excuse and go on his typical tirade...to avoid the rest.

If he does have the guts (and lack of brains) to show at even one of the debates....his evisceration by Hillary will be epic! :thumbup:

I think he'll push dropping out until the last minute to make his point.

In so doing he will get millions of dollars of free advertising.

it will be on all networks.

[Guest]

Perhaps a Twitter debate is all we'll get. He can bluster and name call tweet after tweet. The Trump supporters here willl be left out.

Do people who twitter have 140 character or less thoughts?

We have all heard responses that change direction every 8 seconds.

I think he is taking a crash course in politics 101 at Trump University.

He's definitely going to try to weasel out of the debates, because he knows he can't debate and beat Hillary. He just doesn't have the background or information necessary or experience in debating that she has. He's all about blustering and calling names. He clearly has no grasp of the issues that a president would face.

[Guest]

Trump is going access, if he will lose more votes by showing up or not showing up. If he goes to the debate, he will get his butt kicked by Hillary. Then, he will state that the moderators weren't fair. The debates were rigged. Everything is rigged against me. Boo! who! poor baby!

There has been plenty of talk about Trump liking the idea of being president, and not wanting to do the work of being president. Given his attitude on the campaign, he is doing everything possible to make sure that he loses. He is getting himself a national audience, and then he will start his own TV network. It is all about the money with him.

In the pro's, there is Thursday night football, Sunday, and Monday. On Friday, and Saturday, there are college football games. That leaves Tuesday, and Wednesday. Baseball will take over then. Pennant races, playoffs, and the world series, can't have debates during those nights. Not having debates against sporting events is about a lame excuse as you can get. He hasn't mentioned college football, or baseball. Trump will have his" I've been told" moment, if the debates are moved for the original schedule at his request.

Trump is a con man plain and simple. When he loses the election, he will say that it was rigged. He has already floated that trial balloon out there.

[Guest]

First of all he beat 16 in the primaries, so he knows how to debate.

As far as background he's being briefed now every day.

He'll be up too speed by the first debate.

She sucked at debating against Bernie.

even worse against Obama.

It is her weak point, further, no press conference in since Dec, why.

She knows the questions and don't want to face them.

It's not a ratings contest. They could hold the debates tomorrow without an audience and run it whenever they want. What difference would it make?

That's actually what I want. Instead of a pop quiz let's have a pop debate where no one has time to prepare.

Let's see who does better.

Election Betting Odds has HILLARY with a 72.4 percent chance of being the next President. Trump is coming in at 27 percent.

Yep, you've nailed it. :thumbup:

Seriously though, does anyone really wonder why 'rigged' is Chumps favorite word in his "very, very, very I tell you and you can trust me on this"....... limited vocabulary? :D

Having been the one that has most likely done the 'rigging' in a lot of business deals...I'm sure he's petrified of being on the other end for once.

Even though that is impossible to do, on a national level election.

Unless your name is Bush and you have the SCOTUS in your pocket. :icon_twisted:

Obama drove us off the cliff a long time ago and the country is still in dire trouble. Hillary said she is more of the same. She is pretty lazy so it's much easier to let Obie's policies run their course so she has someone else to blame for her failures. I fully expect that those that were stupid enough to vote for Obie twice, are stupid enough to vote for the criminal too. She will be the first almost woman elected and then the first woman almost president indicted for multiple felonies. And the stupid ones that voted for her will be able to say that they almost elected the first female president.

the new Wikileaks emails are coming soon, Hellery will love them.

if she gets the nod, their tax return in 4 years with be how many more millions....oh wait you have to look at the Clinton Foundation to to find the $$$$

[Guest]

Of course Trump will try to get out of debating. He's in way over his head, doesn't have a clue about the issues and knows Hillary will SLAY him.

[Guest]

he slayed 16 opponents, Obama slayed her in fact Bernie held her off too.

She is not comfortable in debates, she even said that.

She can only lie and collect money for speeches from wall street and the scam foundation.
