not the same.

We can also assume the Democrat operatives rigged
one of the 2012s to be on the Monday.

Now they are attempting to fix 2.

Sorry, homey don't play that game.

If you have to ask, I can see you haven't spent much time in the Trump universe.

And apparently they think that those who watch football can just Tivo it. Personal responsibility, and all that.

There will be something that conflicts every night. It can't be Wednesday nights - many people have Kiwanis! It can't be Thursday night - that's when Scandal is on!
no no no...NFL games get far more ratings than those shows. Look, if Trump was trying to move it up by weeks, you'd have a point about "quaking in boots" however, if they're just looking to move it to a Tuesday, you have no proof. Also, aren't you nervous about Hillary potentially passing out or seizing on stage?

And the Donald Trump (lying) conspiracy train keeps rolling along....

Trump says NFL complained to him about debate schedule; NFL says it didn't - Chicago Tribune

It's not like 80 million people are watching these games. It's more like 15 million, or just 5% of the population.

Trump knows this.

Jeez, you'd think we are living back in the days of black and white TV and before recording devices were invented. So what if a football game is playing at the same time as a debate. Record one or the other to watch later. If Trump is bemoaning that face he himself can't give up watching a football game in real time then he should drop out of the presidential race. The presidency requires many sacrifices of private time.

And it may come as a surprise to some but not everyone cares a flying fig for football.

Do you honestly believe that disgraced Debbie Wasserman-Schultz put on a halo just for this?

Come-on.......


Hacked emails have already proven the DNC did nothing but rig things. They are cheaters.

Any thinking adult knows this.

I think you have that backwards, it's crooked hillary who is hiding. Schedule the debates when no one will be watching, just like she did to Bernie..
She is a corrupt old slug..

I'm so sorry that so many people in your world don't have the ability to record the debate (or the game) to watch later.

Who didn't expect Trump to try and back out of the debates? You could see this coming. He doesn't know what a nuclear triad means. He most certainly doesn't want to be on-stage with Hillary. She would destroy him.
