liberal propaganda.......Trump is not afraid to do press conferences. Hillary is. Hillary only goes on tv on friendly networks or when its scripted for her.
It was the DNC who wanted to limited debates in the primaries so she wouldn't get exposed.
Trump debated many times 6 people during the primaries at the same time why would he be afraid of debating Hillary? she has a lousy record as secretary of the state and is more of the same....why would Trump be afraid of her.
Trump is afraid of the Press. That's why he tries to control their questions by banning reporters for his press conferences and threatening to skip debates.
Hillary may not arrange as many press conferences but when she does, she does not threaten them with withdrawing access if she doesn't like the questions.
which reporter has Trump ban? Jorge Ramos? he didn't ban him, he just not going to debate bias political activists disguising themselves as reporters with an agenda.....its a Q & A session, not a debate.
Clueless......Trump is willing to go to any network and answer questions....Hillary won't go to Fox, not even 1 time.

That has changed. Crooked Hillary is going to be interview on Fox by Chris Wallace ( no fan of Trump). It will air on Sunday and actual time for speaking is 25 minuets. She will word salad Wallace to death and deflect and avoid direct answers to get through the interview and answer very little. Expect the victim card and deflect to the danger card trying to make the interview about Trump and not her.
Oh the pain oh the pain... trump is already complaining about the debate schedule, next it will be the moderators - especially if any of them happen to be women. Then, he will say he's being treated unfairly, and refuse to be there. Sound familiar? Or, will he have completed his famous 'pivot' by then? Hardly.
Sure, hillary and the dems are sooooo totally in control of the scheduling. Maybe, instead of howling that it is all hillary's fault, he should look to his own party for possibly selling the debates down the river. After all, they have a good reason to make sure there won't be many people watching - anyone who is interested in comparing the behaviors and knowledge of the two candidates face to face might have a bit of difficulty in deciding to vote for trump.
"didn't the Republican Party, which Trump represents, have to agree to the debate schedule? "
When is Hillary's next press conference so she answer questions about her statements?
Lack of detail gives Trump an advantage in the debates and may even be planned. He'll be able to unload them on Hillary during the debate leaving her very unprepared. Didn't think of that did you?
That said I'm not sure how any politician can go into detail without boring everyone to death. They can give a PowerPoint presentation but that's not going to matter if 90% of the people turn the TV off.
Seems like perhaps a voter who wants those details wouldn't be bored to death. One who is seduced by all the reality show sparkle would be unconcerned for detail and bored to death, tho. I see your point.
It would be a blessing for the ailing Hillary if Trump doesn't debate her. I read that under stress, she could "bleed out" per the article. She has avoided the public as much as she can and I suspect she has been heavily medicated even though it looks like either the medications can't stop or are causing seizures, the head bobble and inappropriate laughter.
I think Trump not debating her is yet another fantasy, prayer, delusion, etc. of the Dems as they can see how weak their candidate is and hope to spare her from further humiliation.
No. We simply saw how he refused to debate Cruz one on one.
Trump did ok against 17 other people because all he had to do was create a quick sound-byte and move in.
He won't get by discussing the size of his hands in any real debate against Hillary.
Trump will refuse because he won't want to be bested by a woman.
hmmm given that football is America's favorite sport I can see why he is questioning the schedule. Why not have the debates on a Wednesday night or a Saturday night?
This is saying something about Americans who are more concerned about a game, than the future of their country. No wonder we're spiraling down.....we ONLY have our selves to blame!
Of course, the trump followers really don't care about policy, they love all the flash and nastiness. They are waiting for trump to give non-answers about his own policies, and say snide things to and about hillary instead. As cheap entertainment, trump can't be beat... as a possible president, he leaves a lot to be desired.
If it were possible to embarrass trump, she would do it in all 3 debates. But, it is impossible to embarrass trump. He just can't see when he is headed down the wrong road. I wouldn't be surprise dot hear more about his yuuuge hands and his ... no problem there... during the debates. After all, he got such great response to that. He might even throw in some comments about bernie, even though bernie isn't running any more. It is so much more substantive than actually coming up with an answer to a question.
If you think Trump will skip the debates you're delusional. He just beat 16 other people to win the nomination. Why would he be afraid of Hillary who has a long list of things she can be grilled on.
Trump's biggest problem might be how he approaches the debates. He'll want to make points of Hillary's questionable dealings and policies without appearing too aggressive, which could be a problem.
He needs to get voters to like the messenger as well as the message, something I think works against him sometimes.
There is a huge difference in debating 16 others in a constricted time limit and only one other in the same time period. With 17 contenders onstage, none got over 2-4 minutes total, to speak and respond. An impossibly short time to say anything much at all.
In a one to one 90 minute debate, Trump and Clinton will be speaking for at least 40 minutes each. That's more time than Trump had in 5 primary debates, and he's never done a one on one. Hillary has done many of one on one debates, beginning in her early 20s as a lawyer.
Trump worrying about being too aggressive? Please. That's what got him the nomination. That statement is laughable.
Both of them have very long lists of questionable dealings; that's all the public talks about, and has from the first. Don't expect to see either one go there for very long.
Clinton has the hide of a rhino. Trump won't be able to needle her off course. Hillary knows how to get under Trump's very thin and sensitive skin, however, and she won't hesitate.
Any Presidential debate is a display of a person's conduct and ability under pressure. Composure under pressure is an absolute necessity for any President, and entire world will be watching like hawks to see who shows the slightest sign of confusion, any loss of temper, and any hesitation of response.
Believe how you will, but if there are any debates at all, which is doubtful, I wouldn't take a bet on Trump winning. Any of them.
