It is the concern of the low information voter not worthy of the debate stage.
But do your best to add it as a question at the debate. Explain who thinks it is an issue that effects the lives of millions of voters.

The moderators will be instructed to interrupt Trump every time he challenges Hillary.
Except Trump is the one that always tries to control everything. When he doesn't get his way he says it was rigged and goes home. I do hope he shows up!!!

It's no concern that he lied about this while attempting to dictate under what conditions he would debate? Why lie? Your sure he will win. Why not just debate? It's like his missing tax returns; he knows it will be damning. Again, try not to deflect, why did he lie about the NFL letter?

A PROVEN (note the emphasis) liar as president to avoid hard questions isn't low information. The uneducated I'm sure don't care. We aren't all in that category.

There are still many many people out there who have yet to watch or hear anything other than a 'sound bite' out of Trump.

Most people have made an opinion of Trump based on what the mainstream media has been feeding them all this time. They have yet to actually hear his ideas on making America great again.

I say this because I was one of those people. I used to be a Bernie supporter while my parents were Trump supporters - we'd argue over how he was a jerk and my parents argued he was best for the country. I never actually listened to him talk. I was brainwashed like many people into thinking he's horrible.

Then after Bernie lost I knew there was NO WAY I was voting for Hillary so I started exploring the options - and low and behold Trump's ideas where surprising hopeful. I just never bothered listening to him because the MSM made him out to be the devil.

I suspect the debates will be the first time many Hillary supporters and perhaps some independents hear him talk - and I suspect he will win some of them over.

The **********s are displaying a whole lotta false bravado in this thread.

The second Donald gives one of his patented word salad answers (sometime during the first minute of the debate), HRC wins. He is a complete and utter buffoon.

Really?

What the hell was he doing during the other debates? I watched every single debate he participated in, and even the one he was afraid to join. Sure, he is entertaining, he got in some fantastic zingers. As for policy, though? Yeah, he left me wanting more.

I've listened to everything he has to say. I don't believe he means any of it.

Anyone who has lived in the vicinity of this guy for the last 20 years knows this is a pile of BS.

Maybe you should listen to what he's been saying since the 80s, and you will learn even more about him. Such as how he is guided by his ego and his ego alone. And I do not believe that people who don't like him are the brainwashed ones. His followers behave as cult members do and appear to be the brainwashed ones ignoring the reality of who he really is and what the facts are.

I don't know why anyone would vote for either one of them, but you fail to include that Hillary is also A PROVEN liar (see Comey's testimony to Trey Gowdy under oath).

You have to remember that people on CD commenting are active in Politics.

Most people are not. I know many people who didn't watch a single primary debate. It's like they don't really care... they are too consumed with regular daily life things to care to educate themselves.

So yes, many people will hear him talk (instead of a little clip) for the first time during his debates. It's true.

Hillary has a long track record of completely failures, corruption, and outright criminal activity.

She is going to have to answer for her past.
No she isn't. Presidential debates aren't a free for all. They are highly organized with little room for anything that goes off script. They aren't going to ask any questions not related to the job of President. Trump has never been in a real debate like this before. If the last few with Cruz are any indiction then he is going to have a hard time if he isn't prepared for them.
