Were I you - I would worry about my OWN candidate being prepared - considering how he crashed and burned at the first debate.


MOST of his supporters would like him to be a bit more prepared second time around. If not, she'll crush him again.


I can't wait!

I think I am am beginning to see part of the Trumpistas' issues, here, and it sounds like some deep-seated resentment.

If you're from a small town in a remote state, Hillary is the embodiment of that obnoxious girl who always arrived well-prepared in class. The one who did her homework, put up her hand, answered correctly, took the exams, got accepted to a good university, got the ever-lovin' out of Podunk at the first opportunity and never looked back.

I do think we've got a bit of insecurity going on. Hillary IS that girl; smart, degreed, world traveled; an the backwaters cannot stand it.


Fortunately for them, she will care about them whether or not they care about her.

Any educated person - will prepare for the presentation of their life. Trump's bid for the Presidency probably rides on this debate. You better cross your fingers and hope he can focus that lizard brain of his for more than 5 minutes.


And again, I detect some insecurity. Just because Hillary is smart, educated, and tough - does not mean she has disdain for Americans.


IF she has disdain for Bannon and his ilk and his followers - I am completely on board. I have disdain too.

Seems like preparing for the last debate did her a lot of good. Hopefully Trump goes into debate #2 with the same level of preparation he had for debate #1.

I think Trump was forced to be restrained against Hilly. In the past, he trashed Cruz, Marco, and Jeb far more than he did Hilly. I think the kid gloves come off at the next debate where he will tear into her so badly, that idiotic smirk on her face will be replaced with the deer in the headlights look she usually has.

It had nothing to do with restraint and everything to do with Trump having no grasp of issues/policies. The fact that he can't speak coherently is the cherry on top. That kind of stuff works with the Republican base but not the general electorate.

I, too, hope he "tears into her." Every time he tries he looks like the huge jerk that he is and alienates more voters. Hillary is no Marco Rubio. She can handle Trump.

Which will work you and people like you up into an even higher frenzy, and turn the undecideds against him. And guess what: He already has the votes of your crowd, and it's not enough.

Clinton foundation pay for access will likely come out . I think that's more damning than a businessman paying the least possible legally in taxes .

Because the ridiculousness that passes for a debate in the Republican primaries does not work in the General Election. Most people do not want to see a remake of that clown show whre Trump went on about the size of his hands.


The general election audience wants to see REAL ISSUES discussed.

Oh, goodness they will be SO worked up; whilst millions of undecideds walk away from Trump forever.

Perhaps Trump's own bribe to the Florida AG will come up.

Trump's foundation just got served a cease and desist order for soliciting charitable donations without the proper certification. There's evidence that Trump used $30,000 in foundation money to buy two portraits of himself. There is also evidence that Trump has told people who owe him money to pay the Foundation instead. That might be okay, except that it raises tax questions because he's supposed to pay taxes on income and he may be hiding it in the foundation. There's also the issue that it does not appear that Trump has contributed any of his own money to the foundation since 2008. And the fact that Trump has paid his personal legal fees out of the foundation's money.

So if Trump wants to talk about foundations, he should be prepared for Hillary to counter with all of the above.

He's also now funded a campaign with illegal donor money. Hope he has to pay every cent back. Then he'll claim a huge loss so he doesn't have to pay taxes for the next 20 years. Let the little people pay for his Secret Service protection.
