    Hillary Clinton committed weeks ago to the general-election presidential debates. Donald Trump has yet to officially sign on.

    One reason for the holdout: "I'll have to see who the moderators are," the Republican nominee told Time magazine last month. "Yeah, I would say that certain moderators would be unacceptable, absolutely."

    Personally, I still think he's just looking for reasons (excuses) to avoid (chicken-out of) the debate altogether.

    • Nah, he's just building up hype. He wants ratings. He wants everyone discussing if he'll debate, then when he does, he thinks that will make him look brave.
      ********
    • agree, he's a brilliant promoter, you have to give it to him...robotron3k
    • but he would be a chicken-shit if he did back out, right?monospaced
    • It would be ridiculous for him to not do any debates. Then again, we are talking about Trump here. His name is synonymous with ridiculous.
      ********
    • Ridiculous is right. I have money on a little bitch, full of bad excuses puss-out, but anything can happen.monospaced
    • I don't understand why people think the debates would not be in his favor. Or I should say, he's scared to do the debates? He killed it in the previous debates.sofakingback
    • Mind you, I don't mean he actual did well as far as traditional debating goes. But I think he managed to fuck it up enough to draw all the attention and make...sofakingback
    • everyone look bad. Because he doesn't answer any questions, he trolls the opponent and turns it in to a snaps battle instead. He has plenty of ammo against HCsofakingback
    • Why answer any questions when all he has to do is tie every single question/topic to the many faults HC has. He's gonna kill her.sofakingback
    • It worked in the previous debates and its gonna work again. I can't see anyone beating that childish tactic. its like trying to win an argument with a kid.sofakingback
    • Because most people don't see it like that. Most women, minorities and smart people see him for the loudmouth narcissistic prick he is.monospaced
    • If he approaches the debate like he did before, he's fucked. or chicken out like a total pussy like he did once before. Same thing.monospaced
    • Yes, I know the rational citizen wants the debate to be about the candidates answers to real problems. What I'm saying is it won't go down that way, becausesofakingback
    • It doesn't matter to him. he can't win getting approval the traditional way. He can only do crazy and hope it works. What on earth makes you say "he's fucked"sofakingback
    • as if thats not been a threat from the start? He can do and say anything and they will love him for it. Is he gonna win? hell no.sofakingback
    • But he's gonna make HC look terrible up there, he has so much to go off, unlike the previous debates. So, the question is can Johnson capitalize?sofakingback
    • The only guy that came close to shutting him up was Rubio, but that means you have to stoop down to his level, in which case makes you look worse. lolsofakingback
    • Its a troll. a real life, piece of shit troll. Its almost amazing.sofakingback
    • I'm getting popcorn but still think he will make some excuse to not debate Hillary.monospaced
    • He was on stage with many people who were desperate for attention and too terrified to really confront him. That was then.monkeyshine
    • Moderators have had a year of listening to his style and his rhetoric. They won't let him get away with without answering their questions.monospaced
    • Sounds hopeful. Its like saying we can control the trolls on QBN. we've been listening to them for a year, we know how to deal with them. :)sofakingback
