Trump is so fucking scared of debating that today he's suggesting that it shouldn't even have moderators. He's saying that the presence of moderators is a sign of the system being rigged, and instead wants to just argue off-script. Surprise surprise. He'll probably puss out, anyway.
“The fact is,” Trump continued, “that they’re gaming the system, and I think, maybe, we should have no moderator. Let Hillary and I sit there and just debate because I think the system is being rigged so it’s gonna be a very unfair debate, and I can see it happening right now because everyone’s saying that he was soft on Trump. Well now the new person’s gonna try to be really hard on Trump just to show, you know, the establishment what he can do. So I think it’s very unfair what they’re doing. So I think we should have a debate with no moderators — just Hillary and I sitting there talking.”
- Just lining up those excuses.monospaced
- They don't need a moderator they need an ambulance standing by.Dillinger
- an ambulance... or perhaps a district attorney?PonyBoy
- https://en.wikipedia… they'd both be fucked in this format.********
- how can trump debate Hillary when she is in her death bed right now?********
- that's right, omg, she's going to be dead within the week, I totally forgotmonospaced
- the thing is moderators are only there for the networks self interests in controlling the show. I'd support the idea but not for trumps reasons.********
- the networks host of course but moderators are there for the publics self interest and to keep the candidates on topics and not on prepared speechesmonospaced
- All debates have moderators. There's a structure so that an actual debate can occur. It's not rigged against trump in any way imaginable. It can't be even.monospaced
- Suggesting that it's biased against him is not only untrue in every way, it makes him look like a whining pussy who is scared shitless of actual debate.monospaced
- And I don't blame him. He has very little experience. He knows no details about anything and he has such a limited vocabulary he can hardly articulate a thoughtmonospaced
- He's just paranoid because he thinks the moderators won't allow him to avoid the questions or allow him to rant and insult like they did before. Rightly so.monospaced
- moderators are also there to keep them on topics that will keep eyes glued to the set. why short and sweet answers to huge questions********
- remember its entertainment and revenue first********
- long speeches explaining ones views like lincoln and douglas had would not get good ratings these days and that is why we have this format********
- doesn't fucking matter what the topics are, Trump is scared shitless because they would ALL require him actually knowing something, which we all know he doesn'tmonospaced
- fact of the matter is the moderators are going to ask questions that pertain to where they stand on policies that the voters care about. period.monospaced
- ratings or not, all questions are going to be about world and national affairs, areas where Trump is a complete failure if he isn't reading from a telepromptermonospaced
- if you haven't noticed, ALL of his speeches are just littered with messages based on completely false data, resulting in flat out lies, which the crowd LOVESmonospaced
- he won't be able to do that at a debate, because he will have to actually answer real questions. Back to my original point, he just wants to bicker, because ...monospaced
- ... he's no better than a narcissistic, insecure prick who knows he doesn't really stand a chance if he can't just be allowed to randomly rant his hatemonospaced
