It’s not Trump who is making plans to avoid any debates.

LOL, That's for sure. This article is laughably absurd and a grossly obvious reversal of Hillary's fears.

Hopefully Trump and a moderator will talk to her at the same time during the debate, because this is what happens:

And it’s got to be particularly galling to Trump, who takes such pride in deal-making, that the Repubs make such a bad deal on the ground rules for the debates.

He’s trying to negotiate a better deal, but of course the liberals call it petulance.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he was negotiating such things as

“no oxygen tanks on stage”

“no bathroom breaks”

“no walkers”

Trump will clean Hillary’s clock.

Of course this IS Slate. So, consider the source.

Trump said he is glad to do three debates but he wants a moderator that will be fair. At last we have a GOP nominee that doesn’t sheepishly take whatever DNC hacks they throw at him.

“Trump ISN’T the one complaining!!!”

The only complaint that I’ve heard is that the debates have been scheduled to miminize the audience size/

When is someone going to out the Debate Commission for being full of lefties?

And Trump was asking why they were on NFL Football nights, he is thinking about the people that want to see the football and debates, nothing wrong with that...that’s why I won’t watch something if it interrupts my football...

Somebody needs to tell Little Jimmy the Slate Boy that Trump is pissing and moaning about the debates because he knows that if Clintoon croaks up on the stage, the turds in the liberal “media” are going to blame it on him. Take another toke Jimmy.

Yes. I continue to believe the Hillary people want to find a way to keep her from having to debate.

I hope Trump doesn’t say something they can twist around to justify cancelling the debates.
