My thinking is that she will be seriously medicated to fend off the coughing, but these drugs will leave her loopy, slow, and barely going through the motions during the debate.
Hillary seems to think that she’ll do very well. Trump sits in business meetings with people who can buy and sell the Clintons three times before breakfast. She’s not going to rattle Trump.
Given her clear anger in yesterday’s video demanding to know why she’s not “ahead by 50 points”, there will be medication to make sure she doesn’t lose any remaining composure when he gets under her skin.
Hillary Clinton has enveloped herself with yes-persons and sycophants. Trump has no such predilections. The need to dope her up to be able to handle a serious debate will leave her barely conscious.
This will be a very, very interesting 90 minutes of television.
I aslo want to know will the candidates be inspected for reception devices...
She will have three or four bottles of water under the podium. Each one with a different drug for different situations. Color coded so she doesn’t mix them up. When coughing starts she’ll go for the red bottle. When head bobbling starts she’ll go for the blue bottle. When fainting starts she’ll go for the green bottle and when eyes start going crossed she’ll hit the yellow one.
She will be overmedicated. She will not be able to rattle him. She will act like a zombie.
“This will be a very, very interesting 90 minutes of television.”
Hence the rules.
They may be starting to realize she’s going to lose, so may as well fall back on their real interest: grabbing eyeballs to watch high profile failure live.
