I don’t know why they want to ban Trump. The debate format isn’t his friend. The format of allowing a minute or two for answers and 30 seconds or whatever for rebuttals is not one he’s going to do well in. He has a problem staying on message without branching off onto ego-driven tangents. So I think the debate could cut his Republican nomination aspirations short, and hasten him towards his inevitable third-party run.
I expect more dominant media anti-trump panic stories, paid troll posts and vanity threads, and other WE ARE DOOOOOOOooooomed postings with only 500 DAYS TO GO! GASP!
