....”The upcoming debates ‘might’ expose Trump to be a shallow opportunist who has diagnosed the problem but who has failed to rigorously think through his soundbite solutions.... Most likely, the upcoming debates will not derail Trump’s circus, it is still too early in the media cycle bubble, but it will begin the process”.....
Regardless of how he does in this first debate I tend to think he’ll fall back on this is still new to him and the media will continue to give him a ride.
On the other hand ....Trump may very well do far more admirably then people might expect. The debates are getting down to “business” he may put on his best performance yet.
Trump has research staff.
