Trump should accept any moderator they want, in exchange for one condition - that both candidates stand for the entire two hours.

No chairs.

Lol sorry, wrong thread!

[DouglasKC]

Oh heck...I'll supply the answers...

I don't know.

I don't recall.

This is a political stunt.

Mix and match..

Wrong thread or not it’s a great idea, smiling just thinking about it.

She will give vague evasive answers with lots of “I don’t recalls”. The judge will tell her to answer again in more detail, which will push it off until after the election.

Nice tagline...my namesake ;)

Thanks for posting the questions!

[jazusamo]

Most welcome, friend.

She won’t answer or will answer in non-responsive ways such as pretending not to understand the clear meaning of the question... The judge will then do NOTHING pending a complaint from Judicial Watch asking for more specificity.... Hillary will be given another 30/45 days to answer which will put this past the election.

Under the federal rules of civil procedure, if she does not serve her answer within the 30 day period, she can be subject to sanctions. She can simply object to some of the questions on any one of a number of grounds (and then answer them subject to the objection). If she simply objects to a question, Judicial Watch can then move to compel her to answer the interrogatory.

Aside from moving for sanctions should she not respond at all, that motion to compel would be the only immediate further action that Judicial Watch could take. Clinton would have 17 days (14 under the local rules plus 3 under the federal rules) to file an opposing memorandum. Assuming JW files a motion to compel immediately after the interrogatory answers are filed, that memorandum in opposition would not be due until October 17th. JW would then have 10 days (7 under local rules plus 3 under the federal rules) to submit a reply. Assuming JW instead immediately replies the day after Clinton's opposition, the matter would be in the district court's hands a full three weeks before election day. But the court won't rule immediately, and even if it rules in JW's favor, it could well set a date after election day for the answers.

Nothing like a bit of ‘discovery’. Imagine what her lawyers think about this right now. LOLOL!
