Hillary Clinton Gives Mark Cuban Front Row Seat to Debate in Blatant Attempt to Psyche Out Trump
Mediaite ^ | 23 Sep 2016 | Joe DePaolo

Posted on 09/23/2016 11:13:33 AM PDT by mandaladon

Dallas Mavericks owner and Shark Tank star Mark Cuban has been known to make his presence felt while sitting in the front row at his team’s games. Whether it’s by yelling at the refs, or criticizing them on Twitter, or even coming out on to the court, the Mavericks owner has frequently gotten involved in the action from his front-row seat.

And thanks to the Hillary Clinton campaign, that’s exactly where he’ll be on Monday night.

The democratic nominee has given Cuban a prime ticket to watch the first presidential debate at Hofstra University on Long Island.

The ticket is a coup for Cuban, who has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump‘s over the past few months after initially supporting him. Last week, Cuban offered Trump $10 million to a charity of his choice if he agreed to a four-hour interview with Cuban focused strictly on policy.

CNN reports that the Clinton campaign was only too happy to accommodate the Mavericks owner. The network quotes an unnamed Clinton aide as saying: “He has the best seat we have access to.”

Does Hillary own the rights to the front seats or does Trump have some invitations he can make? I’m thinking Juanita Broaderick or Julian Assange...

If Cuban thinks Trump is going be thrown of his game or something by him sitting there and scowling or whatever he plans to do, I hate to break it to him. I’ve been to these type of debates before, the venues are a lot larger than they look on TV, the spotlights are on the candidates and the moderators, and the audience is over 50 feet behind the moderators in a darkened auditorium. Between the spotlights and distance, Trump will not be able to even see Cuban. (Not that anybody with Trump’s long history in the public spotlight and on TV would be thrown off his game anyway....)

Cuban’s theory (I just heard it on a radio show) is that Trump can’t take it when people think he’s dumb. So Cuban will sit in the front row and make faces, laugh and shake his head in an attempt to rattle Trump.

So glad Cuban’s ego kept him from remaining quiet until the debate. Now Trump’s team is aware of this and will hopefully prepare him for this.

Perhaps Trump should have Juanita Broddrick set in the front row. Who else should he have up front?

Trump should have all his supporters wear sequin covered tops, the better to dazzle ‘Illary with.

Trump needs to invite

Lydie Denier, an actress, model, and former fiance to the late Ambassador Chris Stevens, said in an interview that Hillary Clinton failed to do her job by ignoring repeated requests for additional security in Benghazi.

Trump needs to give a front row seat to one of the mothers of Benghazi victims that Hillary called a liar.

Excuse me? Trump is going to a debate, who is in the audience does not matter. If Cuban wishes to blert out something, I’d think it makes him way more the fool.

Plus this is a stand up debate, Hillary won’t last, it will be on national TV when she collapses. Trump needs to learn CPR and fast 1st aid because he’ll be the closest of us to save her.

I’m thinking Juanita Broaderick or Julian Assange..

Assange is holed up in an embassy in London.

But, I think that Juanita Broderick would be a great choice.

Better yet: Monica Lewinsky. :-)

He can’t hurt Trump but he can deflect attention from Hillary when she starts coughing and has to shoot up her Dr. Feelgood cocktail.
