Honestly I think this is for the best - gives Trump a chance to address the issue and put it behind him right out of the gate. If done right, he should be able to deflect any further references by saying we need to return to the issues.

I agree, answer and then switch to a more relevant topic. There are so many relevant topics.

Terrorism
the economy
health care
hillary's ties to Soros
leaked emails
pay to play
Bengazi
and so many more.

I don’t think he was arrogant in the first debate. I think he was being very safe and non provoked, a different Trump but a more presidential Trump.

Trump is going to have to rattle Clinton, get her off balance and lose it

She has weaknesses, he just needs to exploit them

I hope she has a redux of what transpired at the 9 11 ceremony
during the first question and the debate would be brought to a close.

No, and I’ll tell you why! What do you think those days off for preparation for the vomit were? All three of them the beast and the moderators, got together or were in constant Communication devising a plan how to strangulated trump ...a three on one attack! To me it is like dodging bullets from every direction while everybody is shooting at you at one time. Your thought process is all over the board and you find yourself on the defensive! That is exactly their game plan while they pamper the bitch from hell with soft balls! Bank on it ....The RNC is to blame as well for falling into their debate setting trap EVERY. FREAKIN ELECTION!!

That has to be annoying.

My entire family except for one snowflake nephew is all pro-Trump. And even the snowflake is anti-Hillary (he’s voting Johnson as a protest vote).

All the stories about the Clinton’s have been around for a long time, nothing new.

Everyone needs to wake up and realize the Clinton’s are suckering all the Trump supporters into talking about anything except issues that matter.

It is a masterful political move by the Clinton’s to distract from Hillary’s liberal and immoral philosophy that she intends to take to the White House.

Think about it - who is in charge of the debate? Who is setting the agenda? The Clinton’s are using the media to decide what we talk about. FR posts are a perfect example of being led by the nose by them.

Trump needs to convince the undecided to ignore the personal and think about borders, Supreme Court, tax reform, security, and jobs.

That’s it, 5 points, no more. Hammer them home, talk about nothing else.

This will be the silliest 'debate' ever!
Journalism will reach it's peak: "Why do you hate women, Mr Trump?"

WRONG. He said that when you are a celebrity women ALLOW you to behave this way. Nothing he said implied lack of consent. He was talking about “groupie” behavior, which celebs and rock stars are well familiar with.

I would rather see Trump not bring up ANY of Bubba’s past - but say - There’s probably not one American by now that doesn’t know about some unwise locker room banter I said 11 yrs ago - Days have now been spent by the media on this....while largely ignoring what “the Other Hand” is doing - This excessive drum beating on ‘the tape’ is drowning out what is going on right now - not just all the destroyed emails - but, for example, the cover-up connections between the The head of our FBI, Comey, and Clinton... These things are of vital National interest that impact us all. Let’s just take the ONE story that should - at least - have the amount of coverage of ‘the tape’ - That the FBI rank and file are outraged at the damage to the bureau that has been done by Comey and demanding an investigation into very serious apparently criminal collusion between Comey and the Clinton camp - which included even Comey giving the Clinton camp permission to destroy their laptops to prevent information on them from being discovered!
The American people are owed the anwsers on this scandal and many others - Like Where Hillary lost $6 BILLION dollars of the tax payers money while Sec of State - and NO ONE is asking where it went....

Like the newly discovered information on the Iran deal - that shows the DEAL was all on Iran’s demands -

Maybe take a look into the 5-6 people connected with the information tat exposed the criminal behaver of the DNC suring the campaign - that all suddenly ended up dead - under very susipisious circeumstancs.

To get back to’ the tape’ - I was a private citizen, no one was blackmailed, no one was raped, nothing harmed our country and NO ONE DIED. The American people are smarter than you - or Hillary, who has, long before her ‘deplorable’ statement, referred too as 50% illiterates - The American people can see this whole thing for what it is: pure nasty politics at it’s worst. And when the Clinton’s are concerned - it’s been decades of the nastiest of politics - and the American people see thru’ the Clinton lap-dog media too.
The American people want - and deserve - to be TRULY represented in Washington. THis is what the real battle going on is about: If I’m elected - an outsider not owned by special interests, not compromised by cronyism - the established cabal, and who will put in place people who are also not part of the cabal - in other words, we will sweep the halls in DC clean - and they are panicked. The corruption as usual will STOP.

Forget mentioning the Bubba bimbo’s - no sophomoric tit for tat - Get straight to the REAL issues that they are trying to keep off the news

I would never never answer any questions about this subject at the debate. Tell the moderator he is not going there in the gutter with the media and then tell him to ask hillary, she ought to know about those things from her husband who has raped women.. they will not let him finish the sentence about bill.. they don’t want the public to hear it. but don’t answer the question.. be the honest one and tell them the reason they want to go there.. they don’t have answers for truth... and toss it to hillary.. don’t give them ammunition by talking about it.

I’m sure politics will not be discussed which is fine with me. I think I will kick back with a drink or two.

All the kids my daughter knows (university age) detest Clinton. A few are Trump supporters (conservative state) but most don’t like him either, at least admittedly. Most concede they believe Clinton hates most Americans and that “Trump doesn’t need to be doing this, he really loves the country”. (paraphrasing)

At this point I don’t think we even need questions. Just start with either candidate, “what do you want to start with?”....let it go from there. The questions just become a tool to direct the “debate”, they’re not really needed - these two should have plenty to say to each other.
