If Plugs is the nominee, I think watching him debate Trump would be hilarious, enormously entertaining. If you thought Gore was a buffoon when he debated Bush, just imagine the epic level of buffoonery from Plugs.

I would predict Trump would trigger Plugs over and over to the point where Plugs would melt down and try to take a swing at Trump LMAO LMAO.

He can will by boycotting them and just barnstorming from venue to venue, nationwide.

Laying in broadside after broadside, from all directions.

He has shown a unique ability for marathon.

The debates actually helped Dubya over Gore, because everyone got to see what an ass Al Gore really was (is).

Ancient history ... no longer relevant

Let the “Haters” Twist in the Breeze!

That's what I want to see.

Ignoring the debates and their candidate would infuriate Democrats.

Let Trump spend his time at rallies.

Let the Democratic nominee stand alone on national television ranting about how Trump won't debate him (or her).

“Let Hannity and Levin moderate one”

Nay, let Rush moderate a series of 3.

Or boycott.

He’s right, who would moderate it? Mark Levin? Rush? Yeah, never in a million years would they allow them, so you know it’s going to be leftists. Chris Wallace, and everyone at CNN. I think this is a good idea. Let them debate themselves. All the candidates are boring as hell and nobody is going to watch it

Great idea - the debates are rigged by the RAT media.

“ Hannity would interrupt all answers while Levin would act more like a prosecutor.”

Agree. He doesn’t know when to shut his pie hole. I’ve noticed that the only person he won’t talk on top of is Levin. I’m guessing that Levin has informed Hannity that if he does it to him he will get up and walk.

That would work too.

Let Trump negotiate each candidate gets to pick 1 or 2 moderators to ask the questions.

Democrats would scream bloody murder.

I keep thinking there will be another Candy Crowley moment, or instead of the moderator siding with one side or the other, all the questions will be leaked to the Democrat candidate beforehand.

I disagree. I think Trump saved his campaign in the post Access Hollywood debate. Great performance.

Sounds like a negotiating tactic. POUTS is just throwing jabs at Fake News.

More than 3 years in, and thy still haven't read his book!

PDJT will not get fair shake from the Commission on Presidential Debates. By refusing to participate, he could negotiate the terms

I don’t trust anything from The Shrill.

I’ll wait for POTUS to say this.

Have a Lincoln-Douglas style debate, PDJT would dominate.

Shocks are good—they keep the Democrats off guard and gets their media hacks to scream wildly and incoherently (while complaining that Trump is not acting Presidential). ;-)

Classic Alinsky stuff.

No moderators—I like it.

Nobody wants to hear the moderators.
