THE DEBATES 2016

This debate is a bigger risk to Hillary. Trump could take a poop on the podium and his polling numbers might drop a few points at most. His stratagy has worked. He can no longer shock us. He has attained Mike Tyson zone where any story you could dream up may possibly be true.

If Hillary has to take a pee break or goes into a coughing fit or goes insane for having to deal with Trump, her numbers will drop more.

agree. sad but Hillary must appear fully healthy or it will be very bad for her. she needs to be strong, decisive and not get frustrated by his baiting. he will say nothing of consequence.

Trump will do his usual ad libs and be funny in doing so, while his fans will love and eat it up. I won't watch the tomfoolery.

Peace

My thoughts exactly. This will be worse than any stupid reality TV I can imagine.

She also has the added difficulty of navigating the inherent sexism in America.
If she is equally aggressive as Trump it will be viewed by many in a negative way, she can't be as forceful without being seen as a "shrew" and whatnot. Her voice doesn't do her any favors there.
This is well documented and recognized among folks who do PR, marketing, focus groups and all that.

Good post. It is frustrating, because I sometimes fall into this, and have to catch myself. When Hillary starts raising her voice it does come across like nails on a chalkboard to me, but I recognize that she needs to be assertive and at times aggressive, especially in her own defense. Trump will be stirring shit up and in general being a dick, but he'll get a pass. Hillary will have to defend herself, probably roll her eyes or make faces a few times trying to shrug it off, or raise her voice to get a point across, and she'll be the one to be made to look bad. She will easily out-debate Trump, but she won't necessarily "win" the debate. That's the dilemma for her. The debate has the potential to do more harm than good for her campaign.

If her interview (?) with Zach Galifianakis is any indication, she is capable of acting like she is not annoyed by someone for about 2 minutes max. How will she survive 90 minutes with Trump?

Is Vegas taking bets on how long before she cracks and chucks a microphone at Trump's head?

seriously?....it's all a joke man

I think she was aware that is was a joke and her people told her it would be hip to do, but I don't think she was acting and playing along past the two minute mark.

Also, why would Hillary agree to do something that would show her in the worst possible light? That's not her M.O.

If that's not her M.O., then shame on "her people" for proposing it, as it's clearly Zach Galifianakis' M.O.

The jokes on us, Trump debating? He will do no such thing. He will be the general turd, dick, assclown he always is and the mouth breathers will eat it up.

Have you ever watched between 2 ferns before? It's all staged comedy, aimed to put the guest in a good light. All the questions have been vetted before hand. Hillary knew exactly what she was doing.

She was joking about regretting the interview.

Whoosh! I feel like AMT has been taken over by a bunch of 80 year olds screaming "get off my lawn". You clearly didn't get it.
