Some obviously biased remarks from Politico.

Politico is claiming the post-debate stone throwing by the media is as important as the debate. Sorry, I don't agree.

Hillary recites people’s names, department and institutional and committee names, legislation names. Doesn’t add up to much. Her canned answers are empty.

How Trump Could Win the Debate

Stand there and wait for Hillary to:
1. Fall down?
2. Go Bobble head?
3. Go cross-eyed?
4. Rant like Hitler?
5. All of the above?

It is during the debates where the undecided LIV will most likely rouse themselves from their slumber and see how Trump looks - compared to Hillary.

LIV’s have been told how scary, racist, xenophobic, etc, etc. Trump is; for them, all he has to do in the debates is present himself as reasonable, and somewhat statesman-like, and he will win over the majority of these undecideds.

They know they don’t want to vote for Hillary, so they just need to know that Trump looks “reasonable” to vote for him.

That’s how I see it anyway.

How Trump Could Win the Debate:

1) Show up. Hillary’s ratings will immediately go down.

2) Be ready to fight the Lying Leftist Scribes as much as Crooked Hillary.

3) Be Trump and let Hillary be Hillary. Hillary’s ratings will go down further as the “debate” progresses.

BTW, this is not a “debate.” It is a rigged Q&A session with the Leftist media, who are part Hillary’s campaign, running the show. Why Trump and the Right put up with this I’ll never know.

So Rich Lowry is reduced to writing for Politico. He’ll obviously work for anyone who will sign a check. There will be quite a few media “conservatives” who will be trying to find those checks after Trump wins.

Tell The Truth.

I for one am tired of lies and spin.

Even though I was not a Trump fan in the beginning, I have found his straight talk a quite refreshing contrast to all the usual Washington Weasel Wordage.

Any person that thinks Trump doesn’t know the issues or “the numbers” is an idiot.

What these people don’t understand is leadership is not about policy papers. Leaders develop the vision, and then they empower the people to come up with the best solution.

Hillary tells you what government will do for you. Trump talks about an America where people can plan their own success.

Trump will kill her in the debates. All he needs to ask if she is a liar whenever she opens her mouth.

... Hllary Clinton will almost certainly win Monday night’s epic presidential debate on points

... Trump won’t be particularly well-informed, and figures it won’t particularly matter

Faulty premises lead to faulty conclusions.

Hillary is not going to be able to get one whit more specific than Trump because she will perceive herself as contradicting herself on many of the points she would so make. I realize I am being “optimistic” WRT her utter shamelessness and pathological lying..she’s never shown resistance to that. But this will be under far more direct comparison and scrutiny.

She will hesitate in telling ways when she realizes what she has to say to counter what Trump says. And THAT is the trap Trump must lay for her. He really has to drop some greasy slimy banana peels on the floor and I’d be shocked if that was not under the most pointed preparation possible. He has to lay those mines in such a way that she might innocently START to reply and then catch herself. The realizations have to occur in her mind. It can be done. She is not spontaneous at all, and he has to goad her into being more specific than she would ever want to be.

Say something to her that will cause her to SCREECH!
She has a voice that would curl paint!
Imagine 4 years of listening to THAT!
I’d have to keep my hearing aides shut off for her entire term!

I just worry he’s spent so much time campaigning (where he controls the narrative) that one can only hope he is prepared to be a guest on Jeoprady where the other guest probably already has the questions

Here' one way to win...

Have the Trump camp demand that he gets to stand with a podium, use note cards, and have a pen.

Let the Clinton camp demand that she sit.

I am not sure the debate is going to happen. Not sure ILLary can stand for over an hour. Watch as this corrupt administration comes up with reason to cancel it.

All Trump needs to do is ‘Be Trump’...it has gotten him this far, it will get him the rest of the way into the Oval Office...

The other part of this debate is ‘Bat Shit Crazy’!!!

The media will claim a Hillary win no matter what; even if she passes out or takes a ten minute bathroom break.
