Axelrod: Maybe Clinton should reconsider final debate

Democratic strategist David Axelrod on Saturday suggested that Hillary Clinton skip her third and final debate with Donald Trump.

The former White House adviser to President Obama responded to Trump's call for a drug test before his next debate with Clinton later this month.

"You have to wonder if @HillaryClinton will/should reconsider next debate, given the depths to which this has sunk," Axelrod tweeted.

Drug testing?!? You have to wonder if @HillaryClinton will/should reconsider next debate, given the depths to which this has sunk. — David Axelrod (@davidaxelrod) October 15, 2016

ADVERTISEMENT Trump floated the idea of a drug test during a campaign rally Saturday in New Hampshire, comparing himself and Clinton to athletes preparing for a big event.

What is it you people are always telling us? Oh yeah. If you’ve got nothing to hide, then why not give it up?

This is just a good excuse. She’ doesn’t want to take even a tiny chance on Wallace and she sure the hell does’t want to discuss Wikileaks.

Axlelrod feigning to sidestep the drug testing. Act insulted, then pout...all possibility of drug test thwarted.

They are a slippery bunch of mongrels.

Actually, I think each candidate, and the moderators,should be given a drug before the debate....sodium pentothol.

It’s funny, conservatives challenge liberals on facts and liberals call them liars. Nearly every time the smoke clears, the evidence clearly support the conservatives and the liberals just refuse to respond. Trump challenged her hard on things last weekend and her response was to constantly suggest people go to her website.

She’s scared!!! They are ALL scared. The truth about them is piling up in what has become an overfull landfill of filthy politics. Is America waking up? Vote Trump!

Maybe she should also consider dropping out of her corrupt, lying and dishonest campaign for the presidency.

Wow, Trial Balloon!

I can see it now:

“To avoid subjecting the American people to Donald’s continuous sleaze tactics, I’ve decided to take the “high road” and skip Wednesday’s debate.”-Hillary

Fawning media ensues.

Do we need any more proof that the Dems know that Clinton lost the last debate badly, regardless of what they claim? They’re afraid he’s going to annihilate her next time.

Until I recently I worked for the USPS, because I was qualified to drive postal vehicles and operate power equipment, I had to agree to submit to drug and alcohol tests at any time, without cause, no matter how squeaky clean my driving record is. Is it too much to ask to have our elected officials as well as those seeking office do the same? ?

She would never pass such a test unless her personal lady doctor who gives her her “feel good” shots gave her the test, the shot that cured Hillary’s pneumonia in 90 min on Sept. 11. Trump is right. The entire system is rigged.
