The last election without a debate was 1972 Nixon-McGovern.

Does Hillary really want to be compared to Nixon as the last President to duck a debate?

“I wish her dad would have pulled out. What a spawn of Satan he created.”

You’re assuming that is how she was conceived.

Let’s consider this possibility. Let’s say Hillary pulls out of the debates. Trump then debates with the Libertarian and Green Party candidates?

Don’t know if that’s good or bad, but if PIAPS makes herself scarce, it might be good politics for Trump to bolster the Libertarian and Green Party candidates. Their voting base would not go for Trump in any event, but might vote for PIAPS. Make it easy for PIAPS supporters to either stay home or vote 3rd party, locking in the Trump win.

I agree...this is a “low expectations” play where showing up will be a win.

I would love a hanger with der Hildebeast’s empty suit next to the podium. Have her pants go up in flames to the tune:

Liar, Liar, Pants on fire
Your nose is longer than a telephone wire
Ask me diva what I’ve said.
You’ve been out all night, know you’ve been bad.
Don’t tell me different, know it’s a lie . . .

Trump should demand that the debates be held EVEN IF Hildebeeste doesn’t show up. I have complete confidence that he can talk for any amount of time he wants to. No need for the Beeste to be there.

Must take an awful effort to get that pair of hooves in patent leather.

Either she thinks she will do very badly or she is playing defense because she thinks she’s ahead... or both.

It is unthinkable that a candidate would go 263 days (according to Lou Dobbs last night) without a press conference that allowed question and answers.

But she’s done it.

It is also unthinkable that a candidate for POTUS would dodge the debates.

I think she will dodge the debates, and blame Trump for it.

Right now, he’s doing to her what he did to the other primary candidates. He’s living rent free 24/7 in her head.

How DARE someone have the audacity to question the queen?

I don't think they can if they haven't reached a certain percentage in the polls? Otherwise, they'd be on the stage to begin with.

Soak the pantsuit in bourbon so it burns better. Something cheap, like a pint of Ten High. Not worth wasting good stuff.

IF they can’t drug her enough to be able to withstand the debates, then I agree she will weasel out of them. Some illness or death that she could credibly miss them because of.

Maybe they will sacrifice Bill?

Good point. How about this?

PIAPS pulls out so no debate.

Trump sets up a PRIVATE debate, with part of the advertising proceeds going to veterans charities. At that debate, Trump debates the Libertarian and Green Party candidates.
