It will be watched across the country as people gather together and cheer like the Romans in the coliseum watching the lions eat Christians. The final two shots to Hillary’s mid-section were that her tag team partner Gary Smoke Johnson was cut out and there will be no ear pieces allowed.
I wish I had your optimism.
As much as I admire Trump, he’s only human, and he’ll have everything stacked against him.
I’ll be biting my nails hoping he can survive the inevitable attempts to catch him not knowing some obscure foreign policy detail, like the name of some stupid foreign leader or foreign city or weapons program.
Hopefully, he’ll have some endearing ways of deflecting these attacks, or simply say “I don’t know”.
You can bet they will be trying the whole time to engineer situations where Clinton gets to make fun of Trump not knowing something, and the whole stacked audience laughs at him.
Am I being too pessimistic? I don’t think so.
But I will offer this bit of optimism: If they do catch him in a few traps, and manage to publicly make a fool of him - it still ain’t over till it’s over.
Publicly humiliating him over some trivia could backfire on them “big league”.
The press has record low approval and if they reveal the true extent of their meanness and their slant - Trump could get a huge sympathy vote on November 8th.
