‘Donald Trump’s Special’ (Clinton too weak to debate Trump by herself)
WSJ ^ | 9/26/2016 | James Toranto

Posted on 09/26/2016 11:11:54 AM PDT by GilGil

It’s normal to play down one’s own candidate’s strengths and play up the opponent’s, but this is ridiculous. Mook is saying Mrs. Clinton—who we’ve been told endlessly is the most qualified man, woman or child ever to seek office anywhere in the universe—can’t handle a debate unless the moderator takes her side. What’s going on here?...

...she can’t do it on her own, because her dishonesty is already established in most voters’ minds. Thus she needs the help of an outside authority, the moderator.

Why would he want the other candidates included? That makes no sense, he just needs to keep the spotlights on Shrillary and her glaring weaknesses. No distractions!

What this means is that Hillary's debate prep isn't going well.

I know, not a very profound point.

It's just that it amazes me that her people ever thought she could salvage this. How deluded must they be?

The main thing is, what are the people she took hundreds of millions of dollars from for pre-paid influence going to do when they realize she's collapsing?

Some of them aren't the kind of people who are just going to chalk it up to experience.

I’m thinking they already have a contingency. If they don’t, they are morons.

Something like....She mopped the floor with Trump tonight. Only took 20 minutes. No need to go on with the next 70 minutes. Debate over. She won. Have a nice night. Her next appearance will be in 2 weeks, once she gets over this case of dehydration.

Too many people in the media and voters at large assume they have the same talents as Trump and are able to think on his level. They cannot. Trump has tremendous talents and he already knows how he is going to skin Hillary alive at a level most would not understand.

Remember how he has said over and over again that he thought he could beat her easily. That was not over confidence. To Trump there is a lot more going on than Hillary. The voters are all that matters and he knows how to get through to them in a way ordinary people simply cannot grasp especially the media.

After trouncing 16 opponents you’d think people would have a little more respect for the man’s abilities.

“Perhaps they should provide a hypo-allergenic carpet for her to chew.”

Huma is said to be both hypo-allergenic, non-GMO, and halal.

She’ll need to go on a booze bender after the debate and it will take her 2 weeks to recover.

That is what it means.

Her brain is swirling around like a top, thanks to wet brain and her seizures.

She can't concentrate.

.....it's also a sign of the despiration from h-ill-ary's campaign....they're basically saying we need more buckets...the ship is sinking!

Wish I could look at their internal polling.

1 minute into the debate they’ll have to call it off because Bill has chest pains and she needs to rush to the hospital with him. Tomorrow they’ll say that he’s fine, just indigestion.

The DNC has to be at a point where they must realize that their candidate is sick by every measure that a person can be ill: mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. All-consuming blind ambition is all that is keeping her going. Her lust for power is all that is providing her energy to move forward.

That said, this does lower the bar for her. All she has to do is NOT faint or have a meltdown on stage in order for the American Soviet Media to declare her the winner.
“Hillary didn’t have a stroke; therefore, she wins!” - Media Chorus

Frankly, I do hope that Mr. trump reduces her to a drooling, babbling mess. Sure, the ASM shall declare him a “Big Ol’ Meanie”, but he will have put to rest the notion that Sen. Clinton is a tough cookie.
