Fight Night: Trump Will Win the Third Debate. Will It Matter?
Breitbart.com ^ | 19 Oct 2016 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 10/19/2016 5:59:23 AM PDT by Rockitz

Republican Donald Trump will likely win the third presidential debate on Wednesday evening at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

The question is whether his victory will matter enough to shift the polls, after so much damage has been done by recent accusations of sexual impropriety, which were delivered in carefully coordinated media attacks in the aftermath of the first debate on Sep. 26.

Trump will likely benefit from an “October surprise” of his own — namely, the release of videos by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas that show high-level Democratic political consultants taking credit for inciting violence at Trump rallies over the past year. Already, the revelations have forced senior consultant Robert Creamer — with close ties to the Hillary Clinton campaign and the White House — to step down, along with one of his lieutenants. More resignations may be coming, given evidence the campaign may have illegally coordinated with super PACs to carry out various political operations.

Two other factors favor Trump. One is the continued presence of low expectations for Trump, which persist in spite of the fact that he out-boxed his rival at the second debate. The second is the fact that the moderator is Fox News’ Chris Wallace, who can be tough on Republicans at times, but is likely to be less intrusive and one-sided than any of the other moderators have been thus far.

We should be having two prayers, one for Trump and one for the wisdom of the people.

Daniel 2:21
“It is He who changes the times and the epochs; He removes kings and establishes kings; He gives wisdom to wise men And knowledge to men of understanding.

1 Kings 3:9
“So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”

The New York Times and The Washington Post have probably already written their articles for tomorrow's editions proclaiming Hillary the winner...just waiting for the debate to insert some quotes from it.

Trump should keep coming back to Creamer, and ask Hillary to declare how many times she or her staff/surrogates met with him. And not accept any “I don’t recall” answers.

No,this one won't move anyone unless either one make a huge,huge,*huge* mistake.The key factor now is that Trump has said something that Jimmy Carter,who admitted to having “lusted in his heart”,probably said more than a few times.

You’ve got to wonder what is Hillary doing right now? I am 100 percent convinced it involves evil, trickery, drugs, and the answers to tonights’ debate questions. This also applies to the MSM.

I won't pretend that it won't matter. He took a dip in the polls in the week after the first one. Not much, but it did stifle his momentum a bit at the time. He's back, but we don't need any more recoveries. We need him out front already, across the board, out of the margin of voter fraud.

And of course, the news will spin it as another Hillary blowout.

I think she may have an episode on stage tonight. I don’t think her internals are good.

Before the second debate everyone was certain the media would declare HRC the winner.

Quite the contrary after... even CNN couldn’t fudge their BS “snap” polls like they did post-first debate.

If Trump does well in the debate it will put huge pressure on the GOP to fully support him for the last 3 weeks. If they don’t the party will descend into open civil war. Let’s see what happens after the debate.

The leftist doosh moderator is in the bag for the (D) traitors.

Wallace is the enemy.

His dad was a doosh traitor also.

I agree with one of the talking heads I saw last night on either Lou Dobbs or Hannity. Trump needs to clearly lay out what he will do the first day in office and within the first 100 days. He also needs to lay out his longer term goals and basically - to steal a phrase from years past - build a contract with America in order to preserve the nation.

Whether or not this will sway any additional votes or not remains to be seen but this forum is his last chance for unfettered access to the masses that wouldn’t normally be tuned in to a Trump rally.

Oberfuhrer Creamer is married to a Congresswoman. I’m sure that is how Hillary will pawn off any meetings with him.

It won’t matter a bit. Trump will crush her. She can not defend policy and she can not afford to sling mud as he has MUCH MORE ammo if she heads for the sewer. Look for her to go FULL wonk.

Her voters will proclaim her performance miraculous and Trump is just a mean bully, no matter what happens. In fact, I bet the BSM’s articles are written and the teleprompters have already been loaded with the “post debate comments”.

She could have a Grand Mal seizure and it won’t change a thing. They will just blame Trump.

Will I be watching? YOU BETCHA. BEST ELECTION EVER. Popcorn, need to go shopping.

I am hoping that DJT will ask Chris Wallace how much money he has given to the Trump Campaign/RNC.

It is an established fact that he gave to the DNC and Hillary.

The sordid picture coming forth of the Clinton’s moral history should make her unelectable without any consideration of who she’s running against.

Trump wins as the only man left standing!

I happen to think he will make a great leader.

Bottom line is the GOP needs to decide if it wants to win the White House.
