Disregard stupid questions and pound home the talking points. Just because you are asked a stupid question or are being set up that you have to play along like Jeb or Mittens would do.
Correct! In the debates Trump needs to have a specific set of talking points he wants to put forward. Ignore the stupid gotcha questions and go after Clinton through detailing her corruption or asking her to respond to his questions.
Trump can use the fact that she refuses to do any open press conference and the media is openly promoting her. So he is justified in asking her questions directly.
