Donald Trump says he will 'absolutely' attend all three general election debates - under certain conditions.

'I'll have to see who the moderators are. Yeah, I would say that certain moderators would be unacceptable, absolutely,' Trump told Time magazine in an interview today. 'I want to have fair moderators … I will demand fair moderators.'

“Now the media, will have to provide fair moderators.”
No they won’t.
The media will offer ‘moderators’ like Candy Crowley, Charlie Gibson, and Megyn Kelly, then cry foul when Trump rejects them. The whole libdem universe will condemn Trump for chickening out.


Bingo. Take it to the bank.

Of course if Trump wins the debates, they’ll just accuse him of being a “bully”.

He won't even have to win, all he needs to do is say just one word against her.

Just ask Rick Lazio.

You got that right, Hillary will get all the questions in advance.

The debates should be in a Trump Tower office.

Every question posed to Hillary would set off a 10 second sequence of strobe lights.

Neil is still out, recovering from open heart surgery.

Besides, he’s been more than biased...against Trump....prior to his medical leave. So, no thanks.

Love Maria, but her eyes are always so watery, under the debate lights. Wouldn’t want to cause her unnecessary discomfort :)

So, Sean and Lou it is!!

Yes....definitely Laura Ingraham.

Sean, Lou and Laura.

Sounds more than fair to me.

Whatever happened to the League of Women Voters sponsorship of the Presidential Voters that happened in the 1970s. I suspect they might do a good job and put it on C-Span. I don’t trust the networks.

Trump could host his own debates with Hillary in an empty chair.

Clint Eastwood as moderator.

Trump should have another debate with Jill Stein by her self. This would give Jill free publicity and the votes she gets will come from Hillary.

Yup. No potty breaks, water or cough drops. Prior to the first question fro a moderator, Trump should ask Hillary if her bark collar is comfortable.

Yes, Trump could debate this chair.

Didn’t realize he was still out and that I misspelled his name. (Should have looked it up.)

Now the media, will have to provide fair moderators.

Hehe.

A lot of people may view this as a cave on his part, but he really has no choice but to appear at a debate and probably as many as he can. I don't know who is supposed to select moderators, but he may face some difficult choices. He really isn't in any position to dictate to the organizing group because Clinton may not need the debates at all.

We'll see how it goes.

Perhaps dual moderators? Each side picks one.

A 2 hour debate where she stands the entire time may finish her off...What do you bet they sit for all 3 debates.

Yep, town hall style, they sit until they get a question, then they slowly walk towards the person to appear sensitive and caring.

Stick to your 'conditions', Trump, or else you will be CROWLEY-IZED BIG TIME. The Enemedia is itching to AMBUSH Trump during the debates so he MUST insist on NOT allowing certain moderators such as Blitzer, Tapper, Lemon, etc..

Greta is about the only fair moderator out there.
