When Lauer asks Trump the first questions, Trump should preface his response with some statement to make clear where Lauer is coming from. Something like, “Matt, I hope that your past donations to Ms. Clinton in the amount of $60,000 (or whatever) will not bias the proceedings tonight.”

The debate probably will be watched by hundreds of thousands of people. They need to know, in simple words, that Lauer does have an agenda, and that the questioning will not be fair.

Milo Yiannopolous should moderate.

Hoping he spends 1/3 of his time slamming the media.

“The first point of order should be pointing out that he gave at least $20,000 to the Clintons to join their inner circle.”

If I were Trump, I would start the evenings festivities with a statement: “ Matt is involved with Hillary’s Foundation, and there are e mails from the DNC showing Matt literally begging to allow him to help Hillary out with the media.” OK folks, lets begin”

I can imagine how this will go:

For Hillary -

“Mrs. Clinton, when you heroically took out Osama Bin-Laden, did it finally bring you some sense of comfort to know that you brought closure to so many 911 families?”

For Trump -

“Mr. Trump, being that we are almost a month away from the election, don’t you think it is high time you apologized for your racist and sexist remarks?”

Just what I was going to say, this is scam to set up Trump because you just KNOW the pathological liar Hillary will lie her face off and Trump won’t be there on that stage to refute it. She said last week “Trump has a long history of racism” and I almost hit the roof!!! First off let her name even ONE act of racism by Trump, and second what is this “long history” bullsh*t? She will LIE her face off if there is nobody there to refute her and that’s what is going to happen here. She is a criminal and a pathological LIAR, that is ALL she is.

My advice to Trump:

Just say no. Then come back with a list of acceptable moderators. It's time to make a deal.

Dyin Hillary can’t face Donald Trump.......all her devious career she has been able to control the center of the stage........NOT against the alpha male!

The globalist conspirators have to change the format from a genuine debate to protect the expiring matron......(she must be very seriously ill at this time)

It will be one-hour forum where Clinton and Trump will answer questions about national security, military affairs and veterans issues in front of an audience mainly made up of members of the military. The two candidates will not be on the stage at the same time, but will instead go back to back.

Not a debate format.

The Media and the Establishment looks to protect Hillary as best they can. Trump in this format should go 2nd to refute the lying Hillary.

Did you text “phone in?” This is beyond ridiculous. Is Hillary making the rules yet again?

I think the key word there is “mainly.” That can mean anything in Clinton lingo.

Lauer and others endorsing the foundation by being members is really a donation in kind, and can be viewed as suspect as if they donated cash.
Of course Stephanopolous actually donated cash.

60 minutes total duration, appearing back to back.
So Hillary will be at the podium less than 30 minutes. Probably the longest she could handle it. And Trump will not be on stage with her, where he would dominate her with his imposing presence.

He should pass on this generous offer.
