Coin toss: Clinton up first at NBC forum (Trump won toss and chose 2nd - Live 8pm ET on NBC & MSNBC)
The Hill ^ | September 06, 2016, 08:32 pm | Joe Concha

Posted on 09/07/2016 8:29:36 AM PDT by Dave346

A coin toss has determined that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton will go first during Wednesday evening's Commander in Chief forum, hosted by the IAVA (Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America) and airing on NBC and MSNBC.

Clinton will take questions from moderator Matt Lauer and members of the audience -- which will largely be comprised of veterans and active service members -- for 30 minutes before Donald Trump takes the stage.

Both candidates stated a preference to be the second candidate to appear.

Dafna Linzer, managing editor for NBC News and MSNBC, performed the coin toss.

The event -- which marks the first time Clinton and Trump will be on the same stage, albeit not at the same time -- will be simulcast live on both networks at 8 p.m. ET.

> Does she know the questions ahead of time? Do not doubt it.

Clinton gave the questions to Congress in the Benghazi hearings. http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3466508/posts

She’s probably given the questions to Lauer.

Sleepy due to Robitussin with codeine, stoked on amphetamines to stay awake.
Yeah, she could blow a con-rod. Maybe this show should be rated PG?

Will Trump be allowed to listen to her answers?

“Will Trump be allowed to listen to her answers?”

Of course, this isn’t Quiz show. :)

He doesn’t need to. Nobody will want to tune in for her part.

I assume Hillary will not have access to his stage time, i.e, she will not be able to hear it or see it before her turn.

Its a live event - so no.

“Luck plays a role in success and Trump is a lucky person.”

God is Trump’s co-pilot.


I have been praying that God would be glorified through this election and I believe we see this as God has been working to protect and guide Donald Trump. When he wins I will give God glory and honor for His great work and giving out Nation another chance.

Why does the media love her so much. Ugh. She’s totally unlikeable and boring. Trump is so much more interedting, exciting and energetic. The media is beyond pathetic

I’m no longer religious, but those thoughts have crossed my mind as well. It appears at times that “something” is helping him along. We are still a blessed nation despite our enemies.

I saw the spit into the glass thingie in slow motion and then spent the next 10 minutes gagging over and over! Can you believe she spit in the glass and then drank some anyway right in front of the crowds and cameras? Makes me gag just to think about it again... so I love your nickname here, Senator Lugie... oh gosh, gagging again!

Not the right goal. Hillary is already unpopular and making her more unpopular should not be his end. He just needs to dispell the narrative of him being a bigot for the low info folks.

This is a ‘debate’???

Stick her on stage with Trump, both of them standing by a podium. Let them take questions at random from internet audience. For two hours

1 minute response, 30 second rebuttal. see how long she lasts...

Trump answer to any got you question.

The media is so dishonest
Matt Later, what do you mean?

Trump, well Matt, you were disgraced and run out of the media business. You are a director of the Clinton. You have numerous other conflicts of interest. You have failed to disclose your bias.

Matt, how is your professional rehabilitation going???

No....Trump does much better at a table rather than at a podium. He likes to intertwine his fingers.
