Hillary Clinton Campaign Can´t find Donald Trump Stand-In For Debate Prep

Hillary Clinton's campaign is having trouble finding an individual who can effectively mimic her Republican opponent as she prepares for the upcoming presidential debates, according to Campaign Manager Robby Mook.

"It's very hard to find someone to mimic the reckless temperament and the hateful instincts and divisive instincts of Donald Trump," Mook told CNN's Dana Bash on Sunday.

"Preparing for a debate with him is a challenging task, but Secretary Clinton is looking forward to the debate," Mook added. He suggested the debates will give Americans an opportunity to see how Clinton's "steady leadership" compares with Trump's "very reckless temperament."

In the months leading up to the debates, each presidential campaign traditionally hires an experienced politician to play their candidate's opponent so he or she can better prepare for the arguments and attacks they will likely face on the real debate stage. Ohio Sen. Rob Portman was the "sparring partner" for both Mitt Romney and John McCain in 2008 and 2012, standing in for senator and then President Obama.

While the Clinton campaign continues its search for the perfect person to play Trump, Mook said he's confident the right individual will come along.

"We'll get it done," he said, adding that he and the rest of the Democratic presidential hopeful's team are "looking forward to the debates."

The wicked witch of the west is showing desperation... She sure had NO problem soliciting money from Trump when it suited her bank foundation. This woman is an embarrassment for womanhood... Her mental capacity is not all that has been advertised over the course of her life.

Trump is having the same problem finding a debate opponent that lies for a living and smells like Old Lady With Poopy Diapers.

How can anyone with the name, Mook be taken seriously? Sounds like a Korean transgender pervert.

I agree.

She's used her phony pseudo-intellectualism coupled with constant virtue-signaling and slightly better-than-average communication skills to fake out other pseudo-intellectuals (of the type that infest universities and the government) for fifty years.

She's an empty pants suit.

Except now her pants suit is full of medical equipment to help her function in public.

Let me see, questions for Hillary. “What have you found to be your biggest challenges caring for the children of the world?”

For Trump. “Have you stopped beating your wife?”
