Trump should insist on standing and should give Hillary the option to sit or stand. She’d be screwed either way.

They are allegedly getting stools or chairs, so yeah.

Hillary will sit and and recover whenever she is off camera. The media will make darn sure not to show her then.

Trump should go over and rub her shoulders and neck...pat her on the shoulders. Ask her if she's alright.

Trump talks about these issues all the time. Hillary not so much.

Oh Hillary talks about it as well. :-) Of course her response is pure insanity but she talks about it.

Prosperity = tax the rich and more money into government stimulus / infrastructure projects

Security = take away the guns and quit demonizing and insulting muslims

Leftists like Hillary will have no problem with those topics as she can employ her usual demagogue crapola.

Hillary was not given the questions.

She submitted them.

what about ‘standing for 30 minutes’ ?

How about jump rope for 30 seconds.

These aren't even going to be close.

Hillarys' a no show on the campaign trail while Trump has been campaigning like I've never seen anyone campaign.

Now has more debate experience than Hillary

The media is snake bite they call him stupid and he daily outsmarts them its like a cartoon.

I'm sure Hillary campaign has been watching Trump improve and they know he has a command of the issues and is a master of chaos in the ring.

The jokes are just writing themselves. “In the bag” and “stool” in the same sentence! I’m sorry, Folks. I just couldn’t help myself.

I was wondering if anyone would pick up on that. You are right, the jokes write themselves. That particular one just seemed to leak out.

What happens if she springs a, er, leak in her urine bag?

It’s probably in the bag that Hillary will bring her own stool to the debate.

I see what you did there. Genius!!

...it reminds me of the routine from the comedy team Puke and Snot who played/plays Renaissance Festivals:

Puke: I got a leak in my new mug.

Snot: Well, go ahead, it's *your* mug.

You’re right. If she chose to sit, it would make her look weak and Mr. Trump look strong. If she chose to stand, well, she couldn’t do it for that long. Cue the long commercial breaks...

Yeah. He will try and Trump will come away looking good but dear Lord. Those topics sound like they play into Trumps wheelhouse. That’s the first sign they are poisoned pills.

On a kind of happy note, I’m sitting here after a long days work, sipping a beer before bed and recalling the primaries when Trump said something to the tune of “We are going to win so much that you are going to be sick of winning”.

The media laughed. And here we are now. Not so much laughing out of them now.

I’m glad we have this one final shot.

Will the NFL postpone Monday Night Football? If not, I’ll be absent from the Debate!

I have sworn off the entire NFL until they can teach their players to respect our country and stand for the National Anthem.
