Will there be a drinking game? Take a drink every time hiLIARy’s eyes boggle. Take a drink every time hiLIARy coughs.

She’s been rehearsing for this debate for months. Trump probably less so.

I’ve watching clips of Trump on Letterman over the years. The poise and clarity in his voice is remarkable even back in 1988. The audiences applaud loudly when he arrives, and the most important thing, is that he knows about the world.

Hillary can prepare foe then years, and she does not command the knowledge and experience that Trump has. She’s running on a failed record, he’s coming in fresh. She represent the problem and the negatives of our world, he represent real hope and change for the future.

Hosted by CNN, the Clinton News Network. Anyone think the moderators will be fair?

Here's a little pre-Election reading for you all!

The fix is in with the mainstream media on the upcoming debate. The headlines have been written, the polls have been doctored, and the "Comeback Kid" stories have been dusted off and touched up.

It's of no matter however. Trump is rolling and there's no stopping the Trump Train.

Good morning Nikos and the rest of you Adorable Deplorables

Thanks for starting this debate thread, Nikos.

I’m reposting what I posted a little while ago on the Roanoke Rally thread re the SMTS, so it will be handy for TF members.

Thank you for posting this!!!

[Jane Long]

Hee hee!! Perfect!

That breakfast muffin from the other thread was delicious. I'll be following Kellyanne on the Sunday Talk Show thread, probably "laying low" otherwise.

Beautiful autumn weekend here. Cool, dry, clear. Everything quite green "right here," but starting to turn autumn colors and autumn smell nearby. Doggie was ecstatic on my return, nearly "wagged himself in half," which is what no-tail dogs do when they lose-control-happy.

On the debate, I figure all the press speculation -- and that is all they are doing for the next two days -- will be shown incorrect.

I am afraid I cannot consume that much of any liquid beverage including water in 90 minutes.

I hope Hilly "burns down her own house" with her lies.

I'm going to join the Haitians and get out my Hilly voodoo doll .... sharpening my pins now.

Good morning, you deplorable Georgian,you!

Thanks for the thread,Nikos!

Have company this weekend, so I missed Roanoke last night—I’ll have to catch it on Youtube.

New national polls have Trump and The Harridan in a virtual tie, and I am scratching my head.

The Harridan has no rallies, no campaign events,no policy papers, no ideas and draws 500 or less to any event she has—and all her events are on campuses of some kind where there is a built in student component of attendees.

Then look at that crowd last night, and all the other Trump rallies.

And she is tied?

Not seeing it, folks.

If you are going to church today, please stress to your friends the importance of this election and why a vote for Trump is essential to the right future for the country and their families.

The churches-with their participation or with their lack of participation—are going to decide this election..

If the people who say they are Christians would vote for Trump, Trump will win in a landslide.

We missed 20-30 million evangelicals at the polls in 2012—they cannot stay home this time around.

This election is for all the marbles on multiple levels.

Good morning Nikos.

Thanks for the thread and getting it out early.

So looking forward to this 1st debate, what a contrast in policies and personalities.

I know Trump will rise to the occasion and be his fantastic self.

Hitlery....well, not so much, hope she just stays erect.

Mrs. Clinton, you’ve been livin’ hell to me
You’ve bothered us since nineteen ninety three
I’ve seen ‘em come and go and I’ve seen them cry
And long ago I stopped askin’ why

Mrs. Clinton, we hate every inch of you.
You’ve lied to us and have screwed us thru an’ thru.
And your scandals make us a broken weaker man;
All you voters why can’t you understand.

Mrs. Clinton, what good do you think you do?
Do you think we’ll be different when you’re through?
You bent our heart and mind and you may our soul,
And your lying ways turn our blood a little cold.

Mrs. Clinton, may you rot and burn in hell.
May your campaign fall and may we live to tell.
May all the world forget you ever stood.
And may all the world regret you did no good.

Mrs. Clinton, you’ve been livin’ hell to us.

Mrs. Clinton the souls from Benghazi cannot rest

Your email scandal is one of the best

You want to be rewarded for your deceit

No Presidency for you cause you will see defeat

Mrs Clinton it hard to listen to your cackles

I can’t wait till they haul you off in shackles

Your husband was a womanizing fool

He used you as his obstructionist tool
