If Trump thinks the debates will be like the primaries, he's in for a shock.

Any other D-VA's wanna comment?

Trump is going to try to win by doing the only thing he knows how to do: being a complete ass.

This is why the American people love Trump and don't like that crooked Hillary. She hides behind teleprompters and everything is fake and staged with her. She has no enthusiasm or ability of connecting with people. No sane person would trust someone like that. Trump talks to people. He listens to people. And that's why he's going to win the debates because people will love him.

This is why the American people love Drumpf and don't like that crooked Hillary. She hides behind teleprompters and everything is fake and staged with her. She has no enthusiasm or ability of connecting with people. No sane person would trust someone like that. Drumpf talks to people. He listens to people. And that's why he's going to win the debates because people will love him.

I hope to God you're not really this dumb.

Trump has been using TelePrompters for months now.

You want to talk about "fake and staged" with Hillary? YOUR candidate's entire platform is one big rouse. He's already waffled on his most passionate positions.

"No sane person would trust someone like that..." even though he's considered less honest and trustworthy than she is according to polls.

You're as clueless as your candidate and party.

Trump doesn't have to use a teleprompter. He chooses to to make the RNC happy. And there's nothing about his platform that's a rouse. He said he's going to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it. Has that changed? He said he's gonna cut taxes that are killing American families and businesses. Has that  changed? He said he's gonna end all these free trade deals that crooked Hillary supported for years. Has that changed? No. No. No. You've got nothing to stand on. You're just upset because crooked Hillary has bigoted policies that are only going to further destroy our country just like Obama.

I'm inclined not to believe the Trump story based on the Romney Campaign's genius spinning of Mitt's debate prep in the lead up to the first 2012 debate... but this is Donald f-in Trump so who knows.

The only time Trump has actually sound semi-coherent is when he used a teleprompter. When he goes off-script it has backfired on him.

Also Trump is a con-artist and it is embarrassing (and hilarious) that people like you are buying his schtick.

When he uses a teleprompter is when his poll numbers started to decline. If you can even believe those misleading pollsters. He doesn't sound "semi-coherent" either. He just sounds like that to you because you're so used to hearing all these shiny fake politicians like crooked Hillary who rehearsed it a million times in front of some group. Trump speaks from the heart and the head without trying to neatly package them. He speaks like the average person. Sorry if you can't figure that out.

His polls numbers go down when he makes stupid comments off-script and that is a fact.

And lol at the notion Trump speaks from the heart and talks like an average person. Dude is a con artist and is basically running a scam campaign.

-Raised rent on Trump Towers after donors started footing the bill
-Hasn't spent any money on GOTV operation and instead putting money into shady marketing companies that he and his family benefit from
-Used campaign donations to buy 55, 000 copies of his own book.

Donald Trump is literally the definition of that LBJ quote from the 1960s

I feel sorry for these people who are so disconnected from basic reality. I knowledge I'm in a minority of people who genuinely like Clinton, but the delusion of the Trumpeteers is actually kind of sad.

I'm usually a nice and even-tempered person but these people will likely end driving me to a record number of death points.

Indeed.

It also makes me doubt the virtues of democracy in general, which I know is terrible.

Trump doesn't have to use a teleprompter. He chooses to to make the RNC happy.

And it "makes the RNC happy" because Trump is a bumbling, incoherent buffoon who sinks in the polls everytime he goes off-script and who'd never complete a spoken sentence without going on 12 different tangents in the absence of a teleprompter.

But of course, Trump doesn't need to use teleprompters, cue cards or anything else. It's not like the dude's been relying on them for years due to his now-canceled, pretend-job-hiring show.
