  1. Watching it with my Mum and Dad tonight from Kelowna, BC. Homemade margaritas for my Mum, Sam Adams beer for my Dad.
    Go Trump! Most important election *ever*.

  2. It has been noted that 100 million people might watch the debate.
    I figure about 500 million if Europe is able to pick up the satellite view.
    Everyone will be listening to Trump and watching to see if Hillary stumbles, falls, or starts coughing.
    They gave her a ten inch stand for the podium and if she has a short-circuit, steps back with a massive hand gesture, it will be one hell of a fall.
    Will they pull away for a commercial or watch her try to get up, the suspense is just awful.

    go to 1:15 minutes.
    Bring me a 20 ounce coke and some chocolate sunflower seeds.

  3. Come one come all
    Welcome to the world’s greatest entertainment since the fall of Rome
    Life, death
    Victims, voyeurs
    The best of society
    The lowest of plebeians
    And to keep it all extremely interesting, today’s patrons
    Could very easily be tomorrow’s entertainment

  4. Debate = shiny thing for the rubes.
    I’d be watching the local cemetery. The Dems apparently have necromancers capable of getting the undead to vote for Hillary. She’s got the zombies, vampires and shoggoths all locked in, baby.

  6. Any info on the issue of Hillary’s ear-bud/radio receiver that she hides in her ear?
    Trump was trying to get info on whether it is allowed and was being stonewalled by the folks running the ebate.
    Please post any news here. I can hardly believe she would be allowed to use it/them but she’s a Democ-Rat …they are untouchable.

  8. The pre-game show has been going on for a couple of months now!
    I reckon Trump’s approach should be to ignore ‘illary and just talk to the American people.
    ‘illary has to attack as she is losing, she will appear like an attack bitch while Trump can be statesman-like by addressing the American people and their concerns.
    Her side will consider it an achievement if she can go the full 90 minutes. Watch for low blows from the immoderator.
    Much spin to come 🙂 Unfortunately I usually go to bed at 9PM as I arise 5AM.

  9. I expect the chicanery to occur in the Electoral College – kind of like Super-Delegates. I never seen a vote so crucial to the ruling class that they will overtly cheat, except Brexit.

  10. So the media thinks Donald will implode without a TelePrompTer – isn’t there about 17 people who thought that ?

  13. The Queen is too smart and experienced for Trump! She is certainly more experienced military-wise. She was ducking sniper fire in Bosnia! Trump has never done that!

  14. Not an American so really don’t have a grasp on the pulse of the nation.
    However, if the American people view the candidates the same way commenters on SDA do, Hillary wins this election in a landslide.
    Expectations here are so low for Hillary that all she has to do is make it through the night still breathing and she will be considered the winner.
    Just like Trudeau last November. He was just a suit with nice hair. Once he publicly put together a coherent sentence he exceeded the expectations the conservatives had set.

  15. You’re onto something there.
    Those Romans knew how to put on a spectacle.
    ‘mericans* don’t want to be left behind Nero and others that chopped heads off and watched with delight.
    *’mericans – the ruling class.

  17. In past debates, the participants were not able to bring crib notes… I don’t see how an ear piece will be allowed.
    cheers

  18. That’s ridiculous. He frequently operates without a teleprompter. I am debating about watching. I am not sure I can rake 90 minutes of Hillary — or 90 minutes of half Hillary.

  20. Of course it should not be allowed. It’s called cheating,but since the media server all in her corner, I think everyone is too scared to call her on it.

  22. “I think everyone is too scared to call her on it.”
    Trump is scared of Hillary? How is he, as president, going to stand up against the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, Mexicans if he’s scared of a phlegm infested troll?

  23. Have to go to a meeting. Thank the techies for PVR. For extra pain I am taping the CNN after party analysis.
    Trump has to land a couple of shots but maintain calm between them. It will hype Hillary out of her tree not knowing when they will come. Having the ear bud should be a gas as her team is running around in confusion already. I suspect the Russians will interfere with the transmission anyways.
    Both these camps have known this date for months and will surely have some well planned ‘moments’. Does the Trumpster level new charges of ‘lying’ or incompetence? I suspect so.

  24. They will have pulled Illary out of the bariatric chamber by the cankles by now and given her a transfusion of baby’s blood.
    I hope Trump brings an unlit cigar…and oh yes…a cough drop for her if need be.

  25. You assume Killary Lives.
    I am more in mind of an aged Max Headroom.
    The android known as HRC, has been malfunctioning in public..again.

  26. You learn a lot here, I never knew that Justin Trudeau put together a coherent sentence.
    Let’s hope that Trump comes up with a coherent sentence for Obama and Clinton.

  27. Trump took the stage against upwards of nine or so professional pols during the primaries, and came out okay.
    Shrillary had a difficult time debating against a unknown Independent commie. If her voice gets all shouty, and as stiff as she was on “Between Two Ferns”, she’s done for.
    No. Freakin’. Contest.
    The talking head ringleaders “moderating” don’t want to get Candy Crowley’d so they might actually play fair.
    I’ll be interested in watching if she starts swaying while standing upon the little step stool situated bhind her raised podium. Grabbing the edges of the lectern. How many gulps of water she chugs, in between spitting into the water glass chunks of phlegm/lung.
    Should anything health-wise happen to Shrillery during the debates, it’s a toss-up for me as to whether Trump should pat her on the back to get her over the coughing fit or just let her flail about like a tangled Howdy Doody.
    Hey, time to get the popcorn ready.

  28. Hillary’s latest debate talking over point: ISIS is praying for a Trump victory.
    Trump: when I’m president they’ll be praying for their lives.
    There is zero doubt Hillary will attempt to derail Trump by attacking and talking over him at every opportunity, in classic projection, to bully the bully.
    This worked well for our putz in chief here, countering a weary Harper and pop press with constant interruptions, quips and comments.
    Cabin boy got away with it here; she’ll try it there, count on it. She will have to control every aspect of the debate to win.
    I doubt Trump or the moderator will let her. Her shining star is not so bright anymore, except for the most hard core partisans.
    Besides, Trump gets better ratings.
    It will not be easy though, to simply attack Hillary on her record. No doubt she has all kinds of zingers for the university crowd to gorge on.
    As for her record. Old news. who cares, she’ll say; until Trump launches his vision in contrast with her confused message and stiff staccato.
    It’s up to the moderator. With the stench of Candy Crowley still in everyone’s nostrils, expect at least a somewhat fair performance.
    Donald has delivered in these types of situations most of his life. Unless he is surprised somehow, expect a strong performance.
    Hillary will give her best, and worst; but I think she knows she better be “nice.” If that caricature from Las Vegas shows up, she is political toast.

  30. I have very high expectations for Trump and I am confident that he will not let us down …
    Trump will save America … Trump is awesome!

  31. All Democrats are asking is that tonight’s debate moderator fulfill his basic journalistic duty of serving as a human shield for Hillary! What’s wrong with that?!

  33. Trump should go over to shake her hand and pull her ear bud out. What about her ear rings? Could they be ear buds?

  40. “I’ll release my tax returns when she releases her e-mails…” Good one, Trump!

  43. Aaaaaaaaand the 2nd ATTACK question (really a statement) ATTACKS Trump implying that he is a racist … what a sham of a moderator

  45. They should make the debaters solve Math problems and Word Problems live, on Air, to earn talking minutes. They could start by answering questions from “Are you smarter than a fifth grader”.

  46. The press will do all they can to sabotage Trump. From extending Hillary’s time to avoiding asking questions. Hillary will not stop lying the whole time

  49. Aaaaaaaand the 3rd ATTACK question is (again) aimed at Trump over the “birther” issue … The leftist media is in full panic over a Trump presidency. Including Lester Holt
