I think the smart move for Hillary tonight is to not reference the latest Trump blunder.

Wall to Wall Trump "the sexual predator" coverage today, everyone knows about it, and the talking heads are doing there job getting it out there. He is severely damaged by this, there are calls for him to step down even from the Repub side.
She does not need to go there, she can be seen as rising above it, presidential if you will.
My two cents.

1. i think

she will have to talk about it .. its the first question at the debate.. however i trust her and the campaign team .. she will not dwell on it and will be on point .. Let Donald melt down

[RandySF]

2. It's reportedly the first question to come up tonight.

[stone space]

3. Not an option. She's getting the first question, and that's the question.

[emulatorloo]

4. She will have to address it, and she will do so with her usual aplomb and insight

[lunatica]

6. I wouldn't dream of giving Hillary advice on how to debate

[erpowers]

7. I Agree

As much as possible she should just leave it along and talk about her ideas to fix the country.

[Daemonaquila]

8. Doesn't matter what anyone thinks.

It's reportedly the 1st question, and Hillary goes first. Even if that changes, it WILL be in the lineup, and she WILL have to address it brutally. And she will.

9. She will be asked about it, and will respond with something like the entire campaign of Mr Trump

has been based on a platform of racism and sexism

That is not worthy of someone running for President of the United Stated

I will be a President for all people, and work to unite people, not divide them

11. Since the topic will be brought up...

Hillary should directly call him out and tell him to his face what a rapey piece of subhuman slime he is. Politely, of course.

[Nye Bevan]

12. Keep it very short and classy.

I fully agree, stay above it all.

[MrScorpio]

13. The smart move is to trigger Trump

She's very good at laying traps for him to fall into.

I'm sure that someone in the audience will bring it up first. She can simply cite it as another sign of his unfitness for office.

He'll take it from there.

[BlueWarrior]

14. Trump is a sinking ship and will hit the bottom of the ocean, even without Hillary's help

[LisaL]

15. My understanding, she will be asked about it. She can't not answer, obviously.

[world wide wally]

16. She should just say it sucks, but she will defer to let the public and Melania make their own

decisions about the matter, just as she wished when she was the victim

[yortsed snacilbuper]

17. Less,

is more.
