Trump on the Commission for Presidential Debates: "I have no respect for that group by the way, I'm done."

1. Promise? So Hillary gets the stage to herself for 90 minutes when she shows up, right?

2. Done with debates, Donald?

Or just done? You can concede anytime you like.

3. So

5. Hmmm. Maybe, but can he resist an audience that size?

One of his biographers suspected even losing the presidency might not hurt particularly because he would be the center of a great deal of attention. Also, some polls show what's interpreted as a "bump" for him from the last one, which he can interpret as great admiration.

[unblock]

7. He just wants ever bigger headlines and more eyeballs

If he became president, he would continue to do increasingly outrageous things to get headlines.

There is no moral compass stopping him from anything.

13. Yes, more power and admiration. And certainly

there would be serious problems with other nations, Congress, states crossing and sending him into rages. No moral compass, no decency, no ideology, no principles, no self discipline, no conscience.

The polls are incredibly volatile, Vladimir Putin is trying to help get Trump elected, and millions of Americans think we're in end times and Hillary and Putin are serving Satan.

As you say, I'll be glad when it's over. Please, please, please let Americans give the Democrates both houses of Congress and a mandate to accelerate the restoration of prosperity and stability.

6. I'm sure the feeling is mutual, Don.

8. He's so dumb

he just may sit the last one out.

[Angry Dragon]

9. Donald is going to take his hair and go home

[jcgoldie]

10. I hope he does sit it out

When you are getting thrashed by 8 or 9 points nationally and losing every swing state by ever larger margins something like a debate is the only chance you have to change the momentum. Of course that assumes you aren't a complete dumbass with no concept of policy and too arrogant to even try to learn.

[vadermike]

11. He

Probably figures he has nothing left to lose at this point he may be right Let him quit the debate He will tweet the whole time lol
