The debate. Do not attack trump. Attack his own words.

Trump has been like a broken record his entire campaign. A broken record of ideas that are crazy, stupid, unconstitutional , insane, foolish, out of touch with reality, not feasible, I think that covers it.

A couple of examples are, Take the oil from iraq. That is not feasible. That is not even reality. That shows trump does not have a clue. Trump is stupid.

Kill the families of terrorists. We just had a terrorist attack in new york city. Trump believes we should murder the parents and siblings
of the terrorist. It does not matter if they knew about it or not. No trial. No investigation. Kill them.

If trump is not done after this debate i fear for this nation.

She needs to appear strong and in control. She needs to present facts to counter trump's one-liners. She can use sarcasm, verbal 'slap-downs' but in no way can she allow herself to lose control. One brief outbreak and it will be the only thing the media will cover - they will make her out to be just a hysterical 'female'. She should be polite but not above interrupting trump (otherwise she won't be given the same time allowance as him).

He is very good at what he is doing, I hate to say.
Not that Hillary isn't, but they are playing two different 'games."

One game appeals to a human being's lower emotional instincts. Of the three principal 'parts' of human behavior, emotional, physical and intellectual, the emotional part reacts the quickest. It takes no effort.

Hillary appeals, to a great degree, to the intellectual part, the part that thinks about things.. The intellectual part is the slowest to react to something. it takes effort.


I don't know what the answer is.
