Trump Should Be Excited That Football Will Distract People From Debates



Donald Trump is making quite a stink over the debate schedule that he previously agreed to, but he should be very grateful that fewer people will be tuning in to watch him get destroyed by Hillary Clinton on live TV. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

They can watch it at their convenience sometime later. Video clips are available everywhere and the high and low points are endlessly discussed in the news following these events. So it hardly seems to matter.

We will all see and hear how poorly DT does no matter when the debates are scheduled. He better start taking elementary school Social Studies classes now so at least he can debate at a primary grade level although it will be a barely passing one if he studies hard--starting now.

Since he doesn't read and is overconfident with his own "really good brain" he probably won't study much, but will look for a tactic to turn the table on Hillary somehow. He is a conman, after all.

I can't think of a more efficient way for the MSM to help Trump keep his macho base insulated from reality
