Hillary Clinton is preparing for two different foes in Mondays presidential debate: an on-message, disciplined Donald Trump and a freewheeling, more provocative Donald Trump, the Wall Street Journal reports.
The Democratic nominee has cleared her schedule on multiple days to test arguments and practice for her first 90-minute matchup with the GOP nominee. This week, she has convened a small group of top advisers to run through potential questions and help her anticipate an assortment of scenarios.
In contrast, Mr. Trump has played down the value of doing dry runs and warned of the perils of over-preparation.

What if his supporters go full "Idiocracy" or "Jerry Springer"?

just by virtue of Trump being a candidate

They'll shut it down if it starts happening, or use production techniques to keep it off TV.

It's pretty obvious he's going to memorize a handful of "zingers" for each of the topics outlined. That's a lot of work for someone like him.
