Trump looks for lifeline in final presidential debate

It’s now or never for Donald Trump.

The Republican nominee must find some way to get traction in what could be an explosive presidential debate on Wednesday.

Trump now lags Hillary Clinton in the RealClearPolitics national polling average by about seven percentage points, a margin that suggests he is in danger of being routed on Nov. 8.
Data forecasting site FiveThirtyEight gives him only about a 14 percent chance of winning the White House.

That means Trump will have nothing to lose when he takes to the stage at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. “This may be the single nastiest debate of the cycle,” GOP strategist Matt Mackowiak predicted.

1. I'm wondering if there will be some kind of damaging data dump this time.

The Access Hollywood tape was released on the Friday night before a Sunday debate. The last debate is tomorrow – will something come out today?

2. Wouldn't be surprised if Melania's claim that ALL the women are liars will backfire

The same way it backfired on him after he totally denied doing anything inappropriate. She also said that all the WRITERS of negative articles were women who were lying about him.

3. I hope it does backfire...

It's disgusting that she excuses his behavior by calling it 'boy talk' and blaming it on Billy Bush.

5. Yeah, because we want a President that can be lead astray

by the mental giant that is Billy Bush.

7. When he goes nasty or

when he says something that is completely false and ridiculous (because you know he will) I'd love to here her retort be "That he is just spouting more boy talk".

8. I would not be surprised

to see Trump storm off the stage accusing Chris Wallace of rigging the debate against him.
