    Word on the street is that Trump doesn't want to debate so it may not happen.

    When is the last time when there was no debate?

    So you have no proof but still insist on making another Trump thread. I'm starting to think OP is a Hillary shill.

    No debate=loss. All clinton has to do is show up and do a town hall then.

    Trump might debate, Trump might not debate. The only certainty is that you will defend Trump no matter what he does. That is the definition of being a shill.

    Here's the proof you need Legume

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">As usual, Hillary &amp; the Dems are trying to rig the debates so 2 are up against major NFL games. Same as last time w/ Bernie. Unacceptable!</p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/759222916387069952">July 30, 2016</a></blockquote>
    <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    The debates were set a year ago, but of course, Trump has started a narrative claiming that they are "rigged."

    Why?

    Well, because the Democrats are corrupt! Also, this is the way he can force Stein/Johnson to also appear on the debates even thought they don't have the 15% polling to be eligible to do so. Multiperson works in his favor because Stein will gang up on Hillary.

    So Trump wants the debates to be held at a time frame that is not against a major sporting event so it can be seen by so many people. This is the furthest thing from not wanting to debate.

    Then why blame the Democrats? This is classic Trump. Take a fact, twist it into a half-truth, shroud it in misinformation and deliver it with petulance

    Trump certainly didn't mind trying to compete with the NFL when he owned the NJ Generals, so why now?

    Can you blame him right now? Not a lot of people trust the DNC and they did choose the democratic debates and purposely placed in a time frame and a date when less amount of people would watch. Everyone knows Hillary is not a great debater and the less amount of people the better.

    Hillary possessing nuanced knowledge on day to day governance and the legislative process is all she needs to humiliate Trump's "BELIEVE ME!" go to answer when asked for specifics. Nuance is exemplified in hour long one on one debates. It's going to to be painfully apparent to you how little knowledge Trump has on domestic and foreign policy with these debates. The spotlight on nuanced policy rhetoric is what these one on one presidential debates are for.

    All Trump has to do is bring up Hillary's bad judgment as secretary of state and expose her in front of millions of people. Unlike Bernie, Trump will take the gloves off and will be brutal.

    I'm 100% certain, this will be Trump's go-to point literally anytime he gets cornered and exposed.

    It will be pathetic and I hope Hillary gives him the Christie-Rubio treatment

    Quoted for proof but your reputation for chickening out on bets is well known.
