When will the Presidential Debates be scheduled? Or...considering its 'Dump'

[PearliePoo2]

Will he refuse to participate at all? Could he just say, "Nope, not debating, don't need to, won't do it, I'm gonna just keep doing my rallies and I'll win and win big. You'll see...you'll be amazed!"

1. He can't refuse. I hope they have one every two weeks.

The more exposure he gets, the dumber he'll look.

8. He can't refuse? I hope you're correct but is it legally required?

There's never been a dangerous, lunatic like Dump before so tradition flies out the window.

12. I've never heard of a candidate not debating.

It would only bring accusations of hiding or being too scared.

2. He's psycho

He'll say something like "ya dont need debates trust me im the smartest"

He backed out of a gop debate, So what's to stop him from refusing a Presidential debate?

Maybe he'll just price his apprarance out if the ballpark for most networks LOL and say he's giving the proceeds to some charity.

[PearliePoo2]

11. A definite possibility!

He can price himself out of contention! 'Course, no charity will ever get within sniffing range of any real cash from him.

7. Is it true that

he really cannot refuse? I hope so because I am pinning a lot of hope on his self destruction there.

I only ask because I didn't think a candidate could refuse to rlease their tax return either.

9. I cant see him....

.....doing something as structured as these debates. I cant see him succeeding in a town hall setting. His insults won't go over well. I can't see how he will look good debating her.

10. Manafort/Putin won't allow it.

Can't ask those pesky questions about Tax returns and Russia.
