He's wrong. The debate schedule was decided over a year ago by independent debate commission. Metric System Jul 2016 #4

He really stepped in it this time, then, didn't he? How can he spin his ignorance of the schedule? randome Jul 2016 #10
It just gets added to the pile with all the other things he's ignorant about. Metric System Jul 2016 #12

But I hope he doesn't chicken out-- I've been looking forward to the debates ever since he became the puke nominee.

Trump totally lacks the ability to see his own weaknesses; he thinks he's smarter than everybody else.

Same as the last time. Who's running THESE debates? Not DWS, I suppose.
Of course he won't be able to address substantive issues.

When Bush Sr. refused to debate people showed up to his rallies in chicken suits.

Maybe Trump can get the same treatment.
