Debate chatter on the M$M

It looks like tRump can lie tonight.
Be vague tonight.
And have zero policy details.

All that is okay it seems according to television.
The only criteria he needs to perform to win the debate is to "behave".

For Hillary it's that and so much more.

The bar is so low for him it's almost not there.

Clinton's bar is higher than she can jump because she is fighting the label of "crooked Hillary" and other slurs that are based on nothing at all.
