Scott Adam's gave a five minute interview on CNN. His major point was that Mr. Trump is a bit of a wild card, so he's allowed to be more outrageous and take risks, whereas Hillary's political experience makes us expect her to know lots of political details and to perform competently. He then said that Mr. Trump needs to only be "better than expected", whereas Hillary needs to be "perfect, and a little more".
You could see Brooke Baldwin had never considered it, and her facial expression suggested reluctant agreement.

Fake vid. Notice all the jump cuts in the interview? There are a ton of fake Soros vids on the net right now. If you go to Bloomberg you can watch the full interview, from what I hear he says Hillary will win the popular vote but the electoral vote will be close.

Chris Wallace is a globalist shill.
Raddatz might be drunk during so that could be fun.
Lester Holt just asks questions so i think he'll be ok.
Anderson Cooper will be a problem but since its the 2nd one, thats usually in a townhall-ish format, Trump is definitely better with people.
Let's not forget that Raddatz had Obama at her wedding, which should be considered a conflict of interest when she was selected as a VP debate moderator back in 2012.
ABC News chief global affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz said Monday evening that the fact President Barack Obama attended her wedding to her now ex-husband Julius Genachowski–Obama’s Federal Communications Commission chairman–“had nothing to do with what I did at the debate.”
Raddatz moderated the only vice presidential debate between Vice President Joe Biden and Wisconsin Republican Rep. Paul Ryan, the GOP vice presidential nominee, in the 2012 campaign. Neither she nor the Commission on Presidential Debates disclosed to the public that she was once married to an Obama cabinet official or that the president attended that wedding.
Raddatz’ denial of any wrongdoing came during a question and answer session after a National Press Club event Monday night at which she and two other 2012 campaign debate moderators discussed their views on the debate process. CBS News anchor Bob Schieffer and PBS anchor Jim Lehrer both also attended. CNN anchor Candy Crowley was scheduled to attend, but canceled at the last minute due to a family emergency.
Breitbart News asked Raddatz:
Do you think – there was obviously a little bit of a kerfuffle ahead of the vice presidential debate about the fact that the president attended your wedding to the FCC chairman. Do you think that that was handled right and given a second chance would you have done it a little differently?
Raddatz responded:
I didn’t do anything. I mean, I didn’t have to handle that. It was – and I’m really not going to comment about that. That was something that happened two days before the debate. It had been in The New York Times quite a while before that, I believe. I just got to put this out of my head. That had nothing to do with what I did at the debate. Nothing.
Raddatz was at least partially misleading with her answer. The New York Times did mention in a profile of her as a foreign correspondent–that ran in the “Fashion” section almost a full year before the debate she moderated–that Raddatz was once married to Genachowski. The Times did not disclose in that story that Obama himself attended that wedding between Raddatz and Genachowski. A search of the Times website did not yield other stories where that topic came up.
ABC News spokesman David Ford only admitted that the president attended Raddatz’ wedding while the network and Raddatz were under intense scrutiny ahead of the vice presidential debate.
ABC tried to kill the story–reported first by The Daily Caller’s Josh Peterson–by leaking statements to Politico, the Daily Beast, and the Huffington Post before Peterson even published a story. ABC’s statement called reporting on the deep personal ties Raddatz had to the president ahead a debate she was moderating “absurd.” The left-leaning Huffington Post called ABC’s tactics “unusual.”
Raddatz’ failure to disclose the conflict of interest appears to be a violation of the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics, a written body of rules by which journalists are supposed to abide. In the section of the ethics code that says journalists are to “Act Independently” a clause states that journalists must: “Disclose unavoidable conflicts.”
ABC News and the Commission on Presidential Debates both defended her, as did many mainstream reporters.
Raddatz’ performance as a debate moderator was widely panned by conservatives as unfair, including Ryan’s own campaign spokesman. When Ryan spokesman Michael Steel–who has since returned to being House Speaker John Boehner’s spokesman–was asked, “So you think she made it fair, would you say?”, he responded that: “I’m not sure I would say that.”

Concerning Murdoch: I think he eventually came around because he tweeted something like 'If Trump becomes the nominee, the Republican establishment would be stupid not to unify around him' during the primaries and I also think they had an official meeting.
Wallace doesn't bother me as much as say Glenn Beck.
The moderators don't really look *that* bad in general, except for Holt, he is a total pro Hillary shill. They will probably all be pro Hillary for the debates, similar to how Candy Crowly helped Obama and lied for him.
That is basically the precedent going forward, the Donald has to be practicing for that.
That debate list reads like an Anti-Trump All Star team, it's amazing. Only guy missing is George Stepinpoopulous, but I suppose he would be overkill. You better believe Chris Wallace will go after Trump tougher than Hillary, like the rest of them will.
On the other hand, it's a great opportunity for Trump. He'll be up against a Hillary/Moderator tag team which will become obvious to any viewer with half a brain, especially when it's three debates in a row. They risk overplaying their hand and confirming everything Trump has said about the rigged system, the establishment, and dishonest media in real time.
And of course it presents the chance for Trump to win the election right there and then if he can BTFO both Hillary and the Media at the same time. He already did this during the primaries, and threw in booing lobbyists and donors for good measure, so he has some experience. Even more excited for the debates now.
Trump is having a strong weekend right after a perfect week.
Live now
I want the campaign to release Trump diet and sleep schedule, HOLLY SHIT, this a 70 years old man giving speeches for hours standing day after day, press conferences, attacked from every side without stopping.
Even young men would not handle the amount of stress, and pressure, even something as simple as the voice would be showing sings of tiresome.
Yet, Trump is as strong or stronger than the day he launched his campaign.
How many calories is he taking every day?
How many calories is he burning every day?
How many hour is he sleeping?

We need datasheet on his routine.
Aspirin, KFC, steak and bacon. The man eats whatever he wants. He just has incredible drive and determination.
