The buildup is epic on browncafe! Life alert commercials at intermission. Where is Howard cosell when you need him. We're live at the mistake on the lake.

"...the debate could have several significant contextual differences from 2016, chiefly the fact that outside of press conferences and a few fairly soft interviews, Trump has not had personally faced a sustained public challenge of his record over the last four years.

"Trump only has his rants, his rallies and his press conferences" to draw on, Reines said. Of contentious exchanges with reporters, "hardly any of it is a debate," and Trump "often ends press conferences in the middle of a question by walking out of the room."

Nah, he's only been falsely accused of treason and corruption relentlessly for four years.

"Trump will be reluctant to talk about Russian bounties, lack of a health care alternative and his disastrous COVID response," she predicted. "Oh, and of course, taxes. He will stick to his audit lie."

"There's no preparing him and, to be frank, he doesn't have top brass, top talent available to prep him anyway," she said. "We can already see they have nothing. They're out on social media tweeting lazy memes and questions like, 'Where's Hunter?' Look: No one cares about Hunter."

"And it's foolish, anyway, to open up that door to discussion of Ivanka's Chinese trademarks, Jared's inability to obtain security clearances, the Trump Organization's foreign entanglements and on and on," she said.

Dumb donald, of course, notoriously doesn't care about facts. Debate rules should require truth telling, and include methods for the moderators to call out outrageous violations. But real-time fact-checking has been ruled out by the debate organizers .

That's nice.
