“I know who I am, and it got me here,” Mr. Trump said, boasting of success in his 11 primary debate appearances and in capturing the Republican nomination over veteran politicians and polished debaters. “I don’t want to present a false front. I mean, it’s possible we’ll do a mock debate, but I don’t see a real need.”
Frankly, it wouldn’t do any good. It’s much too late for him to actually learn what he needs to learn so why bother? And with expectations so low for him he’s likely to be seen as a winner if he simply manages to resist talking about his penis. I have every expectation that Trump will be hailed by the press as being sober and thoughtful and magically transformed on the morning after the debate.
Recall this:
Last night, the most crucial of her political career, Palin managed to come out of a rocky couple of weeks—marked by stumbling interviews with CBS’s Katie Couric—with a credible, confident, aphorism-peppered debate performance that harkened back to her bravura acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention.
You can be sure the old “over-prepared” stick will be given the debate “on points” but she will not perform up to expectations. I may just tweet the reaction in advance and take the night off.
