Clinton / Trump Debate – 90 Minutes, No Commercials, No Breaks, No Excuses….
Posted on September 23, 2016 by sundance
• The first general-election debate of the 2016 presidential campaign takes place Monday, Sept. 26, at Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y. • The debate starts at 9:00pm EST. • The 90-minute debate will be divided into six 15-minute time segments. • The topics: ◊ America’s Direction, ◊ Achieving Prosperity and ◊ Securing America.
According to an upcoming WSJ report candidate Donald Trump held a 5 hour no-break preparatory murder-board debate session last weekend…
clinton-trump-debate(Via Drudge Exclusive) If presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton slips into a coughing fit or any other medical crisis during Monday’s high-stakes debate, she will have to power through, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned!
“There are no commercial breaks,” a commission source explains. “Period.”
Debate moderator Lester Holt does not have the authority to cut away from the stage during the epic 90-minute showdown. And microphone audio for either of the candidates is not to be manipulated.
Clinton has experienced severe coughing episodes throughout the election year. During a Labor Day campaign stop she suffered a 4-minute choking marathon.
Monday’s throwdown could top out at 100 million viewers, making it the biggest political event in history.
EDITOR’S NOTE: The presidential debate commission settled an early flashpoint when Clinton demanded a step-stool at the podium to add height to her 5’4″ frame. Campaign Chairman John Podesta expressed concern that Hillary would be dwarfed by 6’2″ Trump. The request was quickly rejected. The commission is allowing for a custom-made podium, which will accommodate the difference in stature.

I dont think I can stand 90 minutes of two podiums where one is a scene from the movie Idiocracy and the other a pure evil criminal.
We're so screwed.

I hope both candidates remember their Depends.
Personally, I plan to be watching an old movie. Thank God for Netflix.

I am working until 9:30 so DVR for me. I will be watching for Hitlery to short-circuit. That is, if they can get her to wake up from her medically-induced coma/rest so she can appear. Also hope they do not allow her to be tied to the podium to prevent collapsing. :silly:
