Mr. Trump isn't taking my calls at the moment, but if he did I would advise him that accepting the offer before knowing "the rules" laid down by the leftists was a mistake, and to use them as an excuse to back out "for cause" while he still can.
An absolute requirement would be that any debate be held in front of a live audience, to prevent "editing" later on. Or perhaps even editing "in-progress".
CNN should be a no-go from the get-go.
And an equal number of moderators, half picked by the left and the other half by Mr. Trump. If only one moderator, the two sides submit 5 names each and the winner be drawn from a hat.
Better yet, NO debates at all.
I won't be watching in any case, but I see this as being only detrimental to Mr. Trump's chances, with no "gains" to be made -- unless ol' white joe suffers a complete breakdown at the podium...
