The upcoming debate rules

Since the candidates bargain for debate rules What do you think the donnie side will request? A few I can think of.

Not allowable

1. No questions involving geography. This will include the anchors may not use any reference to or question related to cities, states, nation or which planet we are on.

2. No questions that involve any heads of state, governors, mayor or any other public official.

3. No questions or references to any other brand of terrorism unless it is ISIS/radical Islamic terrorism. And those will be limited questions will be limited to ask can you alone beat them.

4. No questions involving history, politics, conspiracy theories unless it has been confirmed by the National inquirer.

Allowable

1. Questions written out and received to our offices at least 3 weeks in advance of the debate to follow a third grade comprehension level.

2. Questions as to how yuuuge will it be.

3 Questions as to how great it will be.

Any others they would want?

I actually think declining participation would be smart for Trump or for Clinton.
