Do I want to watch the debate tonight - have been turning off Drumpfenfuhrer who is still

permeating the airwaves 24/7 - even progressive and public radio play way too much of him, way out of proportion to Hilary.

His is the language of the abuser and my psyche is saying "stop taking in anymore of this toxic shit." on't we know by now that every time he opens his mouth its going to be something crass, racist, sexist, rude, dishonest, self-aggrandizing or stupid?

On the other hand to see a strong woman standing up and talking back - that might be therapeutic.

Now more than ever - let's have a woman for a president. And cast this sad sorry man into the oblivion he deserves - looking forward to the day I have to see his ugly mug only on the occasional national enquirer while walking by at the supermarket.

To tell you the truth I am terrified about this debate. Because I know he will be vile, ugly, and vicious. He's like a cornered rat with nothing to lose. I have total faith in HRC though, I know HRC can handle him.

because what good was it going to do me to watch? I knew my mind wouldn't be changed, and I knew that no Trump supporter would change his (and I say "his" advisedly) so-called mind. I have not regretted this decision.

But tonight is different. The Republican party has cut Trump adrift; I'm betting nobody is working on him to try to keep calm, and I bet he's going to implode. I am mean-spirited enough to want to watch that happen.

I would agree with your "other hand"--watch to see Hillary get the best of him. So watch and enjoy.

A debate is not the same as a professionally polished ad. He will be out there all by his lonesome showing us how crappy he really is. No crowd of fans to prop him up.

I agree about Trump: ABUSIVE! TOXIC! To a lot of us!
