Time: “It’s been more than eight years since Trump first set foot on a debate stage as a presidential candidate. Through the slog of the 2016 primary, to one-on-one matchups with a former Secretary of State and a former Vice President, Trump’s behavior has veered from playful and rakish to angry and unhinged. But the general throughline—beyond the perpetual lying—has been his inclination to retreat to bullying whenever he feels even remotely threatened.”
“This is the Trump that uses his precious little debate time to call Hillary Clinton ‘a nasty woman,’ and ‘the devil,’ or belittle Joe Biden with jabs like ‘you graduated either the lowest or almost the lowest in your class.'”
“And it’s the Trump we are likely to see at least glimpses of on Thursday.”
