Robert De Niro on The Don

Be interesting to see how he responds, we know he will

Just a couple of thoughts

Trump clearly in some hot water right now & with the debate tonight, what are the chances of him being under pressure early on, followed by him completely losing it towards the end (him knowing it's over)

Also the comments he has made, what % of vote is he to lose? Do his comments affect a huge proportion or are the women (that are voting for him) just see this as banter?

[DaveShoelace]

I still really don't think this changes anything at all for Trump, to some extent it feels like the media is trying to force the 'Trump is finished' narrative. Is anyone really surprised with what he said? He has said so many worse things on stage. If you were voting for him on Thursday you are still voting for him today. And a well timed 'what I did was bad but Bill Clinton is a rapist' comment tonight might embolden Republicans against Hillary again.

Only problem I see for him is if the GOP literally force him out, which looks possible.

Just looked on his Twitter page and he is really going for it with the Bill rape stuff, tonight will be insane.

Yh it looks like tonight is going to get very personal very quickly. Uncomfortable reading Trump's twitter at the moment.

For someone who didn't care one iota about politics at the time when Clinton was in power, what actually went on and is all this as bad as it's being made out to be?

Its been a tough year for it, but I really really want to keep some faith in humanity. That even if their husbands/fathers/brothers are staunch Trump supporters, they are lifelong republican voters and they tell the pollsters that they are voting for Trump, in the privacy of the polling booth millions of women just can't bring themselves to vote for the guy that brags about sexual assaults.

US politics is funny Trump represents a party that large swathes now don't  support him. Ohh wait that's not so nuts, we have Jeremy Corbyn here!!!!

Seriously though, how does he present himself as a credible world leader now in the company of the likes of Theresa May or Angela Merkel. Come on Donald your time has to be up this time, you have alienated yourself from half the US population.

My only worry is Hilary Clinton doesn't have the debating skills to stick the knife into Trump and finish him off, or does she?

Clinton is a stone cold killer, and the last thing I'd be worried about, is her sticking the knife into someone

I have the reverse vision of what will happen, I think there will be a huge bunch of people who clam not to support Trump publicly but will vote for him when the curtains shut.

Clinton has the skills for sure, she proved that last time out, she'll have some zingers tonight. It all depends how convincing/brutal Trump can be with the Bill sexual assault claims that are inevitably coming tonight.

You think Clinton will do well tonight? The last one in my eyes saw no real winner. They are exact opposites trump = aggressive, no depth. Clinton = depth, no aggression. I can see the same tonight & Clinton ending with "women, is this who you are voting for? Vote for me instead"

Got Fox News on, and Trump is holding a press conference with Bill's accusers.

Shouldn't he be getting ready for a debate?

[MintTrav]

Melania and Ivanka seemed incredibly nervous as the camera flipped between them, Bill/Chelsea and Donald Jr/Eric in the wait for the start.

I thought both Hillary and Donald looked very tired answering the first question. Just an initial impression - might be wrong.
