The Last Debate of the Scariest Clown

Everyone was surprised by the huge gaffs, the incoherence, the thin-skinned “I’m rubber you’re glue” level of Donald’s debate, but nobody should have been. Remember the lead up?
Donald Trump’s last performance: Here are the greatest debate moments from the craziest candidate ever
If there is any justice in this world, Wednesday night will be the last time we will ever see Donald Trump on the presidential debate stage. What’s remarkable about typing that sentence is that his presence on that stage and in this race seems just as surreal today as it did a little more than 14 months ago when the Republicans held their very first presidential debate of the 2016 cycle in Cleveland.
Political junkies gathered excitedly to see if this unlikely frontrunner would fall apart or make an irreversible gaffe before the whole country. We’re still doing that. Give the man his due: He’s a high-wire act who has managed to keep us all riveted for more than a year, just waiting for him to fall.
It’s tempting at this late date to be jaded and say that Trump’s unpredictability has always been overhyped. But it really wasn’t: This man has said and done things in presidential debates that nobody else has ever done. He has been completely unprepared, crude, arrogant and seemingly unaware that he has been making a fool of himself.
