What version of Trump are we on, anyway? Whichever it is, this one is apparently not going to wing his debates with Hillary Clinton, as he boasted of doing in the primaries. Trump began preparations Sunday, "with a meeting at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., according to a person briefed on the preparations, who was not authorized to speak publicly."
Roger Ailes, the former Fox News chairman who helped prepare George Bush to debate Michael Dukakis in the 1988 presidential race, is advising Mr. Trump as he begins to focus on the debate, scheduled for Sept. 26 at Hofstra University on Long Island. […]
As of now, Mr. Trump is not using a traditional lectern model to practice. He is instead using briefing binders and reviewing Mrs. Clinton’s past debate performances, the person said.
That should go well.
