Debate Night Predictions

I've tried to include all the various scenarios from DU posts, plus some other potentialities:

17 votes, 0 passes \| Time left: Unlimited
	Trump is a no-show.
	0 (0%)
	Trump begins the debate, only to melt down and walk out.
	1 (6%)
	Trump finishes the debate, getting his ass handed to him by Biden.
	10 (59%)
	The debate is surprisingly normal, and consensus is Biden wins it.
	3 (18%)
	Trump outperforms ridiculously low expectations and is proclaimed the consensus winner.
	1 (6%)
	Security teargasses the stage and Trump is escorted out in shackles.
	1 (6%)
	Other (please explain)
	1 (6%)
	0 DU members did not wish to select any of the options provided.

The election was rigged by the lame stream media. That trumps greatness and leadership skills were not highlighted. That Biden was drunk. That the only thing we have to fear is MSNBC.

...removal from the scene, an earlier conclusion to the event, and/or other outcomes.

Many of us will be watching for sniffling, trembling, in addition to the typical babbling and gestures.

Biden wins in any event.

..when it will happen. But it WILL happen. Trump has to always be in control of interviews or debates. Without a live microphone to talk over Joe, he won't be able to function in his typical belligerent fashion.
