Hillary should begin the next debate by audibly asking Trump if he wants to swap microphones


It would get a big laugh.... even from him.... and get the town hall crowd on her side immediately.

However, even though I agree the crowd would laugh, I don't believe trump would laugh at all.
I think he would feel he was being made fun of and mocked. This guy has no sense of humor..none. He hates being laughed at more than anything. I'm trying to recall if I've ever seen him joking around or being funny unless it was at someone else's expense.
He's a dangerous, vindictive asshole who's motivated by revenge.

(Still..I would love to see Hillary push his button with the mic swap!)

just as he didn't like the jokes made at his expense at the White House Press Corps dinner, when President Obama eviscerated him.

He would be angry and defensive and, well, he'd be just where we want him at the beginning of the second debate. Go for it, Hillary!
