Mark Cuban will sit in front row at Monday's debate

The Hillary campaign gave him the best seat in the building. The only thing that would be better is if Elizabeth Warren was on the other side. She clearly gets under his skin.

Just got a front row seat to watch @HillaryClinton overwhelm @realDonaldTrump at the "Humbling at Hofstra" on Monday. It Is On !

Maybe Cuban will hold up the $10 million check that he offered to give Trump if he would agree to meet with him and answer his questions about his proposed policies.

And enjoy it. I'm more productive in the mornings and my irregular sleep habits (like the reason for posting now) allow me to sleep in on days when I can use it. I don't mind working through the evening at all! Does your shift take you right through the night?

All along, I've been looking forward to Monday night. The country will get to see a study in contrasts between a professional and a buffoon.

My hope has been that Hillary Clinton will needle Donald Trump little by little getting him more and more agitated ultimately provoking him into one of his tirades. We've all seen that he is so insecure and how he's behaved when anyone has criticized him. It would be beautiful if she were able to prod him into a meltdown.

A very good friend told me that he's so nervous about the debates that he doesn't know if he can watch. As for myself, I can't wait!

Don the Con is so easily set off. It would be remarkable if he maintained his composure for long. How long until the censors have to take action? I'm guessing by the 20 minute mark or so.

Mostly because don the con HATES anyone who is richer than he is - Bloomberg could buy and sell donnie 4 or 5 times.

Drumpf is a tender fellow, so it's expert-level trolling move to have Cuban in the front row.
