I had the same thought.

Like what do they do if he needs to be dragged off by the Secret Service?

than that dude, anyway.

He's like a Zen Buddhist cautionary tale of exactly how not to get distracted by the whirring, buzzing, ego fear and desire attachments in the region of thud.

Do they make the candidates go through some kind of security check/metal detector?

Call me cray-cray, but I see in my mind a scenario in which the Orange Shit Stain pulls out a gun to shoot HRC.

No joking - he's unhinged and furious. And he's 70. Yes, he's a narcissist, but he's also a sociopath, so it isn't beyond the realm of imagination that he could harm her. And with a gun or knife, within a foot of her, how could anyone stop him?

I know I sound , but I really have had this thought pop in my head. I just pray HRC and secret service has too and gives Trumpenstein a full pat down (and a cavity search to boot - dig all up in there!)

And he must be seeing that his name will soon be MUD. His empire is built on that name. All is ego in his world. He will be unbelievably desperate.
They need more than a moderator, on stage they need Secret Service.

At 70, his conman act has been revealed and I'm sure he's facing investigations that he thought he'd never have to face. His world is imploding.

I'm worried. Hopefully, secret service is too and will ensure everyone's safety.

Stranger things have happened in this election, so...

I don't think he'll resort to violence but he will invade her personal space. He is a bully and he can't help himself.
