    That’s the only way it’s a good idea. Otherwise, he’ll just keep interrupting her throughout the whole thing and she won’t be able to get a word in edgewise.

    Yes she’s a former prosecutor and thus used to argue for a living but that was a) a long time ago and b) in a highly regulated setting where there’s serious consequences for breaking decorum.

    In a “debate” on a for-profit yellow media outlet, he’s not going to be held in check by the moderator(s) or anyone else and even though most if not all of his blathering is going to be lies, he’s likely going to win by default for being “high energy” or whatever bullshit the corrupt pundit class comes up with to spin his lunacy and childish bullying as a show of strength.
