I strongly suspect that Trump could try to find an excuse to avoid debating Hillary.

In a one on one debate, where substantive answers are expected and demanded by the moderators, he'd be complete toast.

Look for Trump to find some reason to bail. Past is prologue.

What we know is at this moment Trump's odds of becoming president are higher than hers. That could change in the next couple days, and again in the next 10 days or so. We'll see.

It would be pretty stupid to count him out.

There are no Putin loving apologists - like Donald Trump - in the pentagon, BFG! :)

Russian government bodies
have been hit by a "professional" cyber attack, according to the country's intelligence service, which said the attack targeted state organizations and defense companies, as well as Russia's "critically important infrastructures". The agency told the BBC that the powerful malware "allowed those responsible to switch on cameras and microphones within the computer, take screenshots and track what was being typed by monitoring keyboard strokes."

ABC News reports that the NSA "is likely 'hacking back' Russia's government-linked cyber-espionage teams "to see once and for all if they're responsible for the massive breach at the Democratic National Committee, according to three former senior intelligence officials... Robert Joyce, chief of the NSA's shadowy Tailored Access Operations, declined to comment on the DNC hack specifically, but said in general that the NSA has technical capabilities and legal authorities that allow the agency to 'hack back' suspected hacking groups, infiltrating their systems to gather intelligence about their operations in the wake of a cyber attack... In some past unrelated cases...NSA hackers have been able to watch from the inside as malicious actors conduct their operations in real time."
