Remember that all the "insults" he flings at her are in reality just about him? Not having a good grasp of basic empathy will do that.

He will confabulate anything to maintain the narrative in his head both that he is more prepared for the coming debate and that he won the last one. He really does think it - it's not show.

It's going to be interesting to see what excuses he makes for himself after Sunday especially considering this format is probably the least favorable to him of the three.

He patted himself on the back during the debate for not calling Clinton the c word. Then the next 3 days he was congratulating himself on not bringing up Bill's infidelity.

He thinks she's like him probably, and/or is underestimating her drive by a long shot. She's definitely being doing a lot of prep though; after how long she's been working for this, there's no way she's getting complacent now.

As people said, he was convinced they were guilty and has been calling for their deaths for decades. Literal decades. He is so pissed that they're not dead.

He bought an ad back in 1989, he was asked about it this week since the Central Park 5 were wrongly accused, convicted, and imprisoned (city paid out a settlement of close to $50 million).

It's the same stuff as always: Trump says or does something completely reprehensible and then double downs when it turns out that he's on the wrong side.

He took the advertisement out May 1, 1989. He's stood by it since and has commented on the case even recently, like after the settlement and whatnot.

He is adamant that they're guilty and deserve death and doesn't care what anyone, the courts included, say. He really, really wants those men dead.

Little things like this are what I love about this election. 2016 is forever going to be an example of what NOT to do when running a campaign. Trump is losing right now, it's only a month until the election, and yet he just continues to waste more of his limited time and energy on things like this. It makes zero tactical sense. Unless he somehow pulls a miracle out his rear end at the debate and/or Hillary does something insanely stupid, I think we're going to get a landslide.
