The second presidential debate takes place this Sunday night (October 9), and thanks to a leaked tape involving Donald Trump talking quite vulgarly about women, it promises to be another three-ring circus.
Unlike the first debate, this go-round will take the form of a town hall meeting, with half the questions coming from citizens and half from the moderator.
Which means all those questions NBC’s Lester Holt, who moderated the first debate, avoided, will most likely be asked.
So expect to hear about Trump’s tape, as well as many of his other highly-offensive remarks, along with Clinton’s involvement in Benghazi and her security lapses.
And expect to hear a lot of yelling and name-calling too.
For those who haven’t heard, the latest scandal involves the surfacing of a tape from 11-years ago, where Trump, who had just married third wife Melania, is heard telling current NBC Today correspondent Billy Bush (who was with Access Hollywood at the time), how he tried to bed Nancy O’Dell and got rejected.
He also makes lewd remarks about taking what you want from famous women- and how they don’t mind when you do.
Trump issued an apology afterwards- something he seems to be getting quite good at.
Needless to say, at this point, anything controversial that comes from either candidate is less than surprising.
