Another topic sure to be brought up tonight: Trump’s tax returns, some of which were obtained by the New York Times.
The Times reported Sunday that Trump paid only $750 in federal income taxes in 2016, the year he won the presidency.

The debate will have six 15-minute segments. It will run for 90 minutes, with no breaks for commercials. There will be no opening statements, and the first question will go to Trump.
Moderator Chris Wallace of Fox News said he’s hoping to let the debate flow. He isn’t expected to factcheck either candidate – it would be a mammoth, time-consuming task – and has said he will strive to be as “invisible as possible”.
