Donald Trump made the baseless accusation that the Hillary Clinton campaign was plotting to schedule two of three presidential debates on nights with NFL football games in order to limit viewership. The dates were set by the bipartisan Commission on Presidential Debates long before either Trump or Clinton secured their parties’ presidential nominations, and before the National Football League even announced its 2016 schedule.
Trump got the ball rolling with a July 29 tweet that began, “As usual, Hillary & the Dems are trying to rig the debates so 2 are up against major NFL games … Unacceptable!”
In an interview with ABC News on July 29, which aired on ABC’s “This Week” on July 31, Trump was asked by host George Stephanopoulos about that debate schedule
