Tonight, the third presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will be held at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. (For ImmigrationProf posts on the first two debates, click here and here.). As previously announced, the topics selected for the debate include Immigration, the Suprreme Court and "fitness to be President." Fox News host and moderator Chris Wallace selected the topics for the debate.

To add to the pre-debate hype, Trump for some unknown reason earlier in the week challenged Clinton to take a drug test prior to the debate. Some might wonder what fuels Trump's vitriol, late night tweets, pacing menacingly around during the town hall, etc.

The debate will be organized into six 15-minute segments covering the debate topics. Both Clinton and Trump will have two minutes to respond to a question and then another chance to respond to their opponent. The six discussion topics will be

1. Immigration

2. Entitlements and debt

3. The Supreme Court

4. The economy

5. Foreign policy

6. Each candidate's fitness to serve as president. One could have expected Trump's recent extremely controversial comments about women to come up in this part of the debate.

Stay tuned for a recap of the debate.
