It is a knee-jerk reaction to blame Trump for not slamming Clinton on e mails, Benghazi, sniper fire in Bosnia, etc.... .
For the few but important voters who might be swayed by debates, and to use an NFL analogy, this is the preseason. You don't play your starters and show your best plays when it doesn't count.
And.... Trump is rising in the polls by running against Obama, so why change a winning strategy?
