The problem with the Trump wins is that there were so many people on the stage Trump only had a few minutes to speak. There was no in depth conversation so Trump could get away with some good one liners and some canned answers. Why didn't Trump debate Cruz one on one? Once Rubio was gone and there were only three candidates left Trump wanted no part of the debates.

With Hillary it will be one on one (unless Johnson makes a big leap and can get in on it) so Trump will have to expand on his typical answers or he will come off like he doesn't know what he doing. That said, I will admit Trump has come a long way in the last few months so he could do well.

I still think the debates will play a major role in this election. Trump still has a huge unfavorability rating and he will need to change some of those people's minds. The debates are where he can do that. He could also fall flat on his face.
