Trump says NFL complains about Clinton rigging debates, NFL says no

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said the National Football League has complained to him about the debate schedule in a letter, and claimed that Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton and other Democrats "are trying to rig" the fall debates by scheduling two of the events opposite NFL games.  

 

For their part, the NFL and the Commission on Presidential Debates on Saturday rejected both of Trump's assertions.

 

A spokesman for the NFL said the football league did not send such a letter to Trump. Additionally, the independent, nonpartisan commission said that no political party or campaign was consulted when the dates were selected last year.
