Yup, it looks like that's exactly what his strategy will be:

We thought the first debate was nasty? I think tonight is gonna be the lowest of the low when it comes to Trump. I predict this strategy will backfire on him spectacularly. Hillary is too smart and experienced to get sucked into an argument about her husband's sexual history. She'll simply deflect his attacks and try and steer the conversation towards the actual issues and her policies. It worked like a charm in the first debate, and it'll work for her tonight. All she needs to do is stay on message as much as she can, counter-punch when she sees an opening, and just let Trump hang himself.

The problem with Trump using this strategy is that he has zero evidence that Hillary intimidated these women. Secondly, and more importantly, Bill Clinton isn't running for president. But at this point it's all Trump has left, so he's gonna sling as much mud as he can and see if anything sticks. This is his hail mary. The election is essentially over already, but if Hillary wins tonight, that'll definitely be the knock-out.
