tbh I don't know how any of his handlers could feel comfortable with Trump debating...

...he's in a bad spot. He's making even less sense than normal. He can barely talk without his voice going hoarse and having to mute the phone to cough. He does not sound well at all. It's not just the sickness of his voice, either. It's the sickness of his mind. He said Joe Biden was the one who took money from the wife of the mayor of Russia. He's staggering through his remarks with Hannity, despite Hannity basically holding his hand. This is not good. He's very sick.

This is not normal. He isn't mentally well at all - and that's on top of being physically sick. I would be mortified if I was one of the Trump kids.

You've got to wonder if they want it to end so they can go back to the private sector?

I guess an intervention but Ivanka opposed it and she seems to be totally behind whatever Trump is doing.

I think Ivanka is out of touch and most like Trump in that she only cares about her personal profits and the optics.

They rely on him so they promote him. Yes men all around. He makes them fight for his entertainment.

to mask all the symptoms and went to work because I felt great! That lasted for a few days and then I got really sick. The doc said no talking for a week or I could damage my voice permanently and I LOVE to talk. I think Twitler’s Doc is giving him all the meds he asks for. Enough steroids and he’ll be good to go....til he’s not.

I have to say my favorite was from this morning talking about Sen. Tom Tillis wearing a mask. “Mr. Mask we call him”.
