The former president’s apparent decision to skip the first debate is a major affront both to the Republican National Committee and to Fox News, which is hosting the event.
He’s too privileged and stupid to be scared. He’s certain he’ll get away with whatever he does regardless of what that is.
I agree with others saying this is a power move. By not going, he basically proves that many Republicans won’t watch which means less views which means Trump can say, without lying, that because he didn’t show the views were down.
Oh, I agree it’s a move. But the Republicans also offer something he craves. Legitimacy and attention. He doesn’t hold all the cards.
Lol, like he cares if any of his claims need to be true. He doesn’t know what is or isn’t true, not does he care. He says whatever suits his needs in the moment.
