Now the crybaby president wants a town hall do-over

 President Trump is planning a dinner of verbal junk food on Wednesday.

After getting the smack laid down on him in the ratings after Thursday's town hall with NBC's Savannah Guthrie, and the resulting whining and crying from Fox Shmooze's Laura Ingraham, Spam Hannity, and Tabloid Carlson (last night), America's Oldest Baby is holding another town hall on Wednesday, right before his last scheduled debate with Joe Biden at Belmont University in Tennessee.


"WAAAAHHHHHH! I wanna do-over! WAAAHHHHH!"

Former Fox Shmoozer Eric Bolling, now the anchor of Sinclair Broadcasting's America This Week, will moderate what amounts to a twinkie munch buffet, because you and I know he's only going to make things easy for Trump, unlike Guthrie, who did what a responsible journalist (and in her case, a former lawyer) would do, and force the President's feet to the fire. Trump's pitbull-esque approach to the first debate threw moderator Chris Wallace off his game, which no one expected, but this is a case of Trump needing to salve his bruised ego.

This much we know is certain. Trump wants to control the debate narrative, and be the irresponsible man-child his base has fallen for. However, every time he's been handed an opportunity to redeem himself before undecided voters or supporters who've abandoned him, he's fumbled. The general public is all too aware of his self-first handling of COVID-19, which has been a disaster, especially with the virus resurgent in a number of states in the first few weeks of autumn.

Wednesday night will not tell us anything we don't already know, and the debate the next night will be more of the same bluster and lying from Trump.

Bear in mind, too, that Trump's behavior will reflect badly on Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett, as if it hadn't already. And we know what'll happen if Trump flops in the next debate......
