I agree. Trump understands the media better than they understand themselves. He almost always outsmarts them.
Interesting how we heard this past week that the FBI had the Hinter Biden laptop and didn’t share it during the impeachment, even though it would have helped Trump. Now today, the FBI verifies that the laptop is legitimate, and is not Russian disinfo. The Trump team must have war gamed this thing numerous times. Now, when Trump brings up the laptop at the debate and Biden responds that it’s been debunked, POTUS can respond, “Wrong, Joe. The FBI, which doesn’t exactly like me very much, has verified its legitimacy”.
The fact that the FBI held the computer and didn’t share it during the impeachment completely torpedoes the argument that this is Trump’s FBI and they can’t be trusted because they’re in the tank for Trump. Brilliant!
