I must agree. Trump thinks it doesn’t matter he can handle it. If he gets tough with a woman moderator days before it could cost him the election. Do not do this.
Most of the grief that Trump has gone through in his first term could have been avoided by Trump himself.
Like doing an interview with the Trump hating Carl Bernstein , who then turned round and used fake excerpts from that interview to spring a nasty October surprise on Trump.
There really is no need to just give his enemies weapons to use against him. Why make life harder for yourself than need be?
What you do is crush your enemies. You don't give them secret Oval Office interviews like he did with Bernstein.
