I just thought about Trump coughing during the debate and how the world would react to that. It can't look good. So my thinking is that unless Trump is fully recovered and no coughs in days, he would not participate in a debate. He cannot edit out the cough and he knows how bad it looks if he coughs.
So I think it's unlikely that Trump will participate in the next debate. What do you think?

The VP debate becomes even more important.

But at least with his fake diagnosis he got the media off the disaster of his debate and the tax cheating exposure. Hes a master distractor.

You've got to wonder what he has next? I mean, really, how many fake aces can he really have up those sleeves/hospital gowns?

(9,136 posts)But if you are up to it, I want us to talk about who would be the best leader at this challenging time." for example. Trump would not be able to say no, unless he was real sick. Also, it could be done virtually without travelling to the studio.

He is not going to be anywhere near 100%, and Trump's ego won't let him risk looking weak.
