Now the asswipe is crying that the debate network has given Harris a copy of the questions they’re going to ask. He really is running scared. He’s also selling sneakers with “fight fight fight” across the sides (referring to the assassination attempt. [Adam Kinzinger was on Jimmy Kimmel.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhCqiccWBXY) A very interesting interview that included him talking about Trump’s offensive odor. Kinzinger attended several meetings at the White House and said the odor was strong and a nasty combination of “armpits, ketchup, makeup and a little butt”. ---

I don’t watch Jimmy Kimmel so thank you for linking that. I’m pretty impressed by Kinzinger. He gave a great speech at the DNC, and this was also excellent. I know nothing about his politics other than he’s a Republican, but I’d listen to him put forth his ideas. ---

Donald Trump, staying classy: > [@](#): > > WASHINGTON — Former President [Donald Trump](https://www.huffpost.com/news/topic/donald-trump) held a press conference on Friday that was supposed to be about him appealing a $5 million verdict that found him liable for sexually abusing advice columnist E.
