CLEVELAND, OHIO (The Borowitz Report)Donald J. Trump somehow seemed unlikeable and obnoxious in his first 2020 debate performance, despite extensive pre-debate coaching from Chris Christie and Rudy Giuliani, campaign staffers have confirmed.
After the debate, staffers were baffled that Trump could appear so off-putting and odious after being prepped by two of the nations most beloved and appealing public figures.
Call it an aura, if you will, or a kind of magic, but Chris and Rudy have that special sauce that makes people want to hug them, one aide said. We all thought that, by putting Trump in the same room with them, some of their fairy dust would rub off on him.
It didnt happen, the aide said. Chalk it up to the mysteries of politics.
In the wake of Trumps abysmal performance, the campaign is replacing Christie and Giuliani as coaches for the second debate. Its more important than ever to make Trump likable, and thats why were bringing in Mitch McConnell and Devin Nunes, the aide said.

(1,442 posts)If he can't help Trash win more friends and influence more people, then no one can.
For one thing, I'm sure Congressman Gaetz will wisely advise Trash to call in a pizza delivery for his posse during the debate. After all, everyone knows how well that tactic has worked in the past.
