    I expect this Trump ABC town hall to be bonkers because he’s completely incapable of discussing policy but he rarely talks in forums where people are able to press him

        This ABC town hall is a disaster for Trump because he's unable to discuss policy, his record is objectively bad, and he's not on Fox & Friends. I'm surprised he'd agree to do this.

        Trump closes out the town hall by revealing he still hasn't figured out that the 1918 flu pandemic didn't happen in 1917. Stephanopoulos asks him if he could've done more to stop Covid.
