US Elections: President Trump in debate prep before faceoff with Biden

President Donald Trump spent Tuesday morning in informal preparations for first debate with Joe Biden. A longer, more formal preparation session was set for afteron once he arrives in Cleveland.

Trump’s prep team includes former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, campaign communications strategist Jason Miller, White House chief of staff Mark Meows, Jared Kushner, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany and communications director Alyssa Farah. Some or visers like Dan Scavi and Hope Hicks have also been involved.

While Trump is itching to go on offense against Biden, some aides have encourd him to opt a more measured tone -- believing that in many ways debates are more about Trump vs himself than Biden. Trump, y argue, should focus more on selling his accomplishments than trying to viciously attack Biden. Some involved with preparations, though, have encourd Trump’s more aggressive ‘counterpunching’ side.
