Steve Schmidt: Trump ‘Going Down the Gennifer Flowers Rabbit Hole’ Bec. of Mark Cuban

SCHMIDT: "Well, you just saw the effectiveness of the tactic. It was clearly designed to provoke Donald Trump and it provoked Donald Trump, it provoked Donald Trump into going down the Gennifer Flowers rabbit hole, as opposed to doing what you’re suggesting, Chuck. And tomorrow, one of the big tasks that Donald Trump has on this debate stage, can he comport himself like an American President should comport himself? Is he going to be able to be seen by the American people as a plausible Commander-in-Chief, somebody who could address the nation in a crisis? And I think she’s going to try to push his buttons all through this debate and get a volcanic eruption, like you saw throughout the primary debates."
