Trump Advisor Signals President Could Be Less Disruptive at Thursday Debate

Ken Bredemeier

   WASHINGTON - A key campaign advisor to Republican U.S. President Donald
   Trump is signaling that the president may be less disruptive at
   Thursday's final debate with his Democratic challenger, former Vice
   President Joe Biden, than he was at their first confrontation last
   month.

   "When you talk about style and you talk about approach, I do think that
   President Trump is going to give Joe Biden a little bit more room to
   explain himself on some of these issues," Trump aide Jason Miller told
   "Fox News Sunday."

   Trump and Biden repeatedly interrupted each other at their Sept. 29
   debate, Trump more so than Biden, in what U.S. political analysts
   declared was the worst presidential debate ever. Chris Wallace, the Fox
   talk show host who moderated the debate last month, said Trump
   interrupted him or Biden 145 times during the 90-plus-minute session.

   Miller said Sunday that Trump wants Biden to explain unverified reports
   in the New York Post that Biden's son, Hunter, profited from lucrative
   deals in Ukraine through his father's connections handling U.S. foreign
   policy decisions in Ukraine when the older Biden was vice president
   under President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017.
