Mainly, I think this is simply too absurd to be true. What’s more, the timing of a high stakes raid is very hard to predict. They can go badly or more likely just be canceled at the last minute.

I was quite surprised when I heard that Trump had plans to attend World Series, as he’s been so careful about avoiding crowds that might boo him.
