LEAK:

1) I can report that Trump’s decision to skip all the debates is not due to his lead in the polls, but rather is dictated by his worsening health. Sources close to the campaign believe Trump was diagnosed with congestive heart issues shortly after leaving office…

2) The campaign has been experimenting with a surrogate strategy that will have notable Trump supporters do the in-person campaigning while the former president spends much of the next year at home and in court, while having far fewer and shorter rallies…

3) This will help reduce campaign expenses and provide the former president with more cover for his worsening condition.

Still, even the short appearances are causing concern…

4) the former president has been greatly fatigued after campaign events and court appearances, his voice has become strained and slurry on occasion. Congestive heart issues lead to fluid build-up in the lungs, which make breathing and talking more challenging…

5) The plan as of now is to run a variation of Biden’s basement campaign, with surrogates hosting more events and with the former president unlikely to have more than a single rally per month.

6) Trump is not believed to be suffering from any cognitive issues, despite a family history with Alzheimer’s disease.

But chronic heart issues are a big concern given his age, and given that both of the former president’s younger brother’s died from heart attacks.

7) several staffers became alarmed when a plan to release a detailed medical report, in an effort to compare and contrast Trump favorably to the 80-year-old Joe Biden, was shot down and buried.

8) the campaign has relied on allied media organizations to generate and hype up a series of push polls in an effort to build a public excuse for the former president to skip a number of traditional campaign events and debates…

9) the campaign is also pushing for taped interviews with friendly media, due to the unpredictable nature of his worsening condition. His upcoming interview with Tucker Carlson has already been taped as are all of his Hannity town halls…

10) sources close to the campaign believe that some officials at the top of RNC are aware of Trump’s issues and are adjusting rules and regulations to accommodate him, like allowing his surrogates into the spin room for a debate he’s avoiding.

11) sources suggest that Bedminster event, where Trump was to disclose “irrefutable & overwhelming evidence” of voter fraud was NOT canceled due to advice from his attorneys, but rather due to health concerns.

12) In case you needed more confirmation on the accuracy of these sources, the puddle of hysteria leaking from Laura Loomer gives away the game:
