Former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer offered President Donald Trump some unsolicited debate advice during a Wednesday morning segment of “Fox & Friends.” Trump drew fire after the debate for consistently interrupting both Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden as well as moderator Chris Wallace. In criticizing both sides, Fleischer called the entire debate a “train wreck” with “too much interrupting by candidates.” After Fleischer finished weighing in on the overall debate during the panel segment, Fox News host Steve Doocy asked him if he had a whiteboard somewhere around to offer Trump some advice. “I have no idea how you knew that,” Fleisher asked, laughing. “You are clairvoyant. I happen to have one.” WATCH: “Here’s my advice on the next debate,” Fleischer continued. “One, interrupt less. It’s perfectly fine at key moments to jump in.

Likewise, Democrats unleashed today’s War on Gas.
