Trump has no dirt on Tester, and he's done this many times.

He just said that he "knows things" about John Tester- that if he spilled it, "he'd never get elected again".

He knows nothing, and I've seen him use this trick before.

By just stating it as fact, his supporters will now view Tester as dirty, if only Trump reveals the dope. Trump did the same on the campaign when he said he had investigators in Hawaii looking at Obama's birth certificate, "and you wouldn't believe what they're finding!" Of course we never heard anymore about those facts he "uncovered", and he's used this tactic over and over since.

... that Trump would hesitate for one minute to dish out dirt on an opponent if there was actual dirt to dish out?

Does anyone still attend his rallies?

That the President needs to show more respect for the health of our veterans. We still don't have a VA Director since he fired the last one. Then he tried to put in his personal doctor without any vetting whatsoever. Sometimes his incompetence is almost earthshaking.
