Summary

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with Donald Trump apparently trying to deflect and posture--but it does not seem as though he is eager to face Vice President Kamala Harris on the debate stage. Also tonight, profiles in courage: we cover the surprising number of Republicans who openly support Harris, while believing that Trump is unfit for office. Plus, we have breaking news in the classified documents case that Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed last month. And, we examine the seemingly odd desperation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsing Trump after recently calling him a "terrible human being" and "probably a sociopath." Kerry Kennedy, his sister, joins Joy tonight to discuss. Listen now to this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
