Trump suddenly realises he might lose in November
Donald Trump has for once begun to believe all the "fake news" in opinion polls and newspaper reports which indicate he is so far behind Joe Biden he will lose in November and for ever be known as a one-term president. Thanks to Politico which has been canvassing multiple people close to the president, Trump himself is now acknowledging things are looking bad for him. This must be a stark moment of truth for Trump. He is a man who is convinced of hs own political immortality. He doesn't understand defeat or to put it another way he can't accept defeat because he is a winner. That has been his message ever since he took power in January 2017. America First, Trump First, the man with the omniscient brain who knows more than anyone else. It's kind of catching. But not any more. The polls are dreadful. The pandemic is a nightmare still in so many states and there appears to be nothing Trump can do to stop it spreading further once again. It's not necessarily a second wave but it's a punishment for jumping too early. All those crowds of people dashing out from lockdown. It was fatally premature and Trump effectively encouraged it. So for the Apprentice president it's gloom and doom all the way to November unless he can bring about a miracle. But judging by his closest officials and advisers, the great Trump momentum has come to a halt. There is just too much bad news around to revive his chances. Biden will emerge from his basement and take the trophy.
