A 17-day stretch with few parallels in American history has upended what looked to Donald Trump’s campaign like a clear path to victory when the former president stepped on the Republican convention stage in Milwaukee.
In that moment, a unified Republican Party had rallied around Trump after he survived an assassination attempt. His opponent, President Joe Biden, faced sagging poll numbers, sluggish fundraising and intraparty concerns over his own viability that were reaching a fever pitch. And then the 2024 presidential race was turned on its head.
However, with Harris replacing Biden, it’s no longer clear whether such gains are possible. Still, for Trump, the NABJ conference was also an opportunity to reclaim media attention after a week in which Harris had dominated headlines. But it was a high-risk move that worried some allies. “This event, more than anything he has done in months, has the most potential to go sideways,” a source close to Trump told CNN before the former president took the stage. It did, immediately.
