President Donald Trump and his surrogates are trying to cast Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden as a 'Trojan horse.' But the argument may fall flat, political experts say, because Biden doesn't fit the image of a wild-eyed liberal.
President Donald Trump and his surrogates are trying to cast Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden as a “Trojan horse” who is campaigning for the White House as a moderate but if elected, would unleash a socialist, left-wing agenda on the country.
The strategy would have been far easier if Democrats had nominated a progressive candidate, such as Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, political strategists say. But it's hard to vilify a centrist. The dueling messages come as polls are tightening with less than two months before the Nov. 3 election.50% to 43%, and in nine out of 11 battleground states, according to Morning Consult. But the race remains fluid. Biden's 7-percentage-point advantage in the Suffolk poll is narrower than the 12-point lead he held in the survey in June.
“Reckless, far-left politicians continue to push the destructive message that our nation and our law enforcement are oppressive or racist,” Trump said, without mentioning Biden by name.and spoke with him by phone before meeting with Kenosha residents, to hear their concerns in a church. Biden said if elected, he would create a White House commission with police and civil rights activists to address the country’s institutional racism he said still exists after 400 years.
