President Donald Trump mounted a strident defense Sunday of his wavering reelection bid with 100 days to go in a campaign that has seen him underwater in the polls - and banking on the “silent majority” he vowed will bring him victory.
“The Trump Campaign has more ENTHUSIASM, according to many, than any campaign in the history of our great Country -- Even more than 2016,“ Trump thundered on Twitter. “In 100 days, we have the chance to set our nation on a new path. One where we finally live up to our highest ideals and everyone has a fair shot at success,“ he tweeted.
That all is not well in Team Trump’s misfiring reelection bid was perhaps most evident in the president’s recent demotion of bravado campaign manager Brad Parscale. But he has largely failed to expand his fervently loyal base with a pitch that boils down to claiming Biden will have Americans “cowering to radical left-wing mobs.”
In Florida, the president garnered 46 percent support against 51 percent for Biden -- while in Arizona, the challenger was four points ahead, with 49 percent.In Michigan, Biden’s lead stands at 52 percent to 40 percent -- a larger lead than the RealClearPolitics average of recent national polls, which puts the former vice president ahead by 8.7 points.
