Trump's poor poll numbers trigger GOP alarms over November

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senior Republicans and President Donald Trump’s campaign are wrestling with how to best position him for November as the coronavirus poses a grave threat to his reelection.

With Trump’s poll figures sagging in key battleground states six months out from the election, the Republican National Committee has launched a massive effort to reach some 20 million swing voters to make an affirmative case for his performance. But Trump campaign officials are taking a different approach: Rather than devoting resources to boost Trump’s numbers, which haven’t moved materially since he was elected, they want to go scorched earth against Joe Biden.

Over the past few weeks, the Trump campaign has unveiled a digital ad savaging Biden over his relationship with China. It also launched a weekly online program dubbed "War Room" in which presidential advisers take aim at the former vice president on an array of issues. The campaign has also weighed a major TV offensive going after Biden.

The deliberations illustrate how the highest ranks of the Republican Party are grappling with the uncertainty the coronavirus crisis has injected into the race — and how best to prepare for a general election that looks nothing like what they'd been anticipating.

1. Bye Don

[Volaris]

18. I really really hope that the New York State Attorney and Manhattan DAs office...

Serves his fat grifter ass with indictments the moment he gets off the helicopter on Jan 20th.

[sandensea]

22. Absolutely. Him, Incestvanka, and Prince Jared.

Enough corruption between the three of them to make Imelda Marcos blush.

[OAITW r.2.0]

2. They will remember this time as the height of his popularity.

It's on a linear negative trajectory. I am confident that this administration is incapable of altering the course of this disaster and the subsequent wrecking of our economy.

Does the VP mannequin that gets rolled out daily....is he the official administration undertaker? He fits the bill.

[Ferryboat]

3. Gloves have to come off

Post vids of his trash talking women, minorities overseas allies. Everything! Drag his kids into it, after all they are members of the administration or campaigning for him.
The grifting, self dealing. I could go on but we are all aware of and have probably forgotten alot.

His attacks on the media gets his knuckle dragging base fired up, so lets leave them out of the attack ads.

[Lock him up.]

10. He promised he will release his tax returns 4 years ago.

FOUR years ago.

Audits are not a valid reason to not release them. AD please.

[Maraya1969]

13. As a matter of fact where is the SCOTUS on this? They were supposed to rule by now!

If they rule that the taxes must be released then they must be released.

But I agree that using his tax returns against him is a great idea.

[misanthrope]

14. Not yet

Hold your powder. Patience.

[GusBob]

4. Headlines across the world in November

You’re fired

[sfstaxprep]

5. Fuck Each And Every Republican nt

19. 👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽THIS !!!👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽

[EarlG]

6. How best to position him?

Something like this maybe?

[Laelth]

7. I gleefully await seeing the rats jumping ship.

And I think we will start seeing that soon. I bet there are a number of Republican Senators, for example, who now wish that they had voted to remove Trump from office. We shall soon see significant “distancing” from the President, I suspect.

[Lock him up.]

8. More or less the same bull as before the 2018 Historic Blue Wave...

If not a worst bull

They are unable to... learn.

They're only able to... cheat.

[Skittles]

9. they'll be crying for more help from Uncle Putie

fuck them

[stillcool]

11. So, it'll be like every other election...

featuring the GOP. Jeeze, you'd think they could actually win one on their own merits. When was the last time they did that? No, that's not the Republican way. Trash, bash, and then create the perception that the info you blanketed the airwaves with sank your opponent. Provide election manipulation...and presto..a how-to win an election GOP style.

[underpants]

12. There are already a lot of ads specific to the virus. They are slow.

If major corporations can get ads specific to the virus out this quick you’d think making ads using audio, images, and voiceovers would be much easier.

Sounds like they have a stupid problem.

[Blue Owl]

15. To hell in a bleach mop bucket with them

n/t

[uponit7771]

16. The current culture of of the kGOP needs to be choked to death and buried in a desert NOW. They're

... poisonous and don't want a liberal democracy.

[winstars]

17. Pug's: Biden and China, yeah, thats the ticket!!! ASSHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Renew Deal]

20. I don't think people care about the China issue.

1. There isn't an issue.
2. Biden was right and Trump was wrong about China and Coronavirus
3. It makes no difference to people's every day lives
4. Nothing has come from Trump's belligerence with China.

[Initech]

21. Bye Don! And take your whole damn party with you!

[crickets]

23. Kinda hard to go all scorched earth on your opponent when you are responsible

for the deaths of tens of thousands of people, with more dying every day.

Just sayin'.

[struggle4progress]

24. "Maybe we can make everybody so poor and sick, they won't have the strength to go to the polls!"

[DFW]

25. I can imagine some people are getting some fat consulting fees right around now

Jeb Bush
Katherine Harris
Kenneth Blackwell
Scott Walker
