President Donald Trump trails four of his Democratic challengers in a national poll conducted by Trump-friendly Fox News, and does not break 40% of the vote against any of his opponents.
The poll shows Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, running five points ahead of the 45th President for the first time. Trump appeared to react on Thursday night, reviving and applying the racial slur "Pocahontas" in referring to the senator.
In an autobiography, Warren wrote of possible Native American ancestry in her Oklahoma background, and later took a DNA test to prove it. She was criticized by the Cherokee Nation for doing so.
"Like, Elizabeth Warren -- I did the Pocahontas thing," said the President. "I hit her really hard and it looked like she was down and out but that was too long ago.
"I should've waited. but don't worry, I will revive it."
Trump will need all the slurs he can come up with. The Fox poll shows him trailing ex-Vice President Joe Biden with 50-38%, running behind Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., 45-39%, and trailing Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vermont, 48-39%.

(19,199 posts)What's Chump going to do without Roger Ailes to prop him up at FOX? He still has Hannity, Ingraham et al. to beat the drum, but Ailes threatened everyone into propping up his sexual predator compadre to fool the FOX sheeple viewers. Once and a while the truth gets through to the FOX sheeple now, and that can't be good for Chump.

(4,425 posts)He will use constant personal attacks; insults, name calling and lies. This will work well with his base. He will also escalate his attacks on the squad, as if they were also running for President. This will also work well with his base.
If the media insists on reporting every attack, insult and lie as straight news, it might work with other people, too. The next 15 months are going to be packed solid with this.
He has nothing else to run on.
