As recently as one month ago, Donald Trump was merely losing. Now he is flailing, trudging into the Independence Day weekend at the nadir of his presidency, trailing by double digits in recent polls and in danger of dragging the Republican Senate down with him.Advertisement
Biden might say the wrong thing at a debate, or have an awkward moment in an interview or at a press conference. Trump’s massive advertising campaign might begin to resonate, hurting Biden’s favorability ratings. Biden’s campaign might make poor decisions about spending allocations in the battleground states, or the coverage of his campaign may sour if he loses even a percentage point or two in polls. Presidential candidates with large leads have all suffered from less.
Late this week, Les Francis, a Democratic strategist and former deputy White House chief of staff in the Carter administration, sent an email to a circle of friends, including a former congressman and former administration officials, with the subject line, “123 days until the election — and a sobering prospect.”
“Sometimes things can look very, very comfortable and it changes, it can change very, very quickly,” said Ken Khachigian, a former aide to Nixon and chief speechwriter for Ronald Reagan. “The psyche of the American voter can be affected by events very dramatically between Labor Day and Election Day.”
“If there’s one thing we learned from ’88, Biden is capable of screwing up big time,” said John J. Pitney Jr., who helped on Bush’s campaign in 1988 andPitney, who went on to become an acting director of research at the Republican National Committee, said that in the current race between Biden and Trump, “you’d have to rate [Biden] as a decisive favorite at this point.”
We are way past “still could”
xscoutie Biden won't blow it. The media will. AGAIN. We do not need pessimistic, worst-case-scenario bullshit headlines like this—it's how we got Trump. You don't have to build Biden up, but stop trying to knock him down.
nottrumpscircusagain VoteJoeBidenToSaveAmerica
November counts nothing else
Biden has already lost
I swear politico wants the republicans to win so it can have “sexy” headlines 🙄
Fake polls. Fake news.
...Joe the Groper!
Cannot let up. No lead is safe
😂😂😂😂...😂😂😂😂😂
Fat chance Politico. Nike just release a new pair of Kanye shoes.
media still jerking off to horserace politics like this is business as usual. its not.
'Polls and momentum, they're a snapshot... We have absolulely no idea where we'll be in November...''
Joe Biden is a perv.
How does Biden pull far ahead with Parkinson Disease hidden in a basement? Tony, pulled a fast one.
Biden needs to take questions that arent turned in before hand. Joes a joke. U vote Democrat u hate America.
“But there’s still room for trump to pull up” STFU POLITICO🖕🏼
Must mean you're starting to doubt the fraud.
And Breaking!!! There is a chance that monkeys will fly out of your butt
Anyone see all the boat parades across the country for realDonaldTrump. His supporters never left, they are scared to get beat up or fired and have remained silent
lol i cant w yall
Trump will win over dementia Joe
Sleepy Joe will be a badass and worse person to occupy the oval office
It’s over fir JoeBiden
Ya think?!!
The irony that Biden acts more presidential, than the current holder of that office, isn’t lost on me.
It is NOT over until that deluded orange clown walks out of the WH for the very last time. Even if BIDEN beats him, he should win by the biggest margin possible. BIDEN2020
If by “pull ahead” you mean coordinate with republican governors and Secretaries of State to suppress turnout in the fall while simultaneously receiving the help from foreign enemies...then yes. He can “pull ahead”
Vote Red!! 💃💃💃💃💃
Lol, mainstream media loves to lie to itself, legends in their own mind
Joe Biden😂😂😂😂
What there's still room for Trump to go lower. GO BIDEN. GO USA.
Announce a running mate
And plenty of chances for him and the Republicans to steal the election! TrumpTreasonousTraitor
Funny when did you do a poll? Yeah ok stop the fake ass news I only use you for a email, ARGO
Trump blows
Joey is doing great
Where are Trumps Tax Returns?
I’ve never seen a candidate run a more low-key campaign. He’s like a rumor of candidate. .JoeBiden PhantomMenace

HEADLINE: Biden builds lead as Trump goes from trailing to flailing INFO: The article provides no links or documentation to any polls that are referenced
We are not taking this election for granted, and we will turn out in great numbers to vote for Joe Biden. November 3rd will be OUR day!
BasementBiden will blow it.
NO, HE'S NOT--BUT THAT'S OK.
When he wakes up
No, and he will.
Never underestimate the power of Putin.
We're voting for Biden. You do you.
How about you staying on the current presidents fool that can’t talk right or above grade level.
No way this idiot is leading the polls are false
I’m surprised there is no mention of the possibility that either or both of the candidates may experience COVID-19 before or soon after the election
I can guarantee you, the GOP is going try a Comey maneuver, claim an investigation against their opponent but then punting hours later that it was all basically BS but wait long enough that damage is already done.
The corrupt media will prop up Joe
The PAC, 43 Alumni for Biden, claims to have hundreds of former Bush officials in its ranks and aims to boost Biden through “testimonial videos” from high-profile Republicans and voter turnout efforts in key battleground states, Reuters reported Wednesday.
Bullshix!
Joe Biden doesn't have to fall apart....Trump is crumbing more and more every day. He faced the virus and declared himself to be a wartime president and then screamed 'Retreat...Retreat'.
I'm Donald tRump and I approve this message.
False narrative. Again
BELIEVE IT OR NOT ,BIDEN WILL FALL APART, DON'T EVEN BET ON BIDEN. IT CAN ONLY BE TRUMP
We gotta treat this like Biden is trailing by double digits. Optimism can sometimes be our downfall. We get comfortable & slack off. We can't have that happen. And we need to get out there and vote on November 3rd like our democracy is hanging on by a thread (which it is).
So they finally got Biden’s dosage right?
Even some Dems are wary of polls showing Biden smoking Trump. Race can change on a dime. Ask Michael Dukakis...
Nobody trust the polls
Biden is ill prepared for the dirt coming his way from Trump. Biden Trump2020

Been listening to the Bern crowd talk shit since the primaries, and even more centrists coming out and criticizing the DNC machine. 🇺🇸 Americans are waking up. 🇺🇸
JoeBiden is barely together. Thanks to media’s duplicitous behavior in hiding & suppressing whatever cognitive degradation he is suffering. If the voters are that gullible & can be fooled so easily then US deserves what’s coming & it’s NOT good. DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica
“Circumspct observers of the 2020 campaign do not predict that Joe Biden will fall apart.” I would call their predictions circumspect.
Nobody is excited about Biden they are only excited Biden isn't trump.
Eagles fans know this well. And all of us who lived thru election night 2016
What's he going to run on? Hatred of America?
1. Russia
MAKE AMERICA PROUD AGAIN, FIRE realDonaldTrump VOTE BIDEN!
