Trump erupts at campaign team as his poll numbers slide (Five "anomnymous sources")
The Albuquerque Journal ^ | April 29, 2020 | Zeke Miller and Jonathan Lemire / AP

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump erupted at his top political advisers last week when they presented him with worrisome polling data that showed his support eroding in a series of battleground states as his response to the coronavirus comes under criticism.

As the virus takes its deadly toll and much of the nation’s economy remains shuttered, new surveys by the Republican National Committee and Trump’s campaign pointed to a harrowing picture for the president as he faces reelection.

“I am not f—ing losing to Joe Biden,” he repeated in a series of heated conference calls with his top campaign officials, according to five people with knowledge of the conversations. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about private discussions.

No - I think it was where he told everyone to eat fish cleaner that did it.

Another source less, fabricated, masturbatory fantasy for Leftist Democrat/Media cabal.

I would bet this is right.

Trump was in a shitty position.

Do nothing and Nanci Pelosi/Schummer (many more) will find one sick child that tested positive for Covid-19 and show up in Congress nursing this kid and blaming Trump for not having done enough.

Do something like he did, and you suffer the repercussions of destroying the one thing that propelled you into pole position, “it’s the economy stupid.” All his work, probably some of the best economic progress in post WWII history was undone in a matter of 2 months.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. COVID-19 was the perfect political opposition tool to where no matter what he does, you can shoot holes through him.

I think he’ll win, but if he doesn’t I’ll blame Hannity and the other “It’s just the flu” bros as much as anyone; if those idiots hadn’t have downplayed the potential severity I think President Trump would have been much more proactive

Next thing they’ll be telling you is Trump took his 9 iron and was chasing some aide around the White House. When it smells like horseshit it generally is.

later in this article they include the following quote:

“We built the greatest economy in the world,” Trump has said publicly. “I’ll do it a second time.”

WOW...you're really a NERVOUS NELLIE and not very in tune with recent political history at all. Up until the final announcement that Trump had won, on election night of '16, the entire MSM had Hillary winning.

I don't remember you on any TRUMP RALLY threads, nor any pro-Trump posts of yours...NOT EVER. So just slither away and keep your pathetic, nonsensical opinions to yourself.

I hope he did go off. That’s healthy. He should be angry. Real men get angry. And they work hard at fixing things.

With God, all will be ok.

People enjoy watching President Trump chew on the media. People want to see President Trump chew on the Do Nothing Democrats. People want President Coach Trump to get people moving and win the Super Bowl.
