Donald Trump may drop out of the 2020 presidential race if he believes he has no chance of winning, a Republican Party operative reportedly told Fox News.
The claim comes in a report in the president’s favourite news outlet that cites a number of GOP insiders who are concerned about Mr Trump’s re-election prospects amid abysmal polling numbers. Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, currently holds an average lead of nine points over the incumbent, according to a tracker of 2020 polls by RealClearPolitics. Crucially, Mr Trump has lost support from older white voters — typically a bedrock of support for the Republican Party and a group that was crucial to his narrow 2016 victory.
Mr Trump is also trailing the former vice president in almost all the swing states. “It’s too early, but if the polls continue to worsen, you can see a scenario where he drops out,” one anonymous GOP operative told Fox News. Charles Gasparino, the author of the Fox News report, said in a series of tweetsthat he had spoken to “major players” in the Republican party for the story.
One of them described Mr Trump’s mood as “fragile” as his chances of a second-term looked increasingly dim. Another of the GOP sources cited in the report said of the likelihood that Mr Trump will drop out: “

Oh geez. Send these people some Valium and lock them in a closet til Nov 4.
Funny, this crap about polling numbers started to appear along about the time Karl Rove insinuated himself back onto the scene.
How fake can the news possibly get between now and the next election???
Trump………Fragile?
Yeah right.
The same people said he did not want to be president the first time?
Partisan Media Shills update.
LOL...but, deranged, mentally detached Joe is in it to win it.....running the long race.
Right.
Can these leftist tools be ANY more obvious with their fear projection?
déjà vu all over again: the leftist fake stream enemedia used this one over and over again back in 2016 ...
The Deep State is going mad! They’ve done everything to drive Trump out of office and it’s still not working. This reeks of desperation. The MSM is just making things up on the fly now hoping something, anything will start to discourage the president’s supporters!
Lies. He does not give up easily.
“GOP insiders” always means Bill Kristol and/or Rick Wilson ...
I smell Paul Ryan at the bottom of this. After all, he would resign if he were criticized as much as Trump, or even a lot less. So why shouldn’t he make up this sort of fantasy about Trump? Paul Ryan and Karl Rove? I can imagine them in a small room together doing unspeakable things — like making up lies.
I came to the point where, if at some point, they can’t come up with a name I just don’t even bother to read a whole story. No “anonymous sources” for me, thank you.
I can go on YouTube and find many videos from 2016 telling me that Mr. Trump was going to drop out because he was losing. I don’t think this is believable.
This the bedtime story they tell Joe every night...
Liberals actually believe this carp.
