WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s erratic handling of the coronavirus outbreak, the worsening economy and a cascade of ominous public and private polling have Republicans increasingly nervous that they are at risk of losing the presidency and the Senate if Trump does not put the nation on a radically improved course.
The scale of the GOP’s challenge has crystallized in the last week. With 26 million Americans now having filed for unemployment benefits, Trump’s standing in states that he carried in 2016 looks increasingly wobbly: New surveys show him trailing significantly in battleground states like Michigan and Pennsylvania, and he is even narrowly behind in must-win Florida.
Democrats raised substantially more money than Republicans did in the first quarter in the most pivotal congressional races, according to recent campaign finance reports. And while Trump is well ahead in money compared with the presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden, Democratic donors are only beginning to focus on the general election, and several super political action committees plan to spend heavily on behalf of him and the party.
Perhaps most significantly, Trump’s single best advantage as an incumbent — his access to the bully pulpit — has effectively become a platform for self-sabotage.

Okay, sure.
You show up, after two years of MIA from FR to post your trash Trump post?
You sound just like the lefties on Twitter with this drivel.
You are a RINO, at best.
Take another long leave.
Not in this foxhole, thank you.
Yeah, right! Dreamers.
Trump team triggered it prematurely...

Watch! This is the New York Times suggesting that Trump is sinking in popularity which is adverse to the fact. This is what Trump was refering to when he talked about ‘FAKE NEWS’. The New York Times is getting more awful by the day.
“Nervous NYT sees PRESIDENT Trump rising in popularity, so they make crap up about PRESIDENT Trump”
BINGO! Can’t stand the media....grrrr!

It’s April. Be concerned if things are not improved on Labor Day.
Projection again...part of the mental disorder part of liberalism.
The idiots at the New York Times have been talking to Bill Krystol and other nutcases again? Do they ever tire of putting out the same lies for almost four years?
Thanks for clarifying what you meant about in before William Shatner
Yep...they’re nervous that POTUS ISN’T sinking, in spite of all the crud they’ve thrown at him, day after day, 24/7.
That's akin to ordering a large stack of POISON PANCAKES for breakfast.
As a Concerned Conservative I’ve got to say...
These weak puddles of snivel sauce need to harden the frack up.
Life Hack:
If people want the left to quit treating them like idiot punk b**ches, they need to stop being idiot punk b**ches.
Punk b**ch = useful idiot.
You’re welcome, thanks for asking.
So where do you draw the line? Republishing lies or propaganda makes you the same as CNN or the NYT. Why quote them if you don’t endorse them?
PS..thanks for your original response.
So the White House is changing the briefings per Politico and other news sources. I am saying this because there had to be changes the atmosphere was getting really bad and to the average “Joe” things look bad even though they are good. The animosity of the press is not understood by Joe sixpack.
(This is all I was saying that the meetings have to change because the content is really turning off people and I will post the link to the article below but the White House press secretary has also told Fox News there had to be changes.)
>>President Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again coronavirus briefing is back on, the White House announced Monday, a reversal of course that came hours after the administration canceled its previously scheduled afternoon press conference.
The White House’s waffling on Monday’s briefing followed a Fox News interview with press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, who teased that the administration’s coronavirus briefings “may have a different look” this week.<<
