'Like Groundhog Day': Republicans fret over Trump's fading fortunes
President Donald Trump is in an August, coronavirus-induced slump and his team is feeling it.
The White Houses negotiations with Capitol Hill over a fourth economic stimulus package fell apart on Friday after three weeks of stalled talks, leaving aggrieved administration officials to suggest Trump just take unilateral action. The number of coronavirus deaths continues to rise, and Trump has yet to present a promised strategy to curb the spread of the virus. Trump and his team are having trouble settling on a daily message or finding a way to effectively wound Joe Biden, the presidents presumptive 2020 rival.
Its all added up to an ever-growing sense of doom and gloom about the presidents political future.
Recent national polls show Trump trailing Biden by anywhere from 3 to 10 percentage points, with swing states like Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania increasingly up for grabs. Some Republican donors and outside groups are even focusing their attention away from the White House to holding on to the Republican majority in the Senate, according to three Republicans close to the White House. Several Trump allies acknowledge if the election was held today, Trump would likely lose.
