The news is that the white house is worried about the upcoming election. Trump's polling numbers in general are down, his economy's in bad shape, and Biden appears to be leading on a number of fronts.
One example of this worry is that he was counselled by his administration/campaign about needing to do something re. the violence associated with the protests. This supposedly was the source of him trying to look tough last week - calling himself the law and order president, violently dispersing mostly peaceful protesters to cross the street, etc.
Trump appears to be highly motivated by a need to please his base, not to mention people who might otherwise decide to vote for him. Given that his numbers aren't looking great right now - how do folks here think this will affect the next few months before the election?
Will he try to sound different (ie. more of a tough moderate, etc)? Will he try to appeal to black voters with more than "what have you got to lose"? Will he propose populist programs, or programs otherwise designed to aid the average voter?
I'm stuck trying to figure out if he'll keep being the exact same person, or whether he'll try to reinvent himself.
