Trump’s Strategy: ‘Absolutely Desperate’

Joe Scarborough is skeptical of Donald Trump’s strategy to make the American people dislike his opponent, Kamala Harris, more than they already dislike him. Recent reports revealed that the campaign plans to lower Harris’ approval ratings, prompting Scarborough to criticize the desperate and premature approach, suggesting it signals a concession of defeat.

Scarborough highlighted the significant gap in favorability ratings between the two candidates, emphasizing Trump’s negative image compared to Harris’ positive perception. He criticized the campaign’s tactics, noting their disconnect from reality.

Trump’s team conceded that their candidate is already so well-defined that their only option is to tarnish his opponent’s reputation. As the Washington Post summarized, the campaign’s goal is to damage Harris’ image due to Trump’s low chances of improving his own standing.

Ultimately, Scarborough views the strategy as a reflection of Trump’s desperation and inability to garner genuine support, resorting to tactics focused on generating hatred towards Harris.
