Donald Trump is finally recognizing he’s at risk of losing the election unless he makes some changes.

As Democrats convened this week in Chicago, the former president’s campaign advisers reached out to people who are allies of both Trump and Brian Kemp, the popular governor of Georgia he was publicly attacking just weeks ago, to smooth things over between the two Republicans.

Trump’s advisers, meanwhile, have been privately strategizing about how to broaden his appeal with voters and shore up support among top allies. They convened a stakeholders call last week with a small group of influential Trump supporters and unofficial advisers to provide an update on the election.

    I do like how he says he’s going to create a new presidential commission on assassination attempts because RFK likes him now.

      Also because he wants to be the center of attention for everything, and this committee would apply to him specifically.

      It probably makes me a bad person, but he didn’t die and I could give a fuck about the attempt or the commission.
