Concerns have caused fractures to appear inside Trumpworld, with some Maga allies criticizing advisers

Donald Trump’s campaign recognizes that it could lose in November if the election is decided on “vibes” and “energy”, according to people close to the former president, as Kamala Harris continues to ride waves of momentum with her newly announced running mate Tim Walz.

The concern has also started to open fractures inside Trumpworld, with some Maga allies criticizing Trump’s political advisers for running a campaign that may be too structurally deficient to stand up a ground game in swing states.

The Trump campaign has sketched out a strategy to hit back and are expected to cast the Harris campaign as the most progressive ticket, as they aim to get the political messaging back on their records in office and away from coverage about Harris’s extraordinary enthusiasm with voters.

    may be too structurally deficient to stand up a ground game in swing states.

    That’s not the current Trump campaign. Several state parties particularly in swing states have been terribly disorganized and lacking in funds because it turns out the maga loyalty doesn’t make someone a great political operative. The whole Republican operation is mismanaged and looted since 2020 and accelerating after 2022.

    Trump and his advisers are to blame for that, but it’s a much larger issue than this campaign. Michigan I know is as absolute fucking mess for Republicans and you can see it in the polling for Michigan vs other swing states.

    expected to cast the Harris campaign as the most progressive ticket

    This doesn’t feel like it will be successful when Bernie Sanders is still around. “Progressive” just doesn’t have that same fearmongering vibe that communist and socialist does, and it’s really hard to pin socialism on her when she’s clearly not the furthest left populist Democrat.
