Why is Donald Trump’s campaign suddenly in panic mode?

Ben Meiselas 0:00
In the blink of an eye, there's been a major vibe shift in this election. Donald Trump's campaign, which was projecting strength even though there was serious weakness underlying it all, is now in a deep panic mode. I'll show you what's going on in a moment. Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign is projecting strength. Heading into the weekend, here's what we're learning. Reporter Charlotte Alter writes, senior Harris campaign staff say their internal data shows Harris winning battleground state voters who have made up their minds in the last week by double digit margins. They say that Trump's Madison Square Garden rally was the last straw for late breaking undecided voters. And that was before Donald Trump said words to the effect of putting Liz Cheney before a firing squad at an event with Tucker Carlson.

Alter continues. Top Harris Brass says their organizing operation has knocked on 13 million doors across the battleground states. In October, they made 100 million calls into battleground states. In Pennsylvania alone, their team is on track to knock on 5 million doors and have 1 million conversations with voters by Election Day. Top campaign staff believe Harris's momentum is because the work they're putting in. But also because Trump's Madison Square Garden fiasco has broken through to late breaking undecided voters. That's where Trump campaign referred to Puerto Ricans as trash and made other horrific statements about the Latino community. And then Donald Trump dressed up like a garbage man. And then Donald Trump threatened the life of Liz Cheney.

The Madison Square Garden rally has sharpened the contrast and reminded voters what Trump is like. As our friend Matthew Dowd, who actually led the Bush-Cheney 2004 campaign, he was their data guy, so he knows this polling stuff very well. Here's what he says. In 2016 in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, voters who decided in the last week went for Trump overwhelmingly, providing him his margin of victory in each of those states and the electoral win. My sense is the same thing is happening for Vice President Kamala Harris this time. Late deciding voters are breaking for her. He explains in 2000, an old DWI surfaced in the last days and hurt Bush. In 2004, the Osama video surfaced in the last days and helped Bush.

In 2012, hurricane hit in the last days and helped Obama. In 2016, Comey letter comes out in the last days and hurt Clinton. Don't let anyone tell you moments in the last days can't move folks. One of the other signs that the Trump campaign is panicking massively, here's what one of their top advisors, Stephen Miller, is saying. In addition to Donald Trump claiming there's cheating going on here and recycling the same lies from 2020. which reeks of desperation. Here's what Stephen Miller writes. They are importing actual plagues into the country now. For the love of God, vote. And they're accusing they, Democrats, of importing tuberculosis in America right now to somehow influence the vote or something like that.

Donald Trump dressed as a garbage man. Don Jr. dressed up in garbage. As our editor in chief, Ron Filipkowski, says, if he had not been born into wealth and had to survive on his own talent and abilities, he'd be wheeling that stuff around town in a shopping cart looking for a place to sleep tonight. That's Don Jr. dressed up as garbage. Here is Eric Trump dressed up as trash for Halloween. All of the MAGA supporters to show solidarity with the movement are dressed up as trash as well and have trash bags over them for some reason. And one of the main MAGA surrogates, Anna Paulina Luna, she's doing modeling photo shots for Maxim Magazine. And Matt Gaetz is saying, we are so back. Donald Trump's other top surrogate, Amber Rose, is holding events at a strip club, the We F Trump Club.
