During a discussion on why Donald Trump is taking his show on the road into states he has no chance of winning in less than seven days, one MSNBC analyst suggested the former president and his campaign is being dogged by low turnout in MAGA territory which has become an embarrassment.
The morning after Vice President Kamala Harris packed the ellipse in Washington, D.C., the "Morning Joe " panel noted that the Trump and his aides are trying to project an aura of invincibility despite polling that shows a close race.
According to MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire, the show of bravado is likely tied to the fact that no one who is close to Trump wants to tell him he's losing.
'There are two things in play," he told the co-hosts of "Morning Joe."
"First the Trump team is going to boast and focus on the good news because the boss, ie. trump, doesn't want to hear the bad. There's not someone walking in saying, 'Sir we're losing,' that's not how that campaign works."
"So even if there is data that shows a tight race or even trailing, they're not going to share it widely because Trump won't stand for it," he added. "But the second piece of it is what you and I were talking about and have talked about before: this idea that they're projecting the victory to lay the ground work for a possible appeal. That they want to get their supporters so conditioned to expect a win, there will be therefore so much anger if they lose and they can try to stoke that anger in their attempts to contest the election."
"And Mika, we're also seeing a projection of what appears to be confidence from the Trump campaign scheduling events in blue states," he elaborated. "He's got a rally coming up in Virginia and another rally in New Mexico. The Trump team says, well, we see numbers there we thought we could be in play, maybe help some congressional candidates. Democrats suggests the opposite. Trump, this is his third presidential cycle. He's been in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan so many times people have seen him so many times he's having trouble drawing the rally crowds he wants. If he goes somewhere new, he's more of a novelty factor, people will show up."
