Huffpost: Trump Camp Worries 'Bottom Has Started To Fall Out' Of Campaign, The Atlantic's Tim Alberta Reports

Tim Alberta, a staff writer at The Atlantic, went on CNN to discuss the final days of the Trump campaign after writing a feature on the crucial sprint to Election Day.

“As of a few weeks ago, people close to him were still pretty bullish on his prospects,” Alberta said Monday night. “I’m not sure that’s the case anymore. I think there is a real fear that the bottom has started to fall out here at the worst possible moment and that they are closing in about as weak of fashion as you possibly could.”

“If sprinting through the tape is at one extreme,” he said, “I think sort of crawling or limping through the tape is at the other. And I think that’s how a lot of the Trump folks feel right now.”

With the former's continuing demise and Kamala getting stronger, I don't believe I'd be worrying as much as I am now.

…and not just on their boss being old and unhinged, because that’s never stopped him before.

purpose or he has no control whatsoever of what comes out of his mouth. And, he did infamously say that he could shoot someone on 5th Ave and the Cult wouldn't care or something like that.

So he could Narcissistically be thinking he could still get away with anything in his devolving state of mind.

Personally I hope karma gets him soon for all the horrible acts he's Committed in his life.

Pretty deep and well-sourced. The finger pointing is a sign of a failed campaign - seems like good news for our side!
