President Trump on Thursday met with a group of top campaign officials at the White House to discuss polling and messaging strategies as recent surveys show him trailing presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden nationally and in key swing states.
The president huddled with Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, campaign manager Brad Parscale and others to discuss the latest polling, according to a Trump campaign official.
The meeting was focused on strategy, specifically how the campaign can try and define Biden to voters moving forward, the official said.
"When Joe Biden is defined the president runs very strong against him," the official said.
Trump then held an expanded meeting about messaging in the Cabinet Room of the White House that involved communications staff, during which the president spoke with advisers Katrina Pierson and Paris Dennard about outreach to the black community.
