Should Trump worry?
By Peter Skurkiss
The low turnout at the Trump campaign rally in Tulsa is an ominous sign for the upcoming election. Brad Parscale, Trump 2020 campaign manager, blamed the media, saying it spooked people with its constant hyping of the damages of the Wuhan virus.
That is undoubtedly true, and accordingly, that disappointing turnout is not a true indication of the support the president has. However, it does show the power the liberal media still has in framing the narrative. Remember, the low turnout was at the rally in Tulsa, which is hardcore Trump country.
We conservatives have to be careful of myopic thinking. To us, Trump seems strong and rational (which to my mind he is), while the Democrats are bound and possessed to drive the country to Crazy Town. We discount polls showing addled Joe Biden with an 8- to 10-point lead as dishonest attempts to sway public opinion, which of course they are. But that is not to say that type of fake news isn't affecting a number of people. Everything and anything that happens between now and Election Day will be spun to make Trump look bad. That cannot be discounted.
