Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) is running for his third term.
Trump jumped in early and backed Brooks, but now Brooks has dropped down to 3rd place with only 16.1 percent support, down from his high of about 44 percent.
So, rather than take the loss, Trump has decided to cut ties with Brooks.
I Don’t Court Losers
Donald Trump believes the reason that Mo Brooks has fallen behind and blown his big lead is that he stopped talking about the 2020 election.
So, Trump drooped him.
In breaking with Brooks, Trump stated, “When I endorsed Mo Brooks, he took a 44-point lead and was unstoppable.
“He then hired a new campaign staff who ‘brilliantly’ convinced him to ‘stop talking about the 2020 Election.’ He listened to them.
“Then, according to the polls, Mo’s 44-point lead totally evaporated.
“Very sad but, since he decided to go in another direction, so have I, and I am hereby withdrawing my Endorsement of Mo Brooks for the Senate.”
That lead did not evaporate overnight and I would challenge Trump on the reason as to why Brooks dropped.
His slide started when he was still talking about the election, but then the other candidates came out and quite frankly, voters like them better than Brooks.
Trump should probably look at this as a warning for his own possible campaign rather than continuing to push the election results without presenting a real plan as to how he can fix the problems that Biden created.
If Trump continues to make this next election about himself rather than the American people, he could wind up handing Joe Biden a second term.
Donald Trump is polling okay among Republicans, but, nationally, he is either tie or only a few points up on Biden for a rematch of the 2020 election.
That is far too close for my liking, as we cannot afford to give Democrats another four years in office when Biden’s first term ends.
