As the final day of the campaign approaches, advisers, allies, and aides have been urging former President Donald Trump to stay on message to avoid any potential missteps that could impact voter turnout. With Election Day just around the corner, there is a sense of urgency among those close to Trump to ensure that his rhetoric remains appropriate and focused.
During a recent rally in Pennsylvania, Trump veered off course by casting doubt on the 2024 election and making controversial remarks about his own safety. His comments about potential violence towards the media and his regrets about leaving the White House raised concerns among his inner circle.
One ally expressed frustration, questioning why Trump couldn't simply stick to a message of fixing what he believes Kamala Harris has broken. Despite these concerns, senior advisers reassured allies that Trump was aware of the importance of staying on track.
Efforts were made to keep Trump on script, with allies advising him to avoid lengthy and unplanned remarks. Delays and deviations from the planned schedule, such as being two hours late for an event in North Carolina, have also been sources of concern.
While there is a belief that most voters have already made up their minds, the emphasis on maintaining a focused and disciplined message underscores the high stakes of the election. Every vote counts, and any misstep could potentially sway undecided voters or discourage turnout.
As the campaign enters its final stretch, the pressure is on for Trump to heed the advice of his advisers and allies and deliver a consistent and strategic message in these crucial final hours.
