Minus Trump, Trump campaign stays on message
The GOP nominee’s surrogates kept redirecting the conversation to preferred territory Sunday...
It was, in short, what many Republican strategists have called on Trump to do: keep the focus off his controversies and on Clinton. Trump will have the opportunity to stay on that subject matter this week, when he goes to Detroit tomorrow to deliver a speech about his plans for the U.S. economy. The nominee is expected to outline broad tax cuts, and he has floated the idea of large-scale bond-financed infrastructure investments.
The actual contents of his speech, however, are likely to keep listeners in suspense.
Thus far in the general election, Trump has eschewed message discipline in favor of a freewheeling approach that often leads him into reopening past spats, whether with members of the media, with fellow Republicans or with just about anyone else who has criticized him publicly.
Trump’s lone public contribution Sunday morning was a tweet attacking Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake...
"I see where Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake of Baltimore is pushing Crooked hard. Look at the job she has done in Baltimore. She is a joke!” Trump wrote.
