“A 17-day stretch with few parallels in American history has upended what looked to Donald Trump’s campaign like a clear path to victory when the former president stepped on the Republican convention stage in Milwaukee,” CNN reports.
“In that moment, a unified Republican Party had rallied around Trump after he survived an assassination attempt. His opponent, President Joe Biden, faced sagging poll numbers, sluggish fundraising and intraparty concerns over his own viability that were reaching a fever pitch.”
“And then the 2024 presidential race was turned on its head.”
Said one Trump insider to Tara Palmeri: “It’s just two weeks, and I’m like, what the hell is going on.”
