Pro-Trump PAC says candidate faces uphill battle

“He’d lose badly today,” Ed Rollins, who heads the Great America super-PAC, said on the Laura Ingraham Show Wednesday.

The pro-Trump PAC leader said that he hopes to see a turnaround in the GOP presidential nominee’s campaign in the next several weeks.

“If we’re sitting here three weeks from now after Labor Day and it’s in the same position, we’re gonna have a hard uphill battle,” Rollins said. “He’d lose badly today. He has a chance. He’s got a new team in there, Kellyanne’s (Conway) a great talent who’s been the campaign manager. She knows how to drive a message. She knows how to develop a message. Bannon is a very effective communicator.”

Trump’s best bet moving forward, Rollins said, is hammering Hillary Clinton as hard as possible.

“So far, it’s been all about him, and with his ego he kind of likes that,” said Rollins. “At the end of the day, it’s got to be about her. He’s got to make her the unacceptable alternative.”

That may be true; but it’s also worth noting that there’s a hefty movement within the GOP which has already declared Trump as a totally unacceptable candidate.

While the Trump campaign maintains that “undercover voters” are going to carry him to presidential victory, the latest polling data out from Reuters/IPSOS shows Clinton leading the GOP candidate by 12 points.

If, as Rollins noted, that becomes a trend continuing into the next month, it’s bad news for Trump.

For Libertarian Party presidential candidate Gary Johnson, it could be the best news of the year.
