'Not closing well': Ex-Obama adviser says Trump is handing Harris a gift days before vote
Raw StoryDonald Trump’s final few days before the election are leaving Republicans “frustrated,” Barack Obama’s former senior adviser said Saturday. David Axelrod said on CNN that the former president is proving incapable of staying on message as he nears the vote, and it’s leaving his supporters worried. “A lot of Republicans are frustrated because Trump keeps getting off message and they would like him to be on the same message that his campaign is communicating on television in its advertising,” Axelrod said. He is actually abetting her message in the final week, and that has to make Republicans uncomfortable.” A separate report earlier Saturday claimed a senior adviser to Trump has got so frustrated with him veering off the message created for him — regarding issues such as immigration and the economy — that she called a meeting with him and demanded “this can’t go on.” But Axelrod said the last few days had shown him unable to heed her.
