Trump campaign roiled by 'tumult and knife-fighting' as election clock ticks down

Donald Trump's third presidential campaign, once lauded as a well-oiled machine under the leadership of top advisers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, is falling apart with 45 days left before voters go to the polls. According to a report from the Washington Post's Ashley Parker, Josh Dawsey and Marianne LeVine, the Trump train wheels are coming off as Vice President Kamala Harris surges in the polls and "the most disciplined campaign" Trump has even been a part of has spiraled into infighting and finger-pointing at the worst possible time. "Just 45 days left until the election, the past three weeksreveal that whatever control and self-restraint that helped launch Trump’s third presidential campaign has largely disappeared in the crucial final stretch," The Post is reporting before adding that an insider complained a great deal of the dischord falls on the nominee himself, telling the Post. With the Post reporting, "Trump has also begun to privately criticize Lewandowski, downplaying his role on the campaign and their relationship, three people familiar with his comments said," the report adds, "Privately, Wiles has told allies that it has been difficult to see the close-knit, disciplined operation that she helped build face such tumult and infighting in the final months — and that the past few weeks have been among her least favorite since joining the operation in 2021."
