    Jen O’Malley Dillon, the campaign chairwoman, said Trump appears to have little interest in attracting voters beyond his most faithful base.

    “We know that he lost in 2020,” she said. “In order to win, he’s got to expand his base of voters to find new people to be with him. And that is not something he’s shown that he’s really focused on.”

      Trumps strategy is to keep his base locked down while Biden actively pisses off his base every single day ensuring more and more of them don’t vote at all.

      No, you don’t understand, Trump is going to lose because he’s not expanding his base. That’s also why Biden is going to win, you see - because Biden’s done a 180 on many of his campaign planks from last time and he’s not expanding his base.
