"Fractured response" is it now ? And that's what leftist ABC, NBC, CBS are calling it ? For all those dumb and uniformed enough to be duped by that.Understand, though, that even though Trump is making small inroads with blacks and Latinos, he's trailing his numbers pretty badly amongst certain white cohorts compared to 2016. Like old people, for instance.
If that’s the case, Casey’s friends wouldn’t be alone. The pandemic has killed some 190,000 Americans, and 8 in 10 of the deaths reported have been among those 65 or over.

Number of new cases have also dropped significantly. Hospitalizations dropped 37% in August.

PS - only a dummy watches polls. Don't you know that primarily, only Democrats answer them ? That's why they showed Hillary Clinton with a big lead right before the 2016 election. Democrats are in for another rude awakening.
