None of that seems to have helped him so far - he's being doing most of that for months and months and his polls continue to get worse and worse. None of the Democrats have been "dancing on his grave" at all, they've been very restrained and respectful in their comments on his diagnosis.
Why will continuing to do the same thing suddenly change the polls in a completely different direction?

If this were to be a clean fight, you’d be right: Trump is unlikely to recover. He will however whip up hsis support to intimidate voters at the actual polls, and if he loses will claim electoral fraud.
I guess the hope is that the win is big enough that it isn't feasible for him to claim fraud, and subsequently he loses any remaining support from Republican Senators etc.

I don't think the losing supporters, whichever side, are going to simply keep quiet and accept it graciously.

There are going to be endless Republican Senators trying to distance themselves from Trump if. when he loses, the man has become a cult and it's insane...

I believe he told the American people they could use his words against him if a supreme court seat became available in the last year of a republican president and the republicans didn't wait until after the election.
Clearly they are.
Good on them. The man has no principles.

Well if you can bear to read an article in the Daily Fail, I just read Pier Morgans column as it was recommended on Press Reader.
I was convinced Morgan was a Trump licker and fan boy, but boy does he stick the boot in......
Maybe Morgan is just a master at staying on the side of the political wind, but glad he's also shouting loudly about what a fricking incompetent disaster, the orange idiot is.

To be fair, he was a big fan of Trump, 4 years ago. He's now seen the light and can see through the orange charlatan.
No along with our current Prime Minister, Piers is the very definition of:-

Yep, I could see the attraction of voting for him the first time. This time people's eyes should be wide open.
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

Hey Donald. That's how you debate something with another person who disagrees with you.
Both Pence and Harris offering reasonable behaviour and language ... And mutual respect. Not just ignoring each other and shouting.

Next stage along on that narrative is that it is a plague from God and anyone dying from it is a sinner smited by God for whatever slight against the 'holy book'. Just what evangelical, gun toting, Christian rednecks need... Licence to blame the victim!

Oh, did you miss The Trumpsters tweet yesterday then, seems like that is exactly the ally he has chosen to bowl down..

I do wonder if - despite how ridiculous this approach seems - it will work. He is basically playing to his hardcore support which shouldn't be enough as he needs to keep those who came across from "Crooked Hillary" and I am not sure further right wing than the lino on the right wing will do that. But I said the same about Toad-Face Farage in the final days of the Brexit campaign and look how that worked out. My guess is that the latter was just to mobilise his mob to vote whilst the less radical people who wanted to leave had already made their mind up. Shoring up people who will vote for you even if you eat babies live on TV seems a strange way of gaining votes and this is about the man rather than the policy as Brexit was and there were other less divisive characters than Farage pushing for the vote. But I have given up trying to understand how people think. One policy seems to be enough to win a vote, despite how bad the other policies may be to the individual - the sheer number of lifelong Labour supporters voting Tory just for Brexit shows that.
