Trump campaign ‘no longer thinks New Hampshire is winnable’ as Biden joins Harris to court union voters: Live
The Trump campaign “no longer thinks New Hampshire is winnable” and is “pulling back” from the swing state, according to a leaked email from a top volunteer.
Former Republican vice chair in Massachusetts Tom Mountain declared “the campaign has determined that New Hampshire is no longer a battleground state,” according to an email seen by the Boston Globe. Instead, he advised supporters to switch tact and focus on Pennsylvania.
Meanwhile, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden appeared in lock-step at their first official joint rally on Monday since the vice president stepped onto the Democratic ticket.
“Are you ready to make Donald Trump a loser again?” the president said to cheers in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, eliminating any doubts of tensions with his VP.
Harris also appeared in person in both Michigan and Pennsylvania on Monday, and deployed several surrogates – including her running mate Tim Walz and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff – across battleground states on her behalf.
In contrast to Harris’s Labor Day blitz, her campaign team accused Donald Trump of “dodging labor on Labor Day” after the Republican’s campaign was limited to a single virtual event.
