Brad Parscale, who has been with me for a very long time and has led our tremendous digital and data strategies, will remain in that role, while being a Senior Advisor to the campaign,” Trump wrote.\u00a0“Both were heavily involved in our historic 2016 win, and I look forward to having a big and very important second win together. This one should be a lot easier as our poll numbers are rising fast, the economy is getting better, vaccines and therapeutics will soon be on the way, and Americans want safe streets and communities!”<\/p>\n<p>Though Parscale had no background in politics, he was hired to create a website for Trump’s first campaign and was eventually named as the campaign’s digital director. There were whispers that Parscale’s position on the team was at risk because of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/life\/2020\/06\/donald-trump-tulsa-rally\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the disappointing turnout<\/a> for last month’s Tulsa rally. His demotion also comes as Trump’s national poll numbers continue to fall, while presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden is seeing a steady rise.<\/p>\n<section class=\"suitcase-ad\"\/>\n<p>According to the latest <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/poll.qu.edu\/national\/release-detail?ReleaseID=3666\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quinnipiac University\u00a0poll<\/a>, the former vice president has\u00a0widened his lead over Trump by 15 points. Meanwhile, Trump’s overall job approval rating sunk to\u00a036 percent\u2014the lowest it has been since August 2017. The poll points to a number of factors that may be contributing to POTUS’ decline; these include his coronavirus response, his handling of the economy, and the way he addresses racial inequality.<\/p>\n<p>“Yes, there’s still 16 weeks until Election Day, but this is a very unpleasant real time look at what the future could be for President Trump,” said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy. “There is no upside, no silver lining, no encouraging trend hidden somewhere in this survey for the president.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/life\/2020\/07\/trump-demotes-campaign-manager-as-he-struggles-in-polls\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With less than four months until Election Day,\u00a0Donald Trump\u00a0has decided to replace\u00a0Brad Parscale\u00a0as his re-election campaign manager.\u00a0 The president announced the shake-up via social media on Wednesday, confirming Parscale would be succeeded by Bill Stepien, a political operative who worked in the 2016\u00a0Trump\u00a0campaign as the national field director.\u00a0POTUS said Parscale, who was tapped to lead […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":41880,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1584,111,572,262,943,5,7,8,1080,93],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41879","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-campaign","category-dfp-politics","category-dfp-politics-other","category-donald-trump","category-election","category-featured","category-music","category-news","category-presidents","category-tier-one"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41879","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41879"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41879\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41881,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41879\/revisions\/41881"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41880"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41879"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41879"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freshestfm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
