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,&#8221; Trump wrote.\u00a0&#8220;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!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Though Parscale had no background in politics, he was hired to create a website for Trump&#8217;s first campaign and was eventually named as the campaign&#8217;s digital director. There were whispers that Parscale&#8217;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&#8217;s Tulsa rally. His demotion also comes as Trump&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8217; decline; these include his coronavirus response, his handling of the economy, and the way he addresses racial inequality.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, there&#8217;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,&#8221; said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy. &#8220;There is no upside, no silver lining, no encouraging trend hidden somewhere in this survey for the president.&#8221;<\/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 [&hellip;]<\/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}]}}
