Donald Trump is finally recognizing he’s at risk of losing the election unless he makes some changes.

As Democrats convened this week in Chicago, the former president’s campaign advisers reached out to people who are allies of both Trump and Brian Kemp, the popular governor of Georgia he was publicly attacking just weeks ago, to smooth things over between the two Republicans.

Trump’s advisers, meanwhile, have been privately strategizing about how to broaden his appeal with voters and shore up support among top allies. They convened a stakeholders call last week with a small group of influential Trump supporters and unofficial advisers to provide an update on the election.

    It’s wild how casually accepted that is! “Listen, we’re paying to get you elected, we get a say in your behavior”.

    But stakeholder does not exclusively mean cash investment, but anyone most highly affected by the results of the election.

      Somehow I doubt there are many trans or pregnant people on the call.
