Controlling The Narrative

Trump is flailing.
The really important thing to consider, he continued, is that "it's not just an anti-Trump campaign, it is a pro-Kamala campaign. That's why this is more than just a presidential race. It has turned into a social political movement." 
"That's in many ways why Donald Trump is flailing," Smikle said. "He doesn't know how to land his attack. It's not going anywhere. 'Black jobs' turned into a rallying point. 'When you did you first learn that you were Black' turned into a rallying point. When you have that kind of — when you have that kind of energy and you see 60 percent of the donations were from women, two-thirds were new donations, people are engaged. They want to support — all those things that Donald Trump is running on, Kamala Harris represents the antithesis of that. She represents all of those things that are forward-looking and not in the rearview mirror." 
"That's why when she says, forward never backward, and Trump comes with the Project 2025 and Make America Great Again, what are you talking about, dude? And he's feeling that, he's seeing that. You see how the campaign is responding. I can't even really compare it to obama in 2007, 2008, that was two years of a campaign that you had to drive up. This is an intense period."
When you see Trump’s debate announcement in this context,  you see how he reeks of desperation and flopsweat. 

“Black jobs” has been turned against him.

 Even before Kamala he abandoned Project 2025 and disavowed any knowledge of its actions.

 Now he wants “Rolling Stone” to know he meant to go full racist at the NABJ (after refusing to go on stage for 30 minutes if they were going to fact check him?). 

And, in an act of cowardice, he calls his own debate a week ahead of the one he previously agreed to, and dares Kamala be there. Because he won’t come to ABC. And because he’s so weak he can only follow her lead (she dared him to show up, or she’d go on without him).

He’s not in charge of anything.
