CNN’s Murray: Trump only Has a Couple of Weeks to Turn Around His Fortunes

‘I talked to a number of political operatives today in different battleground states across the country and there’s a sense when you talk to them that this race could be slipping away’

MURRAY: "I think it is absolutely critical. I talked to a number of political operatives today in different battleground states across the country and there's a sense when you talk to them that this race could be slipping away. They feel like Donald Trump really only has a couple of weeks to turn around his fortunes and that does mean staying on message. It doesn't necessarily mean, they say, delivering a speech from a teleprompter every day but it does mean you can't be jumping from one controversy to the next day after day and that's essentially what we saw last week. He gave one policy speech and he spent the rest of the week jumping from one incident to the next and trying to explain what he meant. A number of political operatives including those in Trump's own campaign is hoping this week will not be a repeat of last."
