Wall Street Journal: Trump should change tack or drop out

[John Miller 761]

Just what you'd expect from that über-liberal rag, isn't it?

Republican Donald Trump should fix his stumbling White House campaign by Labor Day or step down, The Wall Street Journal said on Monday in a sharply worded warning from a leading conservative voice.

"Mr. Trump has alienated his party and he isn't running a competent campaign," the newspaper said in an editorial.

...

"If they can’t get Mr. Trump to change his act by Labor Day, the GOP will have no choice but to write off the nominee as hopeless and focus on salvaging the Senate and House and other down-ballot races," it said.

...

"As for Mr. Trump, he needs to stop blaming everyone else and decide if he wants to behave like someone who wants to be president - or turn the nomination over to Mike Pence," it said, referring to the Indiana governor, who is Trump's vice presidential running mate.

...

Trailing in opinion polls in so-called battleground states, Trump has increasingly begun to portray himself as a victim of the media.

The Journal said Trump mistakenly believes his rowdy rallies will morph into votes and he can get away with relying on social media instead of spending money to compete in battleground states.

He has two weeks to turn this around to have any hope, after labor day the # of undecideds drops with not a lot of movement after that point.
