"Trying to Find Trump’s Ground Game in Pennsylvania...
...All of this is so far anecdotal, though it fits a pattern of reporting elsewhere. It’s important to emphasize that ground campaigns do not win elections by themselves.

But all I’ve seen here in Wilkes-Barre suggests to me an effort that is not going well on the Republican side."

“If candidate performance matters in a very, very tight presidential race, on the margins, which is where this race is gonna be won or lost, which of these candidates is in a position to close strong in the last two weeks?
She is…. He's not capable of doing that now. And this is where it's going to really start to show. And she is in a position to really perform well in these last two weeks.
Doesn't mean she's going to win, but whose hand would you rather play as a campaign manager or chief strategist, a candidate who's coming into their best moment in the last two weeks or a Trump's case kind of devolving into his worst? I think she has the advantage in that.”

“So a week ago, I said, I thought the election held today was Trump, or maybe it was two episodes ago.
