‘Got him in a chokehold’: Expert tells CNN Trump is having a ‘complete meltdown’

Donald Trump’s campaign is in a tailspin this week as the Republican presidential nominee’s attacks on Kamala Harris fail to land, one Democratic strategist told Anderson Cooper Wednesday.

“It’s very clear the former president is unraveling. He’s having a complete meltdown,” Ashley Etienne, a former Joe Biden staffer and political advisor, said during a segment on Cooper’s CNN show. “Kamala Harris has got him a chokehold that is really driving him to the point of insanity, and really driving his campaign to the point of paralysis.”

Etienne points out that Trump’s rise in the polls has flatlined, while Harris’ star continues to rise. She compared it to a shop that “needs new customers.”

“Trump can’t help himself but to be Donald Trump and the more people see of him, the more they are turned off by him,” Etienne said. “There’s too many people that don’t like Donald Trump and he has no path to growth.”

What’s also frustrating for Trump is that “all of his attacks against Kamala Harris are being undermined by the facts,” Etienne said, noting the strong economic reports of late and border crossings down.

“You underestimate Kamala Harris at your own peril and Donald Trump is finding that out now,” Etienne said.
