Former President Donald Trump and his campaign last month believed that they were cruising to victory against President Joe Biden.
Since Biden dropped out of the race, however, Vice President Kamala Harris has erased Trump's lead, and campaign reporter Jake LaHut believes that the former president is offering a telltale sign that his campaign is in real trouble.
Writing on X, LaHut points to recent frantic Truth Social posts from the former president angrily ranting about polls showing him losing to Harris.
"The NYT/Siena Poll has way over sampled [sic] Democrat voters, and way under sampled people who voted for me in 2020," wrote Trump in one post, referring to an election that he lost by more than 7 million votes in the popular vote nationwide. "The Fake News York Times insisted they do this so that it would look as bad as possible in comparison to their last poll, which was very good for me, way up, and made the very biased Times look 'stupid,' just like in 2016."

Of course, the last Times poll that showed Trump leading was when he was being polled against Biden rather than Harris.
All of this reminded LaHut of a quote he got from a Trump ally about the state of the race back in April: "Until we get to the point where we start telling you these polls are all wrong, that’s when you start worrying.”
