Republicans that have spoken with Trump in recent days describe him as depressed and down in the dumps. People around him think his hearts not in it, a Republican close to the White House said. Torn between the imperative to win suburban voters and his instincts to play to his base, Trump has complained to people that hes in a political box with no obvious way out. According to the Republican, Trump called Tucker Carlson late last week and said, what do I do? What do I do?
To console himself, Trump still has moments of magical thinking. He says the polls are all fake, a Republican in touch with Trump told me. But the bad news keeps coming.

According to a Republican working on the convention, the campaign is now preparing to cancel the event so that Trump doesnt suffer another Tulsalike humiliation.
