Now an assassination attempt that came within an inch of catastrophe. Trump hatred has been running strong.

Throughout the party there are calls to choose someone else. Very large majorities say Biden is too old and needs to go.

This morning, the election looks very different. The Democrats were hoping to use the Trump mug shot.
Instead, it’s the iconic picture of Trump coming through strong after taking a bullet. He's unifying his party to win.
Biden, with that all-too-frequent vacant stare, is fighting his own party just to stay in the game.
