Situation Report (SitRep): Trump Campaign Mobilization
Date: November 3, 2024
Time: 1000 hrs
Location: Key Battleground States (Focus: Pennsylvania)
1. Overview: Victory Within Reach
The Trump campaign believes "victory is within our grasp,” according to Boris Epshteyn, who reported to the WarRoom from the campaign trail with President Trump. In a high-energy Sunday conversation, Bannon and advisor Boris Epshteyn emphasized the importance of mobilizing support over the next 48–72 hours. "If we execute,” Epshteyn stated, "we win.”
2. Current Status: Polling and Positioning
Polling data in key battlegrounds is trending positively for Trump, with Pennsylvania emerging as a stronghold. Recent Atlas polls show Trump leading by 3 points. Epshteyn confirmed, "We’re dominating,” describing Pennsylvania as "perfect ground.” Confidence remains high, but the campaign is focused on turnout.
3. Actions Taken: Early Voting Analysis
The team reviewed early voting trends, noting Democratic gains with women voters.
Concerns remain about African-American male turnout in key urban areas, specifically Philadelphia.
Despite early data, Epshteyn advised the team to "stay focused on Election Day representation.”
4. Key Challenges: Turnout and Messaging
Mobilizing Election Day turnout is critical. Bannon highlighted that Republicans "have a history of representing on Election Day.” Signals are challenging during the president’s travel events, with frequent interruptions to communication, Bannon said when the connection dropped, which was picked up later in the program. Epshteyn noted that "mass mobilization” is essential and urged the base to "show up on Tuesday.”
5. Planned Actions: Mobilize and Monitor
The campaign will focus on mass mobilization initiatives through rallies and media engagement. Real America’s Voice coverage is scheduled to extend throughout Election Day. The goal is simple: deliver the vote. "If we deliver, then we win,” Epshteyn stated.
6. Support Needed: Voter Engagement
The team calls on supporters to help with voter turnout and report any polling irregularities. Bannon urges volunteers to "stand ready,” reinforcing the importance of vigilance in key precincts.
7. Recommendations: Stay Calm and Confident
With victory in sight, the campaign team is advised to maintain clarity. "We’re in the fog of war,” Bannon noted, but staying focused on turnout will be the key to success.
