I will on occasion slip back into a pre-2016 thought process of how to look at campaigns. A few days ago I saw a headline that "Harris challenges Trump to take cognitive test" and for a few seconds it made me a little worried but then I saw the context that she was asked about Trump calling her low iq and this was in her response and I thought that was fine. The reason I got a little worried because I thought if you're talking about Trump's cognitive ability unprompted in the last week of the campaign, that's probably not a good sign.
I bring that up because Trump's such a weirdo that we don't attribute that type of traditional political strategy to his behavior. But if you were to do that, the things he's done this week would suggest that he's headed for a bad loss. Really trying to turn Biden's gaffe (a story that hasn't broken through the political bubble) into the predominant story in the days immediately before the election would only be done by someone that thinks they're about to lose. And on a much lesser note him going to Dearborn, and courting the votes of a community that I belong to, but is also about 2% of the electorate in Michigan and many of us may not vote for Harris but she's still going to get way more votes from us than Trump is also loser behavior.
