“He was just in a f***ing rage,” an adviser who spoke with Trump last week told Vanity Fair. “He was saying, ‘This is so unfair to me! Everything was going great. We were cruising to reelection!”

Trump has trailed behind presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the polls, particularly within key demographics in swing states.
