Pressure mounts to match Biden’s convention performance (CNN)President Donald Trump's relentless effort to undermine Joe Biden as "Sleepy Joe" backfired this week when the former vice president delivered a forceful speech accepting the Democratic presidential nomination. Now the pressure is on the President to right his own campaign as he heads into the Republican National Convention next week.
Trump, a former television producer and the ultimate showman, is heavily involved in the planning for the four-day extravaganza that will give him an opportunity for a reset. He is aiming to create a more dynamic program than the Democrats with more live programming and audience interaction to lift his poll numbers.
"Pressure to match?!? "
Trump's State of the Union sppech in January 2020, before there was any lockdown and people had a lot of other things they could do with their time, had 38 million viewers.
Biden's acceptance speech at the Democraticv National Convention a few days ago had 22 million viewers, only 57% of Trump's audience.
I don't see Trump as worrying about any competition from Biden.
