US President Trump to address America tonight

November 04, 2020 09:00

Donald Trump wants to "project strength" and "set his own narrative" tonight, a senior Trump campaign official who spoke to the US president has told CBS.

"Yes, the president will speak tonight. Even if it's not to declare victory, he needs to set the narrative," the official said.

Trump will deliver remarks from the White House East Room, the official added.

A number of senior advisers say there is frustration over Democratic talk of the "red mirage" - referring to the idea that the early projections of Trump winning in some states are misleading because they don't yet include postal ballots, which tend to lean towards Democrats. (Red is the colour of the Republicans).

There's a sense that the US president cannot lose hold of tonight's story, the official says.
