Trump Jr. to interview president for reelection campaign’s online show ‘Triggered’

President Trump will sit for an interview with his son, Donald Trump Jr., on Thursday night for his reelection campaign’s online show “Triggered,” a source tells The Hill.

The interview marks the first time the president will appear on one of the online shows, which have become a staple of his campaign’s media efforts since the coronavirus lockdown.

The interview comes ahead of the president’s return to the campaign trail on Saturday in Tulsa, Okla., his first rally since March.

Trump’s poll numbers have fallen in recent weeks amid the economic uncertainty from the pandemic and civil unrest following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden leads Trump by 8.1 points in the RealClearPolitics average of national polls with less than five months to go until Election Day.
