Trump campaign touts ‘Trump Force 47’ grassroots recruitment effort 100 days out from Election Day

First appeared on FOX: With just 100 days until the November election, former President Trump’s campaign is formulating its general election strategy, launching a social media onslaught and encouraging his supporters to join “Trump Force 47,” a grassroots effort to recruit new voters.

The Trump campaign has launched a new grassroots organizing program called Trump Force 47, Fox News Digital has learned.

The campaign said the program is focused on mobilizing “targeted voters in key battleground states and districts” and already has tens of thousands of volunteers on board.

“Trump Force 47 is so effective because it takes traditional voter outreach tactics a step further by equipping voters with the skills to convince their neighbors to vote for President Trump,” Caroline Leavitt, national spokesperson for the Trump campaign, told Fox News Digital. “With 100 days until Election Day, the Trump campaign is ready to put the historic enthusiasm for President Trump into action by signing up thousands of new volunteers who are ready to Make America Great Again.”

The campaign told Fox News Digital that “Trump Force 47” builds on a strategy it had developed early in state primaries of organizing volunteers at the precinct level, with each volunteer working to recruit a specific number of target voters.

Trump Force 47’s website describes it as “an official army of volunteer community activists working together to defeat Kamala Harris and the far-left liberal Democrats.”

Potential volunteers can sign up to do activities such as targeting voters in their neighborhoods, making phone calls to targeted voters, participating in poll watching, becoming a “Trump Captain,” hosting a “Trump House Party” or delivering yard signs to neighbors.

“Securing these votes is critical to President Trump and other Republicans’ victory in November,” the Trump campaign said.

Meanwhile, the campaign is focusing on themes repeated at the Republican National Committee meeting earlier this month, including “Make America Safe Again,” “Make America Strong Again” and “Make America Great Again.”

Trump campaign claims it is ‘favorably positioned’ to pursue lawsuit against Kamala Harris

The Trump campaign has released new graphics and ads touting the former president’s record and his plan to “keep winning” against Vice President Harris.

The new voter strategy was announced after former President Trump formally became the Republican presidential nominee and Sen. J.D. Vance became the vice presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, earlier this month.

Harris has also garnered endorsements from Biden and other prominent Democratic figures, including former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama, as well as former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Harris also secured the support of a majority of delegates needed to win the Democratic nomination.

However, the official Democratic candidate will not be announced until August 1st.

According to sources familiar with the matter, the change in the top Democratic candidate ranks is not of concern to the Trump campaign.

The Trump campaign told Fox News Digital that it was “fully prepared for every scenario” and that it completed “operational planning months ago.”

“The campaign is not leaving things to chance and is poised to prosecute Kamala Harris as weak, failed, incompetent and dangerously liberal,” a Trump campaign adviser told Fox News Digital.

And this week, in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Trump called Harris a “far-left lunatic.”

“She would destroy our country,” Trump told Fox News Digital. “She doesn’t have what it takes to be president.”
