Bestselling author Don Winslow says President Donald Trump will attempt an “October surprise†against former Vice President Joe Biden in a desperate attempt to swing the election.
“It will be big, loud and another lie,†Winslow predicted in a new video. “And if history is any indicator, it will be widely covered by the media without any vetting.â€Â
Winslow said it was one of three “cards†Trump will play in the final days of the campaign because he won’t be able to run on his record. Â
“Trump can’t run on the economy because he’s destroyed it,†Winslow said. “And he cannot run on his response to the coronavirus because it is a disaster with 150,000 dead.â€Â
With no accomplishments to promote, Trump will instead attempt to play three cards, including the surprise attack on Biden.Â

Winslow, a former private investigator, has long been known for his page-turning crime novels. But in recent years, he’s become a prominent Trump critic. In 2017, Winslow took out a full-page ad for his book “The Force†that was essentially a lengthy attack on Trump and then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions for their “War on Drugsâ€-type policies that Winslow said disproportionately impacted people of color.Â
And after the release of his book “The Border†last year, Winslow challenged Trump to a debate on the border wall.
“Any show. Any anchor. Any time,†Winslow tweeted. “You debated 18 Republicans during your presidential campaign, I am sure you can handle one writer.â€Â
