“Over the last few days, I’m not surprised to see people running for the hills,” talk show host John Phillips, an outspoken Trump backer, said on CNN.

“The last 72 hours for Donald Trump have been the political equivalent of Chris Farley’s final 72 hours on planet Earth.”

Farley, a star on “Saturday Night Live” and big-screen hits such as “Tommy Boy” and “Black Sheep,” died at age 33 after a drug overdose.

Trump’s poll numbers have plummeted in the last week in the wake of several controversies. Among them, the businessman attacked the Muslim family of a U.S. soldier killed in the Iraq War.

“Look, Rudy Giuliani and Newt Gingrich say they’re planning an intervention. Sign me up,” joked Phillips, a CNN contributor.

“I’ll bring Dr. Drew, the burlap sack and the station wagon, because this guy needs to get back on track.”

Trump led the RealClearPolitics polling average by about 1 point on July 27. Today, Clinton leads by nearly 6 points.
