Certain that
Hi teachers,
That applies, of course, to an incumbent who’s watching sagging approval ratings and a soaring unemployment rate certain that he faces significant challenges in securing a second term
1. Is the "who's watching sagging....rate" a relative clause?
2. Can this "who's watching sagging...rate" be reduced so it would read like the following:
That applies, of course, to an incumbent certain that he faces significant challenges in securing a second term.
Thanks
