His is the lone voice speaking out against the tide of political correctness that is flooding our nation. They just can't stand one single voice speaking out against them, that they cannot silence.
This is so, well said Joe, and true imo. It's the puppet-masters worst nightmare, a man without strings they can pull
A Wall Street Journal article puts a new face on recent changes in Trump's campaign, one that seems more reasonable than the media spin, which would have us believe that he is simply trying one thing after another, and failing to run an effective campaign. After winning the primary and the Republican nomination, Trump hire an establishment campaign manager and began running a more traditional campaign, which wasn't working well because, for one thing, he's not a traditional candidate and, for another, the media will not report the positive when it comes to Trump's campaign. Instead, according to this article, he is taking control of his campaign again, determined to run it his way. It's actually a pretty positive articles, which is not what I would expect from the WSJ.
He does need to change something, he will lose if he doesn't. Too many Republicans are not endorsing him, he doesn't have the vote of the Cruz supporters. I read somewhere yesterday that many top republicans aren't voting for him...Laura Bush said she's voting Hillary. Has this ever happened before? Usually candidates at least get the vote of the party they represent...no? They have to sway the independents usually. Or am I wrong? Where there many republicans voting for Obama last election? In the article you posted, I feel the same way that Theodore Wight does in the comment section. He needs to speak clearly and know exactly what he will say and that it can't be interpreted different ways by the media and his opponents. He's making it very easy for the media to portray him as they do. After every controversial remark of his, a few more Republicans come out against him. Do the math, if the election was today....could he win? This is how I think I'm on his side....
The Republicans who aren't supporting him are not Republicans in the sense that they want Republicans to win. While they were in control of the Republican Party, it didn't matter whether the Republican or the Democrat won because they were both following the same agenda. These are people who may actually prefer to have the Republican Party in the minority because it's a lot easier to run against something than to be in control of it.
But it's still a numbers game, no matter what you want to call them. Are there many democrats that will vote for Trump? If you know... I'm really talking about the numbers and what it takes to win. Maybe some cRuz supporters will change their mind at the last minute but I know some won't.
I think you will find a lot more will vote for Trump but will not tell anyone. The rallies and the private polls are all indicating he has about an 80% following
Cruz isn't polling very well in Texas right now. He's running close behind the Democrat and, in a theoretical face-off against Rick Perry, who has apparently suggested he might challenge him for his senate seat, he's losing. His unfavorables are very high among Republicans. This election year is far different than any other, so it's hard to know how it's going to go. In 1972, McGovern didn't have the backing of the leadership in his own party, and he only won Massachusetts and the District of Columbia in the general. He's the reason the Democrats came up with their super delegates.
After the GOP Convention and the first couple of days of the Democrat Convention, Trump was ahead in most polls. Although that was reported, it was barely reported and seldom repeated by the media. Instead, the media decided to hype the Gold Star father who seemed to be blaming Trump for his son's death twenty years ago, and insanely hyping up Trump's response. He then went down in the polls, but only the ones that showed him down a lot were reported, and they have been reported repeatedly. The LA Times (hardly a Trump organ) keeps track of how the two candidates are doing and, as of today, this is what they show.
As we know the news media does lie. Trump to win by 87% this is from a man who has never been wrong so far Politico science professor Helmut Norpoth http://www.prisonplanet.com/political-science-prof-trump-has-87-of-winning-the-election.html
I don't usually believe polls, I'm just going by what individual people are saying. Of course that might be a lie also. Maybe Trump will win by a landslide. In public the ones that say they can't vote for a racist idiot in private will vote for him. Politicians want to be perceived as PC but in private they are different for the most part.
My fear is this. There is going to be cheating, and as long as the results roughly correspond to the polls, no one is going to believe that the election was rigged. Therefore, it would make sense for them to first rig the polls. If the polls show Trump way ahead, and Hillary wins, people will take allegations of cheating seriously, but if they show Hillary ahead or even neck-and-neck, there will be those of us who believe it was unfair, but the allegations won't have any legs; just another crazy conspiracy theory.
