The War on Donald Trump

[westwall]

Piers Morgan just pointed out that TODAYS New York Times has six (6) negative news stories, five (5) negative letters, and two (2) negative opinion pieces.

I think the ONLY news outlets (TV, Cable, Online) that covers him positively is Breitbart and Drudge. Maybe Rush? (I don't listen to Rush)

If Trump pulls this off in November it will be unprecedented. No where in the history (that I'm aware of) has a candidate come under such massive fire from literally every direction on the globe and lived to talk about it.

Not to mention the millions Clinton is spending in battleground states on negative ads.

This is like watching a mob of tens of thousands gang up on ONE guy

It's really a glorious time to be alive to witness this. This will go down in history and if he wins.....fuggeta bout it. I think the left and his opposition will suffer strokes from disbelief

Before pushing away from the keyboard I have to say one thing about the Outraged-by-Trump Industry. It's bordering on absurdity at this point, but goddamn if it isn't entertaining.

I agree. And, add to that Colberts constant attacks on the man and you have a wholesale assault on him. And, it is having the opposite effect to what they want. They are only making him stronger. As the people see this attack they are thinking to themselves "well....if everyone in the ESTABLISHMENT hates him, maybe he's the guy for me". A well known socialist here in Reno Jake Highton actually wrote a piece for the Reno News and Review explaining why he, Highton, a Sanders supporter, was going to vote for trump.

So per you, its just a grand coincidence that the gold star families have demanded an apology from Trump? That Latino groups have condemned Trump? That even fellow republicans have refused to support him? That Muslim Americans have condemned Trump? That former military leaders have condemned Trump? That veteran groups and the VFW have criticized Trump?

That all of this happened in a complete vaccum in response to absolutely nothing?

So riddle me this.....who, more so than Trump, is responsible for Trump's bad press?

Not at all. Where oh where have you ever heard me say I like trump? I think he's an ass. However, if it were a choice between her and him, I would choose him because while he IS an ass, he's not a proven threat to the USA as she is. Thank the heavens I have two others to choose from.

Nonsense.

Trump has only himself to blame; he is his own worst enemy, not ‘the media.’

 

[Sonny Clark]

Explain this.

Trump has said or done dozens of things that would tank anyone else's candidacy.

Why is he still standing?

Yeah, and 74% of America thinks Hillary is a liar, so whys she still standing?

She has lied. Like a politician lies.

Trump lies like a sociopath lies.

I'll take the politician.

She didn't just lie and promise free steak dinners every Sunday.

Trump says whatever comes to his mind. Sometimes he's the crazy old guy yelling at kids to get off his lawn. Hillary is a pathological creature bent upon the destruction of America as we've known it for centuries while making herself a fortune.

Then explain how her husband ran a very successful presidency... Funny way of being 'bent upon the destruction of America'....

This is main problem with your conspiracy theory, it is bullshit when faced with facts...


The Clinton Presidency: A Historic Era of Progress and Prosperity

• Longest economic expansion in American history
  The President's strategy of fiscal discipline, open foreign markets and investments in the American people helped create the conditions for a record 115 months of economic expansion. Our economy has grown at an average of 4 percent per year since 1993.
  
  
  
  
• More than 22 million new jobs
  More than 22 million jobs were created in less than eight years -- the most ever under a single administration, and more than were created in the previous twelve years.
  
  
  
  
• Highest homeownership in American history
  A strong economy and fiscal discipline kept interest rates low, making it possible for more families to buy homes. The homeownership rate increased from 64.2 percent in 1992 to 67. 7 percent, the highest rate ever.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest unemployment in 30 years
  Unemployment dropped from more than 7 percent in 1993 to just 4.0 percent in November 2000. Unemployment for African Americans and Hispanics fell to the lowest rates on record, and the rate for women is the lowest in more than 40 years.
  
  
  
  
• Raised education standards, increased school choice, and doubled education and training investment
  Since 1992, reading and math scores have increased for 4th, 8th, and 12th graders, math SAT scores are at a 30-year high, the number of charter schools has grown from 1 to more than 2,000, forty-nine states have put in place standards in core subjects and federal investment in education and training has doubled.
  
  
  
  
• Largest expansion of college opportunity since the GI Bill
  President Clinton and Vice President Gore have nearly doubled financial aid for students by increasing Pell Grants to the largest award ever, expanding Federal Work-Study to allow 1 million students to work their way through college, and by creating new tax credits and scholarships such as Lifetime Learning tax credits and the HOPE scholarship. At the same time, taxpayers have saved $18 billion due to the decline in student loan defaults, increased collections and savings from the direct student loan program.
  
  
  
  
• Connected 95 percent of schools to the Internet
  President Clinton and Vice President Gore's new commitment to education technology, including the E-Rate and a 3,000 percent increase in educational technology funding, increased the percentage of schools connected to the Internet from 35 percent in 1994 to 95 percent in 1999.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest crime rate in 26 years
  Because of President Clinton's comprehensive anti-crime strategy of tough penalties, more police, and smart prevention, as well as common sense gun safety laws, the overall crime rate declined for 8 consecutive years, the longest continuous drop on record, and is at the lowest level since 1973.
  
  
  
  
• 100,000 more police for our streets
  As part of the 1994 Crime Bill, President Clinton enacted a new initiative to fund 100,000 community police officers. To date more than 11,000 law enforcement agencies have received COPS funding.
  
  
  
  
• Enacted most sweeping gun safety legislation in a generation
  Since the President signed the Brady bill in 1993, more than 600,000 felons, fugitives, and other prohibited persons have been stopped from buying guns. Gun crime has declined 40 percent since 1992.
  
  
  
  
• Family and Medical Leave Act for 20 million Americans
  To help parents succeed at work and at home, President Clinton signed the Family and Medical Leave Act in 1993. Over 20 million Americans have taken unpaid leave to care for a newborn child or sick family member.
  
  
  
  
• Smallest welfare rolls in 32 years
  The President pledged to end welfare as we know it and signed landmark bipartisan welfare reform legislation in 1996. Since then, caseloads have been cut in half, to the lowest level since 1968, and millions of parents have joined the workforce. People on welfare today are five times more likely to be working than in 1992.
  
  
  
  
• Higher incomes at all levels
  After falling by nearly $2,000 between 1988 and 1992, the median family's income rose by $6,338, after adjusting for inflation, since 1993. African American family income increased even more, rising by nearly $7,000 since 1993. After years of stagnant income growth among average and lower income families, all income brackets experienced double-digit growth since 1993. The bottom 20 percent saw the largest income growth at 16.3 percent.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest poverty rate in 20 years
  Since Congress passed President Clinton's Economic Plan in 1993, the poverty rate declined from 15.1 percent to 11.8 percent last year — the largest six-year drop in poverty in nearly 30 years. There are now 7 million fewer people in poverty than in 1993. The child poverty rate declined more than 25 percent, the poverty rates for single mothers, African Americans and the elderly have dropped to their lowest levels on record, and Hispanic poverty dropped to its lowest level since 1979.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest teen birth rate in 60 years
  In his 1995 State of the Union Address, President Clinton challenged Americans to join together in a national campaign against teen pregnancy. The birth rate for teens aged 15-19 declined every year of the Clinton Presidency, from 60.7 per 1,000 teens in 1992 to a record low of 49.6 in 1999.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest infant mortality rate in American history
  The Clinton Administration expanded efforts to provide mothers and newborn children with health care. Today, a record high 82 percent of all mothers receive prenatal care. The infant mortality rate has dropped from 8.5 deaths per 1,000 in 1992 to 7.2 deaths per 1,000 in 1998, the lowest rate ever recorded.
  
  
  
  
• Deactivated more than 1,700 nuclear warheads from the former Soviet Union
  Efforts of the Clinton-Gore Administration led to the dismantling of more than 1,700 nuclear warheads, 300 launchers and 425 land and submarine based missiles from the former Soviet Union.
  
  
  
  
• Protected millions of acres of American land
  President Clinton has protected more land in the lower 48 states than any other president. He has protected 5 new national parks, designated 11 new national monuments and expanded two others and proposed protections for 60 million acres of roadless areas in America's national forests.
  
  
  
  
• Paid off $360 billion of the national debt
  Between 1998-2000, the national debt was reduced by $363 billion — the largest three-year debt pay-down in American history. We are now on track to pay off the entire debt by 2009.
  
  
  
  
• Converted the largest budget deficit in American history to the largest surplus
  Thanks in large part to the 1993 Deficit Reduction Act, the 1997 Balanced Budget Act, and President Clinton's call to save the surplus for debt reduction, Social Security, and Medicare solvency, America has put its fiscal house in order. The deficit was $290 billion in 1993 and expected to grow to $455 billion by this year. Instead, we have a projected surplus of $237 billion.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest government spending in three decades
  Under President Clinton federal government spending as a share of the economy has decreased from 22.2 percent in 1992 to a projected 18.5 percent in 2000, the lowest since 1966.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest federal income tax burden in 35 years
  President Clinton enacted targeted tax cuts such as the Earned Income Tax Credit expansion, $500 child tax credit, and the HOPE Scholarship and Lifetime Learning Tax Credits. Federal income taxes as a percentage of income for the typical American family have dropped to their lowest level in 35 years.
  
  
  
  
• More families own stock than ever before
  The number of families owning stock in the United States increased by 40 percent since 1992.
  
  
  
  
• Most diverse cabinet in American history
  The President has appointed more African Americans, women and Hispanics to the Cabinet than any other President in history. He appointed the first female Attorney General, the first female Secretary of State and the first Asian American cabinet secretary ever.

Care to link to all the Trump bashing prior to him locking down the nomination? There aren't any. The media selected him to win because he is weak so Hillary stood a choice.

You lefties sure love cheating in elections. Just ask Bernie.

  President Clinton and Vice President Gore's new commitment to education technology, including the E-Rate and a 3,000 percent increase in educational technology funding, increased the percentage of schools connected to the Internet from 35 percent in 1994 to 95 percent in 1999.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest crime rate in 26 years
  Because of President Clinton's comprehensive anti-crime strategy of tough penalties, more police, and smart prevention, as well as common sense gun safety laws, the overall crime rate declined for 8 consecutive years, the longest continuous drop on record, and is at the lowest level since 1973.
  
  
  
  
• 100,000 more police for our streets

• Enacted most sweeping gun safety legislation in a generation
  Since the President signed the Brady bill in 1993, more than 600,000 felons, fugitives, and other prohibited persons have been stopped from buying guns. Gun crime has declined 40 percent since 1992.
  
  
  
  
• Family and Medical Leave Act for 20 million Americans
  To help parents succeed at work and at home, President Clinton signed the Family and Medical Leave Act in 1993. Over 20 million Americans have taken unpaid leave to care for a newborn child or sick family member.
  
  
  
  
• Smallest welfare rolls in 32 years
  The President pledged to end welfare as we know it and signed landmark bipartisan welfare reform legislation in 1996. Since then, caseloads have been cut in half, to the lowest level since 1968, and millions of parents have joined the workforce. People on welfare today are five times more likely to be working than in 1992.
  
  
  
  
• Higher incomes at all levels
  After falling by nearly $2,000 between 1988 and 1992, the median family's income rose by $6,338, after adjusting for inflation, since 1993. African American family income increased even more, rising by nearly $7,000 since 1993. After years of stagnant income growth among average and lower income families, all income brackets experienced double-digit growth since 1993. The bottom 20 percent saw the largest income growth at 16.3 percent.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest poverty rate in 20 years
  Since Congress passed President Clinton's Economic Plan in 1993, the poverty rate declined from 15.1 percent to 11.8 percent last year — the largest six-year drop in poverty in nearly 30 years. There are now 7 million fewer people in poverty than in 1993. The child poverty rate declined more than 25 percent, the poverty rates for single mothers, African Americans and the elderly have dropped to their lowest levels on record, and Hispanic poverty dropped to its lowest level since 1979.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest teen birth rate in 60 years
  In his 1995 State of the Union Address, President Clinton challenged Americans to join together in a national campaign against teen pregnancy. The birth rate for teens aged 15-19 declined every year of the Clinton Presidency, from 60.7 per 1,000 teens in 1992 to a record low of 49.6 in 1999.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest infant mortality rate in American history
  The Clinton Administration expanded efforts to provide mothers and newborn children with health care. Today, a record high 82 percent of all mothers receive prenatal care. The infant mortality rate has dropped from 8.5 deaths per 1,000 in 1992 to 7.2 deaths per 1,000 in 1998, the lowest rate ever recorded.
  
  
  
  
• Deactivated more than 1,700 nuclear warheads from the former Soviet Union
  Efforts of the Clinton-Gore Administration led to the dismantling of more than 1,700 nuclear warheads, 300 launchers and 425 land and submarine based missiles from the former Soviet Union.
  
  
  
  
• Protected millions of acres of American land
  President Clinton has protected more land in the lower 48 states than any other president. He has protected 5 new national parks, designated 11 new national monuments and expanded two others and proposed protections for 60 million acres of roadless areas in America's national forests.
  
  
  
  
• Paid off $360 billion of the national debt
  Between 1998-2000, the national debt was reduced by $363 billion — the largest three-year debt pay-down in American history. We are now on track to pay off the entire debt by 2009.
  
  
  
  
• Converted the largest budget deficit in American history to the largest surplus
  Thanks in large part to the 1993 Deficit Reduction Act, the 1997 Balanced Budget Act, and President Clinton's call to save the surplus for debt reduction, Social Security, and Medicare solvency, America has put its fiscal house in order. The deficit was $290 billion in 1993 and expected to grow to $455 billion by this year. Instead, we have a projected surplus of $237 billion.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest government spending in three decades
  Under President Clinton federal government spending as a share of the economy has decreased from 22.2 percent in 1992 to a projected 18.5 percent in 2000, the lowest since 1966.
  
  
  
  
• Lowest federal income tax burden in 35 years

Have you ever heard of a dude named Eckhart Tolle?

I recommend his work for you. It is not too late.

Why?
Too late for what?
Please explain. Thanks.

He's gotten more free publicity and media time than any person to ever run.

What this thread is......is a preemptive excuse for when he loses.

It's the biased media!!!!!

Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

I will bet you don't think the media is biased do you?

Very biased.

The election is no where near as close as they are pretending. HRC is cruising.

No where in the history (that I'm aware of) has a candidate come under such massive fire from literally every direction on the globe and lived to talk about it.

Therefore, you expecting Trump to "pull it off" makes you a fucking idiot. There is no war on Donald Trump. There is merely war Donald Trump brought on himself. And piece of shit lumps of carbon like yourself would well serve everyone to make yourselves casualties and die.

Too far, don't u think?

No, I don't. CK is a raging piece of shit, and seems to get worse with nearly every post he makes. Yesterday he was saying that military personnel who are killed in the line of duty aren't making any sacrifices. Human civilization is lessened by CK's existence.

Meanwhile, there is no war on Donald Trump. There is only war Donald Trump has brought on himself.

Piers Morgan just pointed out that TODAYS New York Times has six (6) negative news stories, five (5) negative letters, and two (2) negative opinion pieces.

I think the ONLY news outlets (TV, Cable, Online) that covers him positively is Breitbart and Drudge. Maybe Rush? (I don't listen to Rush)

If Trump pulls this off in November it will be unprecedented. No where in the history (that I'm aware of) has a candidate come under such massive fire from literally every direction on the globe and lived to talk about it.

Not to mention the millions Clinton is spending in battleground states on negative ads.

This is like watching a mob of tens of thousands gang up on ONE guy

It's really a glorious time to be alive to witness this. This will go down in history and if he wins.....fuggeta bout it. I think the left and his opposition will suffer strokes from disbelief

Before pushing away from the keyboard I have to say one thing about the Outraged-by-Trump Industry. It's bordering on absurdity at this point, but goddamn if it isn't entertaining.

It is pretty obvious which side the media is on. Sad

I agree. And, add to that Colberts constant attacks on the man and you have a wholesale assault on him. And, it is having the opposite effect to what they want. They are only making him stronger. As the people see this attack they are thinking to themselves "well....if everyone in the ESTABLISHMENT hates him, maybe he's the guy for me". A well known socialist here in Reno Jake Highton actually wrote a piece for the Reno News and Review explaining why he, Highton, a Sanders supporter, was going to vote for trump.

So per you, its just a grand coincidence that the gold star families have demanded an apology from Trump? That Latino groups have condemned Trump? That even fellow republicans have refused to support him? That Muslim Americans have condemned Trump? That former military leaders have condemned Trump? That veteran groups and the VFW have criticized Trump?

That all of this happened in a complete vaccum in response to absolutely nothing?

So riddle me this.....who, more so than Trump, is responsible for Trump's bad press?

Not at all. Where oh where have you ever heard me say I like trump? I think he's an ass. However, if it were a choice between her and him, I would choose him because while he IS an ass, he's not a proven threat to the USA as she is. Thank the heavens I have two others to choose from.

I could care less who you're voting for. I'm asking you a remarklably simple question:

Who, more so than Trump, is responsible for Trump's bad press?

Spoiler Alert: No one. The 'war on trump' narrative is a steaming pile of horseshit. Whiny, 'blame everyone else and take responsibilty for nothing' horseshit.

Note that accused rapist Donald Trump is juggling many controversies this past week. Only makes sense that each controversy will get articles and opinion pieces from many reporters/columnists.

 

[Synthaholic]

When is accused rapist Donald Trump going to make news in a positive way?

No doubt the "Liberal Media" will cover that, also. Most likely fawning over "The New Donald".

That would explain all of her pressers. OH!!! WAIT!!!

240 days and counting: Why Hillary won't do press conferences

This kind of sneering condescension by the Clinton campaign — who almost act insulted when the question around having a presser is even asked — was also on full display during a luncheon sponsored by The Wall Street Journal in Philadelphia at the DNC on Wednesday. The Hill's Jonathan Easley was there and described how campaign manager Robby Mook "burst out laughing when asked if Clinton would hold court with members of the media before Election Day."

"We'll see," Mook said.

 

[Snouter]

Indeed, it is the MSM's last stand. They are so over the top now it is hilarious. That is not to say they are not orchestrated. My guess is they began planning their offensive when The Donald first announced he was running. Obviously this is Plan B since they failed to prevent him from winning the primary.
