Trump just confirmed every Republican's worst fear

[whitehall]

Did the freaking radical left just find out that you will either win or lose an election? How many cherry picked Trump sentences can the left digest without exploding?

 

[owebo]

Isn't that the truth of the matter? The same can be said of every candidate. They run on the issues and either win or lose. There can only be one winner. Oh wait! I just remembered! It's Thursday!! It's a new day to make a big deal about nothing. Lets pump this one up!!

Wonder what Friday will bring?!!

So tedious

I imagine defending Trump is getting tedious.

Defending the truth is never tedious.

I don't know about that. Discussion with right wingers can get pretty tedious.

I can imagine googling the words you don't understand must be quite taxing.

The words aren't a problem. Their reasoning ability is pretty unusual though.

Hitlerys words are a problem, because they are all lies....

Donald Trump told CNBC on Thursday he will either win with his frank and uncensored style of campaigning or enjoy a "very, very nice long vacation."

Republicans have long hoped Trump will pivot on his behavior, but in the "Squawk Box" interview, he said:

"I'm a truth teller. All I do is tell the truth. And if at the end of 90 days, I've fallen short because I'm somewhat politically correct even though I'm supposed to be the smart one and even though I'm supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it's OK. I go back to a very good way of life."

A string of unfavorable poll numbers and growing opposition from within his own party's congressional membership have made Republicans increasingly nervous that they have toxic nominee on their hands that could endanger the party's future.

More: Trump just confirmed every Republican’s worst fear

Sounds like Trump is laying the foundation for his ultimate defeat. Trump: "I'm a truth teller. All I do is tell the truth." Actually, it's rare that Trump ever tells the truth. Damn, he is really deranged.

There is nothing wrong with Trump's style. The problem is with a poorly organized campaign. The Clinton campaign is using a strategy devised by James Carville for Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign. The Clintons had so much baggage about infidelity and corruption following them from Arkansas, that Carville realized if voters had a chance to think about it, they would never vote for Clinton, so Carville put together a rapid response team that had only one job, capture the news cycle everyday by launching attacks on Clinton's accusers before they have a chance to attack Clinton to drown out anything that voters might not like about Clinton. Under Carville's direction, the Clinton campaign never answered the substance of the accusation, but only attacked the character and personality of the accuser.

Hillary Clinton's campaign is very successfully using the Carville trick of avoiding answering substantial questions about her history or positions on issues by having her rapid response team issue attacks on Trump's personality or character rather than the substance of what he is saying because her campaign understands that if voters have a chance to think about her long, long history of corruption and incompetence, they won't vote for her, so rather than answer the substance of issues raised, her campaign launches personal attacks on anyone who raises these issues.

For example, Trump accuses Hillary of wanting to limit second amendment rights and urges gun owners to organize to prevent a justice Hillary might appoint to do just that. Hillary, who changes her position on gun rights according to what audience she is addressing, doesn't want to take a strong position on Trump's accusation, so instead of answering the substance of Trump's charge, her rapid response team puts up the bizarre accusation that Trump asked gun owners to kill Clinton.

So why did this bizarre accusation by the Clinton campaign and other ridiculous accusations, such as Trump throwing a baby out of a rally, get so much play in the MSM? Because while Clinton and Obama have cultivated excellent relationships with the press, early in his campaign, Trump got into angry quarrels with them so Hillary's campaign has journalists who will accept any sort of nonsense her campaign puts out and never ask her for a substantial response on any issue, Trump has no such relationships with the press. It doesn't matter if Trump was right or wrong in his quarrels with the press, what matters is that the MSM media will give play to almost any characterization of Trump Hillary's campaign sends to them and almost no one in the MSM will give any play to the substance of what Trump says.

I see exactly what you mean. Trump insulted and belittled the press in such childish and unnecessary ways till they are not likely to let his dumb remarks pass, so every time he says something really dumb, they mention it. At the same time, Hillary isn't ignoring those same dumb remarks of his, like Trump had hoped she would do. After all, he's rich and people never called him on his bullshit before. Here's an Idea. Why doesn't Trump just quit saying so many dumb and disgusting things? That way the press or Hillary won't be able to point them out. Problem solved.

No, clearly you don't see anything but blue and red, but that's apparently all you need to know before you vote.

Sadly, it's come to that point. I really miss the time when the GOP still had integrity, and cared more about the country than they did about their party. Back then, my vote was republican as often as it was Democrat.

you've almost got it. finish thinking it through you'll realize that at any given time the news media is only focused on what he says, and even though so many are against him, creatures of habit are creatures of habit. the people are addicted, might as well be smoking crack. this is trump's election, even if he loses he still wins, or do you really think he'll have less wealth and power after november?

It was also true that the media talked about nothing but what Trump said during the primaries because what he said was often so provocative, and that worked out ok for him, however, the Clinton campaign's very successful efforts to put their, often bizarre, spin on what Trump says is working against him because Clinton's spin on Trump is even more outrageous than what Trump says and since Trump has such a poor relationship with the press, her spin hits the news before the substance of his speech does.

Repeating what he said word for word is hardly spin.

I'm not sure how many, but he seems to have an endless supply of stupid remarks.

Sadly, it's come to that point. I really miss the time when the GOP still had integrity, and cared more about the country than they did about their party. Back then, my vote was republican as often as it was Democrat.

Well, today Trump has clear plans for stopping illegal immigration and deporting illegals who are already here while Clinton has issued an invitation for anyone south of the border to come to the US with the promise she will make them citizens.

Trump has laid out clear plans to rescue the children of poor families from having to attend failed, violent schools by offering a federal school voucher program while Clinton has no plans to help the children of poor families.

Trump has laid out clear plans to protect US jobs by renegotiating NAFTA or withdrawing from it and going back to bilateral trade agreements that the US had before the Clintons sent our jobs south with NAFTA, but Clinton won't declare a position on how to protect US jobs because she needs the Hispanic vote.

Trump has made it clear he will not endanger US citizens by allowing refugees from war torn areas of Syria and Iraq to come here unless until a better way of vetting people from these areas can be found to assure us they are not terrorists. Both Comey and Clapper have said there simply isn't enough information available to do this now. Clinton thinks all this concern about the safety of Americans is excessive.

Trump will quickly create new, good paying jobs for America, instead of the part time jobs Obama is so proud of creating, by allowing oil exploration on government lands and allowing the Keystone pipeline. Hillary apparently has not gotten around to thinking about these things yet.

Trump will force European deadbeat nations to pay their fair share of NATO dues and other costs, but Hillary sees nothing wrong with the US being one of only five NATO nations to pay their full dues or with the US ponying up the money to provide 73% of NATO's military force despite the fact the Europeans have more money and are more populous than the US.

But you see only red and blue.

So why did this bizarre accusation by the Clinton campaign and other ridiculous accusations, such as Trump throwing a baby out of a rally, get so much play in the MSM? Because while Clinton and Obama have cultivated excellent relationships with the press, early in his campaign, Trump got into angry quarrels with them so Hillary's campaign has journalists who will accept any sort of nonsense her campaign puts out and never ask her for a substantial response on any issue, Trump has no such relationships with the press. It doesn't matter if Trump was right or wrong in his quarrels with the press, what matters is that the MSM media will give play to almost any characterization of Trump Hillary's campaign sends to them and almost no one in the MSM will give any play to the substance of what Trump says.

I see exactly what you mean. Trump insulted and belittled the press in such childish and unnecessary ways till they are not likely to let his dumb remarks pass, so every time he says something really dumb, they mention it. At the same time, Hillary isn't ignoring those same dumb remarks of his, like Trump had hoped she would do. After all, he's rich and people never called him on his bullshit before. Here's an Idea. Why doesn't Trump just quit saying so many dumb and disgusting things? That way the press or Hillary won't be able to point them out. Problem solved.

you've almost got it. finish thinking it through you'll realize that at any given time the news media is only focused on what he says, and even though so many are against him, creatures of habit are creatures of habit. the people are addicted, might as well be smoking crack. this is trump's election, even if he loses he still wins, or do you really think he'll have less wealth and power after november?

It was also true that the media talked about nothing but what Trump said during the primaries because what he said was often so provocative, and that worked out ok for him, however, the Clinton campaign's very successful efforts to put their, often bizarre, spin on what Trump says is working against him because Clinton's spin on Trump is even more outrageous than what Trump says and since Trump has such a poor relationship with the press, her spin hits the news before the substance of his speech does.

Repeating what he said word for word is hardly spin.

Your post is a perfect example of the kind of spin Hillary's campaign is offering instead of addressing the substance of the issues facing America.

If you say so.

Donald Trump told CNBC on Thursday he will either win with his frank and uncensored style of campaigning or enjoy a "very, very nice long vacation."

Republicans have long hoped Trump will pivot on his behavior, but in the "Squawk Box" interview, he said:

"I'm a truth teller. All I do is tell the truth. And if at the end of 90 days, I've fallen short because I'm somewhat politically correct even though I'm supposed to be the smart one and even though I'm supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it's OK. I go back to a very good way of life."

A string of unfavorable poll numbers and growing opposition from within his own party's congressional membership have made Republicans increasingly nervous that they have toxic nominee on their hands that could endanger the party's future.

More: Trump just confirmed every Republican’s worst fear

Sounds like Trump is laying the foundation for his ultimate defeat. Trump: "I'm a truth teller. All I do is tell the truth." Actually, it's rare that Trump ever tells the truth. Damn, he is really deranged.

Agreed...he is deranged.

And so is Hillary.

And you are a worthless prick.

There is nothing wrong with Trump's style. The problem is with a poorly organized campaign. The Clinton campaign is using a strategy devised by James Carville for Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign. The Clintons had so much baggage about infidelity and corruption following them from Arkansas, that Carville realized if voters had a chance to think about it, they would never vote for Clinton, so Carville put together a rapid response team that had only one job, capture the news cycle everyday by launching attacks on Clinton's accusers before they have a chance to attack Clinton to drown out anything that voters might not like about Clinton. Under Carville's direction, the Clinton campaign never answered the substance of the accusation, but only attacked the character and personality of the accuser.

Hillary Clinton's campaign is very successfully using the Carville trick of avoiding answering substantial questions about her history or positions on issues by having her rapid response team issue attacks on Trump's personality or character rather than the substance of what he is saying because her campaign understands that if voters have a chance to think about her long, long history of corruption and incompetence, they won't vote for her, so rather than answer the substance of issues raised, her campaign launches personal attacks on anyone who raises these issues.

For example, Trump accuses Hillary of wanting to limit second amendment rights and urges gun owners to organize to prevent a justice Hillary might appoint to do just that. Hillary, who changes her position on gun rights according to what audience she is addressing, doesn't want to take a strong position on Trump's accusation, so instead of answering the substance of Trump's charge, her rapid response team puts up the bizarre accusation that Trump asked gun owners to kill Clinton.

No, clearly you don't see anything but blue and red, but that's apparently all you need to know before you vote.

Sadly, it's come to that point. I really miss the time when the GOP still had integrity, and cared more about the country than they did about their party. Back then, my vote was republican as often as it was Democrat.

Well, today Trump has clear plans for stopping illegal immigration and deporting illegals who are already here while Clinton has issued an invitation for anyone south of the border to come to the US with the promise she will make them citizens.

Trump has laid out clear plans to rescue the children of poor families from having to attend failed, violent schools by offering a federal school voucher program while Clinton has no plans to help the children of poor families.

Trump has laid out clear plans to protect US jobs by renegotiating NAFTA or withdrawing from it and going back to bilateral trade agreements that the US had before the Clintons sent our jobs south with NAFTA, but Clinton won't declare a position on how to protect US jobs because she needs the Hispanic vote.

Trump has made it clear he will not endanger US citizens by allowing refugees from war torn areas of Syria and Iraq to come here unless until a better way of vetting people from these areas can be found to assure us they are not terrorists. Both Comey and Clapper have said there simply isn't enough information available to do this now. Clinton thinks all this concern about the safety of Americans is excessive.

Trump will quickly create new, good paying jobs for America, instead of the part time jobs Obama is so proud of creating, by allowing oil exploration on government lands and allowing the Keystone pipeline. Hillary apparently has not gotten around to thinking about these things yet.

Trump will force European deadbeat nations to pay their fair share of NATO dues and other costs, but Hillary sees nothing wrong with the US being one of only five NATO nations to pay their full dues or with the US ponying up the money to provide 73% of NATO's military force despite the fact the Europeans have more money and are more populous than the US.

But you see only red and blue.

Breaking trade agreements and trying to be a school yard bully with our allies isn't the best way to help our country.

Yes.....it probably isn't.

But sucking on their balls the way Hillary and Obama have has not worked either.

 

[Rustic]

With Trump there is no mistaking what he is about. That is refreshing to say the least. An example, Obama promising that he would support the military during the last election. During his administration these past four years the military budget has been cut, the families of the military suffer greatly due to cuts and the military has lost its way now they are more concerned if someone is satisfied with their sex than national defense.

Who cut the military budget? Paul Ryan? The House controls the purse strings.

The house is full of progressives

 

[Borillar]

The Republican's just got hit with more bad news from Trump. Speaking to 4th graders today in a science class in Orlando, FL he told the students that if they throw a rock into the air, the law of gravity will bring it back down to earth. He's really preparing the Republican's for his eventual fall. Not looking good at all.

Good for him for finally getting something correct.

Gravity is just a theory. I'm sure oil companies will have a group of scientists with differing opinions to publish their report soon.

In other scientific news, the Shell answer man said that the world is flat and supported by turtles all the way down.

The "Shell answer man"? That's hilarious! I haven't heard that in a long time. Like me, I assume you have some age on you...

Yeah, I'm a semi old fart, having just retired last year. I remembered those old Shell commercials from the 60's. The Shell answer man is my representation of oil company funded climate change denial. The same sort of BS the tobacco companies used to pass off as science - saying shit like 9 out of 10 doctors recommend Lucky Strikes when all the time it was causing lung cancer.

Renegotiating or withdrawing from trade agreement that drain American jobs is precisely the way to help America, but Hillary can't even consider taking a fresh look at trade agreements because it might cost her some Hispanic votes. And insisting that deadbeat European "allies" pay their fair share of NATO's costs isn't bullying.
The difference between Trump and Clinton is Trump is willing to take a fresh look at everything and the only thing Hillary ever thinks about is how to get more votes for herself.

He needs to take a fresh look in the mirror:
Donald Trump Should Change Tack Or Drop Out: Wall Street Journal
Republican Donald Trump should fix his stumbling White House campaign by Labor Day or step down, The Wall Street Journal said on Monday in a sharply worded warning from a leading conservative voice.

“Mr. Trump has alienated his party and he isn’t running a competent campaign,” the newspaper said in an editorial.

The paper’s editorial board, which generally favors Republicans, has been critical of Trump but its warning on Monday was its strongest attack yet and echoed growing anxiety among many Republicans over the state of Trump’s campaign.

 

[BlueGin]

Things are going from bad to worse with Trump.

At one of his rallies today he said that TPP would cost us an arm and a leg. No where in the TPP does it say that we'd have to be dismembered to pay for it!! Trump lies!!!!

Yet he wants to borrow more money from Asia and increase the debt. How awesome is that!

Maybe he will actually find the 7 billion dollars Obama misplaced.

Keep in mind Trump ran against the Republican establishment in the primaries and beat them with his straight talking campaign style. He will continue telling the people exactly what he intends to do despite the objections from the people he defeated in the primaries. The Clinton machine has put together a very well organized slick campaign with Hillary reading speeches that were written for her from a teleprompter and a well rehearsed delivery style while Trump talks directly to the people with not focus groups or image consultants telling him what to say. In this respect, he is a lot like Harry Truman, who also alienated the establishment of his party and the press.

Trump hammers away on the issues while Hillary's speech writers skirt them. We know what Trump will do about the serious issues if he wins and we know Hillary has no plans to do anything on the serious issues if she wins. As the campaigns progress we will see if voters will demand more substance on the issues from Hillary and from the media.

 

[Liminal]

Isn't that the truth of the matter? The same can be said of every candidate. They run on the issues and either win or lose. There can only be one winner. Oh wait! I just remembered! It's Thursday!! It's a new day to make a big deal about nothing. Lets pump this one up!!

Wonder what Friday will bring?!!

So tedious

Maybe we could also continue to pretend that Donald Trump is a real candidate for President.

Trump did beat all those other republican hopefuls quite easily, but he fails to realize that the things that caused him to excel in the primaries don't really help him in the general. Republicans have been demanding someone just like Trump for a long time. The rest of the country prefers someone who is sane.
