Economy is the most important issue for the voters. Poll after poll voters put economy as the number 1 issue.

Today on CNN John King quoted recent polls.

Overall around the country Trump beats Clinton on economy by 5%: Trump-50%, Clinton-45%

What is really huge, is the fact that in the North-East, the rust belt, Trump beats her on economy by 25%: Trump- 59%, Clinton-34%

This is extremely important as Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan are the most important swing states.

He is directing, dang, why is everyone still in primary mode? He is running against Hillary and if he is elected, he needs to succeed and not fall on his butt.

Exactly! I think you can take it a step further. I think he is transitioning into the presidency. There is a certainty in his actions as if he already knows something we do not.

“Holy mackerel. He looks like death.”

Hillary has had a lot of coughing attacks and cannot hide them. So who dies first? Hillary or Bill.

For example, Trump has a woman problem.

Or do women have a Melania problem?

Just asking...

OMG He looks like he is ready to change residency. I pray that he repents because from the story he told about his near death experience in the past is not good.

WOW just WOW!

Clinton holds the power. How? She’s got the “goods” on her competitors, and will not hesitate to use it. I seem to recall her saying, a while back, that if she goes down, she’ll go scorched earth and bring’em all down.

That would be great, but in reality, I don’t think her competitors have the moral core to stand up to her.

For someone who only hires "the best", Trump sure has a lot of relatives "the best" at running campaigns.

I am old enough to remember when John Kennedy filled his administration with brothers and in-laws. There is precedent.

Trump may say he hires only "the best", but there is an old engineer's saying that "better" is the enemy of "good enough". And, in this case "best" is also the enemy of "good enough".

The most valuable resource he has is his own time. If he can fill top spots with people he knows and trusts without spending days and weeks on the selection he can better fight the main battle. All he really has to do is be better than Hillary, who does not even have a transition team head yet. And it would be very presumptuous of her to appoint one.

Think about Trump's accomplishment for a minute. A few months ago Hillary was considered to the the presumptive nominee of the RATs and Donald was just one of the crowd. That has completely turned around and she is fighting Bernie tooth and nail while Donald basks in the sunlight of the winner's circle.

Sooner or later the RAT nominee is going to have a transition team head and Donald will characterize it as a "me too" move.

yes, as series of Hilary cackles, some of her coughing fits, and ending in the “ARF ARF ARF” she did a few months ago..... there is a great viral video waiting to be made.....

maybe with a sequence of captions showing her “greatest hits” of bad judgment calls, malfeasance, etc.

If Hillary really had the "goods" on anyone she would have used them when Obola schlonged her in 2008. The further we get from Bill's Presidency, the less powerful any information she has becomes.

I always figured the Chicago Mob checkmated any potential Clinton revelations with knowledge of Arkancides.

The Clintons were unable to use their vaunted private detective operation to expose Baraq’s bogus life story.

Mutually assured destruction....

I think she did try with Obama. DJT said it actually was Hillary who originally brought up the birther issue.

Nevertheless, I hope you are right!

You know what I notice most about this photo?

Hillary’s smirk is the same as Jeb Bush’s smirk.

Are those pic of Bill and Hill real, non photoshopped images? Anything can be made to look worse than real life but if they are genuine, then they both have more problems than running for White House occupancy.

I think we’ve found Dorian Gray’s portrait.

Maybe Bill took a quick peek.
