Trump would be better off just not saying anything. Let them hang themselves.

Don’t give them any ammo!

Hillary responded to the Cruz non-endorsement, so this is justified.

Not true. Trump is making himself the story even as he narrates the Democrat meltdown. He benefits from the contrast. Every tweet reminds the undecideds that he is ready to restore order to the chaos.

No, Mr. Trump is not giving any ammo at all. Just doing color commentary.

No he would not.

For too long Republicans were told to shut up and take what ever is dished out, and to never say a bad thing about the Democrats.

I wonder if our nation would be in the mess it is in today if we really had an opposition party, one that would go after the Democrats when they were wrong.

There is a time to play nice and a time to attack, and from today until the election, it is a time to attack.

I would have to disagree. Left to their own devices, the Democrat Party, along with a compliant media, would simply take control of the narrative and spin this to their favor.

This is the mistake that previous nominees made. I believe four years ago, Mitt Romney was taking vacation in New Hampshire during the DNC convention. Unfortunately, he was never able to come out of vacation mode.

Why? With the dems in chaos, it gives Trump and his supporters an opening to define hillary and Kaine before they can define themselves.

For most pols, that would be true. In Trump's case, he is forcing them to get tied up in knots, stay off message, and broadcast their disarray in the media instead of allowing the media to ignore/downplay this.

I love the fact that the enemies that Hillary has accumulated are striking back, as the Wikileaks release was not something that Trump did, but something he set the table for WHEN it (or something similar) happened.

It reminds me of the scene in "A Bronx Tale" where the biker gang picks a mob bar to misbehave. When they are told to leave, they mock the owners, saying "WE'LL decide when we leave". Then, the front door gets locked, the rest of the mob comes out of the back room, and the bikers are told "WE decide when you leave." (Worth looking up on YouTube).

No. Much of this won’t be reported. Trump’s 10 MILLION Twitter followers help get it out. I say, pour gas on that fire.

That was the old Republican philosophy – the quinteseential LOSER MINDSET and total BS.

Thank goodness Trump doesn't listen to you and your ilk, and never will.

FINALLY.

Wake Up!

By doing this he is calling attention to events that the MSM tries to ignore and coverup.

By using social media this way he is actually circumbnavigating the media and getting info directly to younger voters.

It's HELPING Trump NOT hurting him.

You’re right. He needs to just sit back and relax.

I don’t think you are right about that. He brings attention to the mess while the media down plays it.
