Bad decision, and one I expect Lewandowski will soon reverse. Negative ads work. (Otherwise, campaigns wouldn't use them.) Campaigns that try to go "all positive" usually lose.
Lewandowski is a professional; he should know that. I suspect that the Trump campaign is trying to coast, to sit on their lead. That is likely to bite them eventually.
It would be a shame if a unknown PAC run a ad with Trump using F-bombs, and calling other candidates a *ussy.
Trump’s NYC ‘values’ will be out there for all to see!
The last two polls put Trump at 16% and 19% in SC. I wouldn’t put much credence in that Bill Kristol reported non-poll poll.
That’s not a very big lead. I believe he was about that far ahead in Iowa, wasn’t he?
Shhh, you are making too much sense. LOL I remember Romney went all negative on Newt in FL< and it worked. That’s what the news media does - just put out negative news all day, every day. It sells.
He really does need to enter a Twitter addiction therapy program.
Of course not. That (fact) would hurt The Don, so it cannot be mentioned, as it undoubtedly never happened.
That’s what I suspect. They probably have some really favorable polling.
Agreed- The problem Trump and Cruz have in attacking each other is each needs the other’s voters. Negetive ads may make someone double think support, but in a multi-candidate race does not guarantee support for you....
Somebody should put together an ad of Trump highlights, showing his left-wing positions and his vulgar, nasty comments about Carly, Carson, Cruz, Megyn Kelly, and others — as well as his liberal positions on 0bamacare, stimulus, TARP, taxing the wealthy, defunding Planned Parenthood, and amnesty, among others.
That’s a Bill Kristol manufactured rumor and not a poll.
Same idiot predict this
Bill Kristol â@BillKristol Feb 4
NH prediction, 5 days out: Rubio 25, Cruz 22, Trump 19, Kasich 17, others single digits
Not guilty! (the girl)
There were charges of dishonesty in the adds. It was easier to pull the ads than defend them.
In NH Hillary received
Hillary Clinton 94,834 votes
Donald Trump 100,882 votes (—)
Ted Cruz 33,006 votes
Either that, or he’s comfortable with his lead, and doesn’t has decided that the showdown with Cruz can wait until later. When you have the lead, you have many more options than when you are trying to gain it.
My link points to a nice write up on her. Seems she is as smart as she is pretty.
Yep. I've smacked my forehead a number of times when Trump drops some language he'd be better served keeping his mouth shut.
On the other hand, it's refreshing that he's not a polished politician just spewing lines like an actor i.e. Rubio & Fiorina.
What is?
