trump needs to stop saying things that can and will be interpreted wrongly by the left wing media. Just stay focused, on message, and attack Hillary.

Florida was pretty much gone to the Trump camp since the Orlando terror attacks.

I give you two reasons these polls are meaningless.

1. The debates will change the polls

2. Trump has spent $0 on TV advertising so far. All the negative ads are Hellary’s.

This is her best case scenario, remember Trump beat the likes of Cruz, Rubio, Paul, Christie in debates, and they are some sharp smart guys who never could be beaten by Hellary.

that would be boring

And Trump doesn’t do boring

He does this to get the media going

Free press is free press

According gleeful CBS correspondent reported this morning that Trump was still losing ground. It doesn’t matter, of course, that she was lying.

If so, look for there to be a secession movement in some of the blue states.

He really does need to do the there you go again line and then openly start calling the media the unofficial DNC operation and ask why they are not required to follow federal election laws since they are obviously openly partisan and are campaigning for the Hag.

Good point.

Yahoo headline today, '1 out of 5 Republicans want Trump to step down'

How many Democrats want Hillary out?

Trump gaining ground while Hillary Clinton slipped ..

This you will not hear on the evening or morning news shows. They will contrive how Trump is "unstable" or "not the right temperament" because he wants to Make America Great again - it's probably too "dark" for the msm.

"Trump has spent $0 on TV advertising so far. All the negative ads are Hellary’s."

He's spent $0 and he's 3 1/2 points behind? The MSM is going 24/7 100% attacking him ... I'd say he's doing amazingly well!

(BTW, who watches political ads during the Olympics? Don't most normal people mute the TV, go to the bathroom or get a beer?)

They have the guns, but Trump gives them the ammunition.

“Trump’s unfiltered comments are his worst enemy.”

True ... to some extent. Here’s the problem. Trump could say the following :

“I hate driving around the DC Beltway. However, I love babies.”.

The press will print this as : Trump said today, “I hate ... babies.”

Anything the man says can and will be misconstrued. They’re going to manufacture “problems” much like they did with this ridiculous accusation of “assassination”.

Now, Trump can certainly change his campaign rhetoric to avoid that kind of stuff. However, he will then come off as a canned, programmed politician. Much of his appeal is the lack of political “polish” that seems to clean integrity from people we as conservatives used to support in DC (Ryan, Cruz, etc).

I am hoping to see the following :

1> Only a “bit” of polish. I love what I see when he’s out on the trail. A “bit” of polish basically means avoiding obvious pitfalls that give the press an easy thing to bitch about. He needs to watch the sentence fragments and complete his thoughts. That’s not all that difficult a problem to solve ... especially if someone is cueing him when he’s potentially walking into one of those situations.

2> Commercials that point out what he said, and what the media did to him. He has *got* to start taking on the media and almost make a joke of those that are explicit in their disdain for his campaign. Thirty seconds of pointing out what he said and the way the press manufactures these crises will shut them up.

3> Full out attacks on Hillary from mid September until the end. Let the press ramble and babble about these issues. Liberals treat their favored political like leaders of a religious cult. There are plenty of facts you can state about Hillary that the press will interpret as insults. They WILL discuss those insults on TV and look like asses as they attempt to defend her. Moreover, people will learn about the breed of scumbag she is as they spew their weak defense of PIAPS.

4> Make this campaign into a passionate street fight. People want this. Look at our past three nominees. Bush won mainly due to the repulsiveness of his two opponents, his appeal to evangelicals, and traces of conservatism. He wasn’t a fighter though, and it showed as his presidency appeared to spiral down the drain and the Dems seized power in 2006 and 2008 seeing that he never, ever fought those idiots. When he did fight, it was mainly for amnesty support which completely torqued off his base.

McCain all but endorsed Obama and Romney had ZERO fight in him. You don’t motivate anyone to do anything behaving like that. The depressed turnout proved that.

Trump needs to stick to his guns and keep the gloves OFF. The press is going to whine and fight about this. They’ll play their “psychopath” cards and the like. The Trump campaign needs to have a plan of attack to address those stupid comments from the socialist press AND keep the street fight going.

He does those 4 things, he’ll win this thing. This nation hasn’t seen anyone passionate about the United States of America running for President in a long, long time. The powers that be chose to pursue a one-world government solution. Mankind isn’t ready for that nonsense and people are completely sick and tired of being dragged down by creeping socialism.

Personally I thought Trump lost a couple of those debates but he managed to hit the right themes with people along the way ... such as the system was rigged, outsider candidate, building a wall etc. And I think that was what won it for him more than anything.

She didn’t say. That would make it too easy to check. You are supposed to accept her authority.

BS. Trump could say “Good Morning” and the media will start screaming he is anti afternoon. The more THE PEOPLE(includes us FReepers) continue with the media lies, the more we hurt Trump. He should say whatever is on his mind.

But it is the “independents” we have to convince that Trump is the guy. And they voted for Obama in the last two elections.
