A divided Republican Party descended into turmoil, as a startling chorus of GOP candidates and officials repudiated their own presidential candidate and scrambled to find personal paths to political survival just a month before Election Day. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus on Saturday told party officials to redirect funds away from nominee Donald Trump to down-ballot candidates, according to an official informed of the decision.

All the stories about the Clinton’s have been around for a long time, nothing new.

Everyone needs to wake up and realize the Clinton’s are suckering all the Trump supporters into talking about anything except issues that matter.

It is a masterful political move by the Clinton’s to distract from Hillary’s liberal and immoral philosophy that she intends to take to the White House.

Think about it - who is in charge of the debate? Who is setting the agenda? The Clinton’s are using the media to decide what we talk about. FR posts are a perfect example of being led by the nose by them.

Trump needs to convince the undecided to ignore the personal and think about borders, Supreme Court, tax reform, security, and jobs.

That’s it, 5 points, no more. Hammer them home, talk about nothing else.

I hate to be pessimistic but I think we’re done. Once a majority of the American people believe that their failures lie beyond themselves it’s over. That was long ago. People don’t want jobs. And the rest doesn’t matter. Obama was elected twice. Don’t forget that. No Republican can win. Conservatives represent boundaries and restraints. These spoiled millennials and warm fuzzy, touchy feely liberals all live in the moment and demand to live their lives consequence free. That’s the truth. I’ll cast my vote for Trump but I’m under no illusion that he’ll win what with all the forces arrayed against him. I’ll relish a rejoinder on this if Trump wins. Please feel free to tell me “I told you so,” on the day after the election.

Here is the problem: How does Trump win the undecideds????

Nothing else matters. We are correct about the Clinton’s immorality. Now we are led by the nose by the Clinton’s/media into talking about tired old personal matters.

But being right is irrelevant if Trump doesn’t win. It is never the most qualified candidate that wins, it is the best campaigner that wins.

Trump has outworked Hillary at every turn but is now sidetracked over loser personal matters.

Trump needs to convince the undecided to think about borders, Supreme Court, tax reform, security, and jobs.

That’s it, 5 points, no more. Hammer them home, talk about nothing else.
