He’s the one Republican whom polls show cannot beat Hillary
I always laugh when I read this.
Keep posting it, it makes my day.
Some polls show that he beats Billery.
Very few.
It happens to be the fact of the matter. Trump is performing worst against Clinton of any of the three. In most polls, and in the average of national polls, he loses consistenly, and not in a close vote either.
Because the media is doing for Trump what it did for McCain and Romney — going easy long enough to make him the nominee (because they think he’s the most beatable), and then they’ll unleash on him when the general election campaign starts.
Trump is the only person with a higher negative rating than Hitlery. So they’re trying to arrange the weakest GOP nominee — again.
Remember, Roger Stone threatened to publish the names and room numbers of anti-Trump delegates.
Only becaue the media decided it’s news.
That’s different. Their information must be protected at all costs, but yours should be exposed and whatever happens to you isn’t their fault.
Then it is a good thing I no longer believe in polls or I would be worried.
Like what most of what the media pushes now is designed to move forward an agenda, polls are just one more way they use to shape public opinion.
The polls you site may or may not be accurate, but I no longer care.
Hillary has her own problems, I have my doubts will in fact be the Democrats candidate for the general election, but even if she is, she is vulnerable to someone willing to take her on.
Despite the beatdown, reporters love the Trump beat
TAMPA — Donald Trump’s penchant for abusing reporters is well known. He disparages them as “dishonest,” “troublemakers,” and “scum,” and sometimes he calls them out by name. At his rallies, he pens in the press like cattle. Any journalist who dares to wander beyond the metal barricades is tossed out.
And yet. The not-so-dirty little secret among reporters who cover Trump is this: It’s a kick to report on his campaign, a constant thrill ride. They love the beat, if not the beatdown.
“He’s by far the biggest story of 2016,” says Byron York, the Washington Examiner’s chief political correspondent, who has trailed Trump through eight states. “Other campaigns are more conventional. His events are bigger, the excitement levels are higher.”
That’s not necessarily an endorsement of Trump’s politics. It is a statement in behalf of the thing political journalists root for most — a good story.
