Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are trying to run on issues, but nobody can hear them.
Stormy Daniels has dominated the domestic political news environment over the past week, with high-profile media appearances by Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani and Daniels’s attorney Michael Avenatti making headlines and leading the Sunday shows.
Among dedicated Trump haters, that’s made Daniels and Avenatti stars. Jacob Weisberg at Slate hails the attorney as a “brilliant egomaniac who could bring Trump down” while TPM’s Josh Marshall hails his ability to keep Trump off balance and force him into mistakes.
At the same time, the president’s approval rating seems to have gone up moderately during the storm. Stormy-related issues do appear to potentially put Michael Cohen in legal jeopardy, and he’s potentially vulnerable to cooperating with Robert Mueller in a way that puts Trump himself in legal jeopardy, but all of that is, for now, purely hypothetical.
In concrete terms, the problem with the Daniels issue for Democrats is it doesn’t really add anything to what everyone already thinks about Trump. People who stuck with a thrice-married birther who claimed Hillary Clinton literally founded ISIS through the “grab ’em by the pussy” controversy aren’t about to be suddenly scandalized by the news that he engaged in some legally questionable tactics to cover up an affair with a porn actress. It’s wrong to say that the carnival aspects of the Trump Show don’t do him any harm — his approval ratings remain underwater despite healthy economic conditions — but it’s hard for the circus to hurt him more at the margin given everything that’s already happened....

Subversives are all about nonsense. That’s all they’ve got.
Dems have no message. If they were to say what they really believe, Trump’s poll numbers would skyrocket.
Stormy Daniels *is* their message: “F**k America!”
Stormy is NOT crowding out anything, Dems are all little more than pimps.
What message? They didn’t have one in 16, they don’t have one now.... well other than Trump is bad MMM Kay...
Rush just said that Stormy has become the new dimoKKKRAT mascot. A whore fits the dimoKKKRATS image to a tee.
“Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are trying to run on issues”
I won’t read an article that begins with a blatant lie.
Stormy Daniels is designed to be the stand-alone obstruction of justice case - just like Monica Lewinski made Clinton’s perjury in the Paula Jones civil case.
A month after the 2016 election...they should have met...discussed telling Hillary to just walk away, and brought out the three big themes for the mid-term elections. Instead....they did nothing.
They didn’t go to refill the DNC bank-account. They didn’t look at programs that would bring back working-class Democrats. They didn’t talk anything but impeachment of Trump and a special prosecutor. It’s probably one of the biggest screw-ups in US political history to miss out on a real challenge in the mid-term.
My question too. What is the democrat’s message in 2018? Two more years until Hillary 2020? Let’s see higher unemployment, higher taxes, higher health care costs, more cash to the mullah, higher gas prices, open borders and lastly we need Hillary. Sounds like a winning message.
The two most recognizable faces of the anti-Trump marketing efforts are Stormy Daniels and Robert Mueller
Mueller and Daniels - two whores for the deep state, only difference is the clients they serve.
Matty Y, another big lib dumbocrat “journolist”.

Mueller was supposed to investigate Russian collusion but is clinging to 2005 charges against Manafort and allegations of Trump having sex in 2006 with a hooker (that’s really all she is).
Mueller is obstructing America from being great again. They’re in the way of helping our nation to prosper.

The only Dim messages of which I am aware are:
1. Destroy Trump and remove him from office.
2. We will raise your taxes
3. We want open borders.
If the Dims think they are going to sweep Congress with those, they are grossly miscalulating the Nov. mid-terms.
Wait. You mean democrats have a message for 2018?
I’d sure like to know what that is. If it ain’t Stormy, then it must be Mueller’s Russian Collusion fiasco, the Hillary whine-fest, Bernie’s guaranteed income, or Kanye is a traitor!
I believe I am truly confused with this issue. IIRC, Stormy Daniels has said, on record, that she and The Donald did NOT have a sexual relationship. If this is true, what exactly is she claiming now?
What issues are Pelosi and Schumer trying to run on, other than We Hate Trump?
Remember when the media went 24/7 will Bill Clinton’s having sex with an intern in the Oval Office? Or with all his rape victims?
Me niether.
