I have come to some general conclusions:
1. The rat base are chihuahuas - small, evil and unpleasantly annoying (sorry chihuahua lovers - that’s my experience with these little rats). They are, however, intensely loyal to their owners and will defend them even when they are wrong.
2. The republican base are labs - large, friendly, a little dense, and slow to anger. They, too are loyal to their owners, but only to a point - set a squirrel in front of them and all discipline is gone. They will happily chase squirrels all day rather than focus on the task at hand.
3. The media and the rats (but I repeat myself) have bags and bags of squirrels to keep the repub base occupied with anything but what’s actually important - securing the border, putting Americans back to work, setting up a rational tax policy that provides the government with the income it needs to do its constitutional duty and no more, eliminating economy-killing regulations, etc.
4. It’s working. We’re so caught up in chasing squirrels that nobody is talking about the issues. Mr. Trump and his spokespeople need to yank our attention back to the issues posthaste, or he’s going to lose. Every rally, every TV interview, every TV ad must beat relentlessly on the border, jobs and the economy from now until election day. Mr. Trump and all of his surrogates need to keep a note in front of them at all times, in big, bold print - Ignore the squirrels! Every time some rat media blowhole brings up the sex stuff, they need a coordinated and automatic response - “Mr. Trump has apologized and we’re moving on. Let’s talk about controlling the border”.
No, it's not working.
That's what has been driving the Rats insane for over a year.
They do all their tricks, and nothing sticks.
Hillary and the Left cannot talk about the issues.
Trump is the only one talking about them and that’s why they will lose.
Peddling smut has shock value but it has only a short shelf life.
