Discussion: WATCH LIVE: Donald Trump Holds Campaign Rally In Ohio At 1 PM ET

Can anyone tell me why the election is so close with Drumpf on the ticket? It was supposed to be a blowout now its all tied up.

The fake 'blowout" is meant to depress the Democratic vote.
Dark money isn’t in TV commercials that don’t work it’s in psyop stuff like fudged polls, fudged facts and TV ‘experts’…

There are going to have to be a number of things to do until the General.

  • Identify and call out the MSM relentlessly. Especially for what you describe

  • Aggressively work the ground game

  • Reach out to Gary Johnson supporters with the right people doing it

  • Use Hillary’s surrogates aggressively

  • Capitalize on Trump’s upcoming Debacle in the Debates

One other thing. The “closeness” is related to two things…both MSM-related.

(1) The MSM “normalized” Trump by emphazising Hillary-bashing, while de-emphasizing Trump’s numerous gaffes and shortcomings which would have disqualified other candidates.This led to GOP-ers coming over to Trump

(2) The MSM will make far less money on the Debates if the gap between the candidates was like it was in mid-August. Then it was 89-11 Hillary.

Regarding the MSM…Hillary, during the Trump Normalization, essentially did little except campaign like a normal person. It was the MSM which over-emphasized whatever they could about “issues” which pale beside Trump’s and which were known for months.

What I am try to understand is HOW the MSM and NYT expect to continue to have customers in Trump’s Fascist Uwhited States of America should he win. Economists predict disaster, along with foreign policy analysts. environmental experts.

Well, it’s not tied, but it certainly is a lot closer than it should be. I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that I somehow suspect that it has something to do with 24/7 coverage of every fake Clinton “scandal” while virtually every horrendous lie and malfeasance by Trump is largely ignored. Could that be it, do you suppose?

In the category of “Once you see it, you can’t unsee it,” Sweet Holy Jesus, Trump sure is a fat fucker, isn’t he? I mean, I always knew he was pudgy, and someone’s weight is not a reflection of their character, and normally, I would not comment on someone’s appearance, but given how much this fraud has harped on Hillary’s health while touting his own supposedly amazing vitality, he sure is a bloated, unhealthy-looking blob of fat, isn’t he? For someone who claims to be in such amazing shape, and claims to only weigh about 230, he sure looks more like at least 280-300 to me. He’s almost like a caricature of a robber baron – just a grotesquely fat, evil bastard.

More & more as I listen to the Trump rallies, they sound like the Nuremberg rallies of the 1930s and early 40s. Very sobering and very scary.

With apologies to Edmund Burke: The only thing needed for evil to win is for the ignorant to buy into it.

They say that History is His-Story…and the MSM has certainly damaged our Democracy by doing exactly what you are saying. The thing is:

SOMEBODY was incensed enough at Matt Lauer for the hatchet job on Hillary and pandering to Trump during the Commander in Chief Forum. And that led to Lauer’s condemnation.

I must confess that I am stunned on a daily basis at the shrugging-off of this MSM Malpractice, as though, since they are doing it, it is as inevitable as the dawn in the morning. A free press is absolutely necessary for a functioning Democracy. There have been demonstrations about police shootings. Justifiably so. What about demonstrations about the MSM hi-jacking our Democracy with impunity?

If Lester Holt does a Matt Lauer on Trump next Monday, what will be the reaction? Will we shrug it off and say, “Democracy was great while it lasted. Let’s just roll over and give Donald Trump the Constitution Americans fought for so as he can shred it?”

Where is the demand? It should be on the front cover of every news magazine. For obvious reasons, which include national security.

Rewarding Trump’s behaviour by bashing the person he is running against is the strangest occurrence I have ever seen in a civilized country.

More bacon cheeseburgers and KFC, stat!
(Listening to Hillary while reading Trump comments…Trump’s best with no sound or visual.)

I give credit to Lawrence O’Donnell, unlike Ed Schultz, for exposing Drumpf every night, also this person from the WAPo, someone named Farenthold? If CNN dug up stuff from Drumpf like they do, then it wouldn’t be this close. Then again anything that is thrown Drumpfs way is bounced off of him for some reason.

You know what, people like myself should quit demanding he show us his tax returns because let’s face it, we’ll never get to see them, and the media has already squandered their opportunity to go after him hard on this, because they want the next shiny thing he throws up for them. Better to ask him straight-up if he used other people’s money out of his Trump Foundation to pay settlements in court cases by agreeing to donate to these plaintiff’s in the form of charity. Or to ask him if he bought himself 6 feet tall portraits of himself out of money in his Foundation. When he lies, which he will, let the IRS take it from there if he’s truly under audit. I don’t believe he is under audit, but still, it will be hard to go back on something once he commits to saying it on the record, and when they finally do uncover the truth…
