I am afraid Trump just won't do, but I do love these words from his latest speech.
"Our great civilization, here in America and across the civilized world has come upon a moment of reckoning. We’ve seen it in the United Kingdom, where they voted to liberate themselves from global government and global trade deal, and global immigration deals that have destroyed their sovereignty and have destroyed many of those nations. But, the central base of world political power is right here in America, and it is our corrupt political establishment that is the greatest power behind the efforts at radical globalization and the disenfranchisement of working people. Their financial resources are virtually unlimited, their political resources are unlimited, their media resources are unmatched, and most importantly, the depths of their immorality is absolutely unlimited."
Fiddlesticks. Trump never delivered this speech. He can't get so many big words, coherent sentences, and (somewhat) sensible thoughts out of his mouth. The words "sovereignty" or "disenfranchisement" are beyond Donald Trump's capacity to say out loud.
ReplyDeleteYou approvingly said that Trump's threatening to jail Mrs Clinton was a "killer line". True, if you mean "a killer of Trump's candidacy." That oafish boast was an alarm bell and border crossed for a lot of people here, Republicans included. Not done.
"Why am I not 50 points ahead of trump?"

She's ahead plenty enough to win.

Yes I saw that.
DeleteRasmussen predicted the Romney "victory." Outlier poll that leans GOP....
ReplyDeleteUSC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times:
DeleteTrump 44.5%
Clinton 43.9%

The value in paying attention to alleged outliers:
ReplyDelete"...mainstream pollsters have systematically unfavored Republicans in nearly 2/3 of elections in the past several decades, where there have been a meaningful surprise in the general election outcomes. And in every case where such a reversal of fate has led to an actual victory for the October polling-laggard, it was always a Republican who won. This should give everyone pause to consider the strength of these "scientific" polls. We can often see something be misrepresented, yet be masqueraded as disciplined science."
