Donald Trump needs to get back on track: Steve Forbes Trump needs to get back on track: Steve Forbes 4 Hours Ago|02:32 Donald Trump has an opportunity to get his campaign back on track when he outlines his economic plan on Monday, following a bruising week, former GOP presidential candidate Steve Forbes said Monday.

Recent polls show Hillary Clinton leads Trump nationally and in some key battleground states following Trump's public dispute with the Muslim parents of a U.S. Army captain killed in action in Iraq.

Trump also clashed with his party's establishment, by refusing endorse Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. John McCain. He relented on Friday during a campaign stop in Wisconsin, endorsing Ryan and McCain, as well as New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte, in their primary battles.

"If you saw him on Friday making that endorsement announcement, that was a chagrined man who finally realized his campaign's in trouble. If he doesn't change it, it's over," Forbes told CNBC's "Squawk Box."

He was probably hacked off that he was strong armed into supporting Mccain and Lyin Ryan

And yet...Clinton’s campaign is never in trouble and doing AMAZING. The rallies are huge, her message is positive, and she has set forth detailed plans of her promises. :(

I generally like Steve Forbes, but he’s clueless about Trump like all the other people in media, business and politics.

“If you saw him on Friday making that endorsement announcement, that was a chagrined man who finally realized his campaign’s in trouble. If he doesn’t change it, it’s over,” Forbes told CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

In other words, Forbes watched the TV and has an opinion. Somehow, that’s news.

Well it’s hard to get up when the whole MSM, the enemy and your own people are dog piling you. The lefties are so afraid he’s going to destroy everything they’ve worked so hard at - the complete destruction of the U.S. in the past 7 3/4 years.

Yes indeed. Her health is crashing faster than the media can destroy Trump.

Steve Forbes is still pissed about getting his nerd ass beat up back in high school... Screw him, he ‘s about as relevant as Bob Dole, frankly.

Another hand wringing attention whore.

These “Republicans” need to learn to keep their mouth shut. If they have concerns they can pick up the phone and have a private conversation. Other than that they need to SHUT UP.

Lose lips sink ships. Of course - perhaps that’s their intention.

What an idiotic thing to say.

Never let ‘em see you sweat, Steve.

Sheesh! Doesn’t anybody know how to play this game?

Except that Bob Dole is completely on the Trump Train! He even came to the convention which probably was not an easy thing for him to do.

OH YES...lets start off with some BAD news about Trump... Come on people, Trump is OUR candidate...let's give him a break, if your going to post do it about POSITIVE about Trump and NEGATIVE about HIllary...see how that works!!! http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3457568/posts We’d all be a lot better off if the hand-wringers who want to talk about and criticize any perceived shortcoming they can find in our candidate would just shut the hell up and support him instead. The primaries are over for crying out loud. It’s down to Trump or Hillary! Make your decision and let’s take positive action!! Quit worrying about the idiot advisers and pundits who want to mold the man into their idea of the perfect freaking politician. And stop worrying about the commie press and their phony push polls. Get a grip! Go, TRUMP!! 35 posted on ‎8‎/‎7‎/‎2016‎ ‎2‎:‎13‎:‎19‎ ‎PM by Jim Robinson (Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God!)

We’re all chagrined. We’re fighting two parties right now. Both will say anything to keep their globalist power base propped up on the backs of working taxpayers.

If Trump loses, armed rebellion is the only answer left. None of us want that. But none of us want to be slaves to the government and MNCs either.
