Trump campaign manager: Sad that Clinton allies have turned to name-calling
Politico ^ | 8/30/2016 | Nick Gass

They don’t have the issue set that favors them" and thus they resort to name-calling, Conway said. "And I have to say, look, politics is not a tea party. It’s rough and tumble. We all get that, Brian. But to go out there and do guilt by association and to accuse people of having malice in their heart towards other people with no evidence, and then to do exactly what the American Psychological Association has asked people not to do, which is to, which is to certify somebody as mentally unfit or a psychopath. It’s just beyond the pale, and nobody calls them on it."

Conway then thanked Kilmeade for calling out the issue, turning her ire to the media's recent coverage of Trump after he repeatedly proclaimed that Clinton is a "bigot" for her treatment of African-American and Hispanic voters.

"All week long, it’s that Donald Trump referred to Hillary Clinton with one word and everybody, you know, their hair is on fire. Donald Trump is called every name in the book plus, before he gets out of bed in the morning. And yet that’s justifiable, that’s acceptable," Conway remarked sarcastically.

Trump's team continues to reframe Clinton as the one who has nothing to offer but insults. The polls now show that Clinton has nothing to offer!

WHERE is Clinton? Did she give up? In hospital or treatment? Seems like it is Trump 24x7. Not complaining mind you but odd she has ceded the campaign.

From the article :

“Brian, look at these articles that are everywhere in the last week or two where mainstream media, so-called reporters, quote unquote, are outwardly saying that Donald Trump pushes their limits of objectivity, that they are challenging each other to cover him more aggressively because they believe he should not be president and commander in chief.

Guess what, folks? That’s not their job. Their job is to report the news to you and not decide who should and who should not be president and then try to make that conclusion a reality.”

This, IMHO, is the big scandal of the election cycle. Media that has opening thrown aside impartiality for partisanship. Always expected for editorialists and commentators but not for reporters. What happened to “just the facts.”? Journalistic standards and ethics need serious update.

So you don’t mind being called a racist because you support Trump?

Or does that not apply to you?

The Trump campaign is right, Hillary has only name calling to fall back on now, she can't use women issues because of what her husband had done to women and she herself abusing them as well; she can't use honesty, look at her emails, her past history, it's all lies; she can't use her foundation, its nothing but a money laundering company; she can't use her Rose Law Firm, she was reported there as a liar and she wasn't liked by the people of Arkansas as First lady there...

She can't use her senate seat, she did nothing there, no bills, no issues, nothing but setting up the foundation to meet people to take money from them...

She can't use being First Lady of the White House, she was caught stealing stuff that didn't belong to her from there that belonged to the people of America; she had temper tanturmns and the staff couldn't stand her; she had no grace, no style and her only thing she was given to do was her health care bill which the DNC didn't promote it was so bad...

Then there was her S of S she can't use ANY of that, 4 Americans Killed on foreign soil; the whole of the Middle East in flames thanks to her, and all the ties with her foundation and what she was doing as S of S;

Nope NOTHING she can do but call everyone racist, stupid, alt-right (ROFL); she's sick, both physically and mentally, she's old, wrinkled, waddles around like a 90 year old drunk on the street, bags under her eyes, over weight, dresses in moo=moos or sweats, no class...she really should quit and go to a rest home and never be heard of again...

How dare Crooked Hillary call him names. Why this is just as bad as what Lyin Ted did, or Little Marco or Low Energy Jeb. It’s an outrage, I tell you.

Lies, slander and BS are the dem0crats’ only weapons, they never speak truth, it would burn their mouths as would hydrochloric acid mouthwash...

The BIG "killjoy" for her campaign is the debacle that is the Clinton Foundation. EVERYONE knows it, and now even the MSM is getting more strident about getting it shut down before it becomes an international debacle that makes the 1Malaysia Development Berhad embezzlement scandal look like a minor event in comparison.
