Red alert, Democrats. Donald Trump might be poised to make a comeback. (Hillary insider worried)
Washington Post ^ | 2 days ago | Jonathan Capehart

Posted on 08/21/2016 7:39:47 AM PDT by cba123

Democrats have reason to be thrilled by the campaign chaos swarming the presidential campaign of Donald Trump. Three different campaign managers in two months? Poll numbers in the toilet? Reliably red states in danger of turning blue? The rending of garments and gnashing of teeth of dyed-in-the-wool Republicans as the party of Reagan sinks inexorably into the party of Trump? The schadenfreude is just too delicious.

But the shoe will be on the other foot if Democrats don’t heed the warning signs I’ve noticed in the past few days.

Hours before news of the change in campaign management was announced, Trump gave a speech in Wisconsin. His pitch to African Americans on crime and jobs was undermined not only by his history of hostility toward them but also by his delivering it in overwhelmingly white West Bend, Wis., which he repeatedly referred to as predominantly black “Milwaukee.” A city literally aflame with tension after a police-involved shooting on Aug. 13.

But as I listened to Trump, I was struck by how he delivered his teleprompter-assisted speech. Gone was the listlessness from previous days. His confidence was back. And that pitch of his had just enough footholds of credibility as it was rooted in traditional law-and-order conservatism the GOP is known for. Still, it was raw.

I just googled this guy.

Two things struck me.

First off, apparently he may be behind the primary accusation that Bernie Sanders was falsely publishing a photo which alleged he was involved in a civil right march in the 60's. And he then doubled-down, when his story was challenged. So he is a Hillary operative, it would seem.

Also, he just apparently married his gay lover.

You can take either of those things as whatever they may be. But both seem to me, to be indications that this guy is very much a media insider, Hillary is worried by Trump.

Go Donald.

These people are in such a bubble. Obviously Trump is seeing a comeback.

These idiots are looking at the bottom of Trump’s feet and thinking he’s laid out on morgue slab with a toe-tag on. The problem is that they are in the valley and what they see is the bottom of his feet as he stands at the top, victorious.

If the Post is saying that Trump “might be poised to make a comeback” it means that he has already made a comeback and is leading.

The Washington Post is a depository for Trump-hating anti-American liberals.

A peon of the Left believes his side’s propaganda.

Then when he realizes he’s been BS-ed, its a Red Alert.

Ahhhhh. Me detects a little projection going on here.

Obviously Mr. (Ms.?)(Mz.?) (Mrs.?) Capehart lumps black thugs in with law abiding blacks.

MISTER Trump, on the other hand, differentiates the two and sympathizes with the plight of the number one victims of black thug life.

Get ready for the blitzkrieg, full media scorched earth against The Donald and demoralizing pro-HRC polling to kill his momentum

I always thought that the campaign manager of the Trump campaign was Donald Trump

Lots of Trump supporters expect a bounce up at every of the 3 debates. Hoping Hillary seizes up during the debates

For those who might have missed it. Whoever thought this up should get a raise and a promotion.

What Do You Have to Lose?

For the impatient, fast-forward to about the 50 second mark. Classic Donald Trump.

I expect that there will only be ONE debate and the media will fix it where they can say she won. There won’t be any more than that. She isn’t able for the onslaught, frankly.

Yet, the public will see how ill-prepared and disabled to be president she is.

Their BIGGEST worry is poor turnout.

Nobody is enthusiastic about Clinton. And Democrats are dependent upon enthusiastic turnout...and have been since 2008.

Whereas Republicans are grimly committed and generally show up every time.

That’s outside of the thinking of ‘rats — None of their candidates are capable of managing their own campaigns.

I wonder what the author (with glasses), who is gay, thinks about Hillary's embrace with Islam. PS- His longtime boyfriend is in the State Dept.

“I was struck by how he delivered his teleprompter-assisted speech”

Never resist taking a shot. How many times have they pointed out that the idiot in chief has almost never spoken off teleprompter and when he has he ALWAYS puts is foot in his mouth. Some for Hitlery except she does not give speeches.
