With Voter Data And A Volunteer Army, A Whole New Trump Campaign For 2020

The Trump rally soundtrack still includes "Tiny Dancer" and "Memory," the theme from Cats. There are still chants of "lock her up" and "build that wall." But four years later, this isn't the same shoestring Trump campaign that stumbled its way to victory in 2016.

One indication of the difference came the night before President Trump's attention-grabbing rally in Orlando to kick of his re-election effort. Volunteers gathered at a Brazilian steakhouse in a nondescript strip mall a few miles away. In a banquet hall with sticky floors and ice-cold air conditioning, the volunteers responded to an hour-long PowerPoint presentation with enthusiastic hoots and hollers.

They were there to learn the process for registering voters and how to leverage their own social media accounts to spread the word about Trump's accomplishments.

"You guys are the key to victory on November 3rd, 2020. I mean that sincerely. I mean that with all of my heart," said campaign spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany, who was a surprise special guest at the training. "We at the campaign can only do so much. You hold the keys to victory."

Stumbled?? Stumbled?! No, Trump didn't throw money away, but his campaign put him, and money, and people where they needed to be. Trump managed to earn all sorts of free publicity by Tweeting and saying things that simultaneously shocked the Establishment and motivated his base.

The Electoral count wasn't close, either. Winning by more than 100 electoral votes when one is not an incumbent is a solid win. It would be like winning the World Series 4 games to 2, and no one cares if the losing team won one of the games 15-2.

Trump is no dummy...he only hires the best people..

that is why so many were getting canned the first year

The Real Deal: My Decade Fighting Battles and Winning Wars with Trump

George A. Sorial (Author)

Remember when Trump was a great boss, a great father, and a great businessman, before the liberal media rewrote that narrative? That’s still the real Trump.

Longtime Trump Organization executive and attorney George A. Sorial saw the real Trump firsthand, from the early days of The Apprentice to the passing of power to the younger generation before the inauguration. He learned from his boss how to use chaos, the media, and a single-minded focus to achieve things everyone else said were impossible.

This book is pretty good..

The Authors life is pretty amazing also

Fist thing I saw too, but remember it’s NPR, a publicly funded tool of the rebid left that could not write an objective article if they wanted to. Why are they still here? NPR should have disappeared long ago. What purpose do they serve? /s

“With Voter Data And A Volunteer Army, A Whole New Trump Campaign For 2020”

even more than that: the fund raising arms for Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. (“DJTP”) and the Republican National Committee (“RNC”) were merged into a single organization called Trump Victory (”TV”)

as such, Trump now essentially owns the RNC and no challenger will get a single penny from the party, probably including Congressional candidates ...

thus when Trump is re-elected and should he take both the House and the Senate, it’s gonna be an all-Trump show all the time ...

IMHO.......and I have written to POTUS, Trump urging the same action, I strongly believe that POTUS, Doanld J. Trump should hold a massive political rally & meeting, in the greater Miami, Florida area.

This gigantic rally would most certainly be “sold out” (2 free Tickets per request) instantly, with huge requests for tickets from Cubans, Venezuelans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Haitians, Hispanics, Columbians, Blacks, Whites, etc. 20,000 to 30,000 plus will attend!!! and...yes there will be a large overflow crown of attendees!! Do it...Trumpie......Miami is awaiting with grand open arms for POTUS, Donald J. Trump in person!!!

Go, Trump, Go MEGA/MAGA!!!
