Florida has a lot of senior citizens who remember Chicago Summer of 1968. They get it that if that organized mob had wreaked havoc, a part of Chicago would've followed the path of Ferguson and Baltimore.

Logic says that many of my peers in FL at this point will trust Trump, and only Trump.

I was a small child way back in that year and seeing that riot I thought I was 9 again.

The Chicago thugs cemented my wife’s vote for Trump. She was astonished at the media lies and now understands how the media and other pols distort the truth about the Donald.

“Donald Trump may have benefited from his decision to cancel his rally in Chicago due to protests and threatened violence, a new poll reports.”

Oops.

Despite all the finger-pointing and blame from the establishment and media, I am sending that this time the majority of voters (particularly the undecided voters) recognize it as a coordinated smear job and it is driving them towards Trump rather than away from him.

Am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping this ploy backfires big time.

People wish our country to retain elegance and decency. They do not wish wild mobs ruling the streets.
Donald Trump and Ted Cruz are the only two candidates who could ultimately unite people and return decency. Maybe also Kasich to a lesser extent, too.

Trump “provoked” this violence — just as women in short skirts provoke rapes.

IOW, this whole “narrative” is nothing but “blaming the victim”. Everyone blaming Trump for being victimized should hang down their heads in shame.

I can attest to a very similar story.

This weekend was a boost for Trump among some in my circle

Exactly what I predicted. And the same thing will happen if ‘world leaders’ interfere in our elections to endorse Hillary as she recently touted as part of her campaign.
