The bigger question is to wonder how much free advertising Trump has received in the last month. Clinton has raised $42 million. I bet Trump has received at least that much in free advertisement. Trump is doing to Clinton what he did to Bush.

She may as well take all her campaign cash and light a match to it. She will get the same outcome as doing the ads. The only benefit comes to those who produce the ads and collect the 15% commission.

This Dilbert guy is interesting.

First he was “analyzing” Trump. In a quite positive and insightful light. Then he went to open support of Trump.

But now he says he supports Hillary.

I would not be surprised if this guy begins writing negatively about Trump in late August or so.

It’s like Morning Joe.

You see how much they propped up Trump in the primary.

As soon as Trump won, they turned viciously against Trump.

The 2016 campaign will be the acid test of the effectiveness of a social media / asymmetrical campaign versus the conventional big money, old media, party apparatus campaign. Can Trump turn the race into a reality TV show?

But let’s look at the firing through a persuasion filter. If you are Paul Manafort, and you want to send a clear signal that the Trump campaign plans to do a post-convention pivot to a more presidential vibe, what’s the best way to do that?

Answer: Fire Corey Lewandowski.

Dilbert is saying this is RNC appeasement.

Trump is not stupid. There’s a very necessary role for paid media and for GOTV/ground game.

He’ll need both to win a national campaign.

Dilbert is brilliant and has my full respect. Social media alone gives the edge to Trump.

To secure the victory, I wish Trump would just say the following four things
:
Marriage is between a husband and wife.
Homosexuality is a sin.
Abortion is murder.
America is the greatest nation ever.

The four statements above would attract the American and repulse the Communists. Which is the bigger group? Americans, by far.
