To hear the media tell it, Donald Trump was finished last week.
For calling a first-generation judge of Mexican heritage a “Mexican,” he had injected racism into the campaign. For firing his strong-arm campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, he admitted his insurgency was adrift. For not raising as much cash as a woman who’s effectively been running for president since 1992, he was a hopeless, incompetent amateur. And, oh yes — he was down in the polls.
In sum, for not playing by the rules laid down by consultants and political journalists, Trump was derailed, wrecked, finished.
And then things changed.
Having consistently proven the masters of conventional wisdom wrong — not only naysaying Democrats but also preening “Never Trumpers” — The Donald once again confounded his critics with a disciplined speech on Wednesday, laying out the air-tight case against Hillary Clinton by hitting her right where she mistakenly thinks she’s strongest: her foreign-policy record as secretary of state..He pounded her deadly miscalculation in Libya, which resulted in four dead Americans at Benghazi, her role in the rise of ISIS and her cozy financial relationships and personal enrichment via the Clinton Foundation with sworn enemies of America. It was a boffo new beginning.
And then, as if to make Trump’s point that we need a radical break from DC-as-usual, along came Brexit, Britain’s poll-defying plebiscite to leave the European Union and regain its national independence.
So here’s what Trump must do now to capitalize on his new found mojo and win in November:

1. Get more votes than The Hildabeast.
First, keep pummeling Hillary.
Second, learn a lesson from John McCain and Mitt Romney.
Third, skip the “gotcha” game.
Fourth, make it clear to the junior wing of the Permanent Bipartisan Fusion Party who’s boss now.
Finally, be yourself — but better.

Now it’s time for Trump 2.0: the focused, disciplined candidate we saw last week. This means focusing on Hillary’s weaknesses without fear, bringing speaker Paul Ryan and majority leader Mitch McConnell to heel and staying on message to Make America Great Again.
Trump won without their advice.
And he needs it now, why?
trump can win some big states that have been D for a number of years
he has to spend, however (media buys are expensive in big markets)
and he has to build a really effective campaign on the ground (including get out the vote, drive voters to the polls, and poll watchers to try to cut down on Hilary’s ten or twenty point advantage from illegal and multiple voting)
1. Just keep breathing.
Hillary is Melba toast
Stick to The Wall.
And make NO statements about “I might change my plans for deportation of illegals”.
2. Get more votes than The Hildabeast.
He says some off the wall sh*t. Pretty much because he speaks like a normal person, with emotion, not some scripted robot politician who’s always worried about a soundbyte.
But with that, it’s amazing that for the most part, he seems to be right, most of the time. The judge is a prime example. Turns out he’s a pretty avid supporter of La Raza. Pundit heads were exploding everywhere. But, the judge supports an organization that wants to see Aztlan formed and most of the west coast and southwest given to Mexico.
Good article, simplistic but it hit the right chords. Batter this liar and charlatan Hildabeast relentlessly—flip it, flip it, flip it! Don’t fall for any “gotcha” questions. Stay away from hammering the Rino buffoons named Lyin’ Ryan and Mitch “turtle face” Mcdumbo, they will soil their nest without your help. I see a victory with a lot of work and prayer.
Win Ohio, Florida, Virginia and Pennsylvania.
Win New York and the world would turn upside down for the RATS!!
Win New York and the world would turn upside down for the RATS!!
I used to despair about California, but came to realize that aside from the pervert metropolitan centers of L.A. And San Francisco, California is solidly Trump territory.
Citizens in California are slowly understanding that the inevitable State bankruptcy will be ony a sad reflection of their own.
Aside from the 1-percenters and the 70% welfare Morlocks...
How badly it will affect most depends on how long their indifference and ignorance lasts.
Should Trump attack Paul Ryan? He attacked Gov Scott Walker, and that was a mistake, but voters like Walker.
Screw the pundits....work on getting out the vote
Calling the judge a Mexican was beyond stupid. From what I’ve seen of the judge’s rulings, they are very middle of the bell curve. Nothing wrong or unusual. From what I’ve read of his background, he seems solid.
Trump has important things to say. Don’t believe me - look at Brexit. SAY THEM.
Leave race out.
Mexican is a race? I thought it was a nationality.
The judge is a member of La Raza and other racist seditious organizations. For starters.
Someone tell the author Michael Walsh to apply for Campaign Manager for the Trump organization.
One good thing is all these pundits who had it all 100% ALL wrong about Trump from the beginning, is there opinions are free and worth every penny.
Oops - should have added “La Raza” means “The Race” - they think Mexican is a race and they hate gringos. Just in case you haven’t looked into them. They want parts of the US to be taken by Mexico. You must know about this. The judge is a big supporter of La Raza.
