If WE advised Trump...

Posted on 10/13/2016 12:57:48 PM PDT by pjd

I know Trump must have a lot of professionals advising his campaign, but much of the appeal of Trump is that he is like us. Rich, but like us. I hope that his staff reads FR, and since there are a lot of smart people here that are more middle America, we could probably give Trump some excellent advice that would resonate with middle-America. So that's the idea here. Assuming Trumps staff is lurking here, what advice would you give?

I'll start with my own advice, regarding the debates and handling the inevitable "gotcha" questions.

To any 'gotcha' question Trump should respond: You're referring to some locker-room talk that happened ten (or however many) years ago which didn't affect anyone or anything. But since you asked, let me borrow a phrase from my friend Hillary Clinton and say, "At this point, what difference does it make? It is not as if people died because of it. At this point, what difference does it make? It is not like I destroyed government records while they were under subpoena from Congress. At this point, what difference does it make? It's not like I allowed classified, top-secret documents to be stored in an unsecure location. At this point, what difference does it make?

The indisputable actions, not talk, but actions of Hillary Clinton did in fact, harm our nation. But she gets a pass just by saying, "Yes, I made a mistake and would probably do it differently next time". So, since you are fine with that,...to answer your question, let me just say, "Yes, I made a mistake and would certainly do it differently next time. Are we good now?"

Trump doesn’t need additional stress from us.

Just decide to support Trump and then do it.

Simple! He should hammer the return of accountability and faith in government. Here are his two themes. One is red meat for his base and the other is a plea to the appalled and disgusted middle.

1. Law and order within the government. He should reiterate that he would look into the trail of corruption of ALL past administrations.

a. He would start by releasing FBI personnel who investigated Hillary from their NDAs and

b. immediately appoint an Independent Counsel for investigation of CF and affiliates during her tenure at State.

c. reopen the IRS investigation

2. Immediately appoint an independent review of the FBI investigation including oversight, review and proceedings of the investigative processes pertaining to mishandling of classified documents and destruction of records.

3. Immediate introduce policies by EO and then legislation that anyone asserting their 5th amendment privilege in the course of a congressional or legal investigation for activity being investigated as a person fulfilling duties requiring that of Public Trust shall be immediately removed said position and permanently disbarred for further positions of Public Trust. Furthermore all benefits and retirement provision shall be irreversibly revoked from all positions, including all previous positions of Public Trust.
The justification for number 3 is simple, if you refuse to answer questions during your security clearance investigations, that is grounds for immediate disqualification for said Public Trust.

If Donald rolled this out during the last debate...THE RACE WOULD BE OVER!!!

JUST LOOK AT THE REPORT OF THE THINGS PEOPLE FEAR THE MOST!!!

In the debate, make this statement:

“How can we trust anything Hillary says, after she lied to the FBI for political reasons? And all the other documented lies? We have to suspect every word coming out of her mouth.”

Don’t be afraid to go hard on the clintons about all of these woman stories. I think the Juanita broaddrick story is having an effect on women and blacks. Just go and look at the trend on the LA Times Poll for women for the last 5 days

Don’t get distracted from the theme of Making America Great Again and stay on message with those key issues. This is what concerns Americans and its what they want to hear. Its a positive message that motivates people to vote.

Do that and the election should be easily winnable for Trump.

And put a spotlight on the difference between public Hillary and private Hillary.

They’re two different Hillaries. Very different from trying to “convince different groups” like she says about Lincoln.

Have the Trump team contact me. I wrote Harry Reid’s only biography about multiple bribes. Where it intersects is that @FBI covered up the prosecution.

More importantly, the Podestas are involved in sweetheart energy consulting deals through Reid’s Clean Energy Project. They stand to gain millions through Hillary’s promise of 500 miollion solar panel installs. Clean Energy Project is run by Reid aides, who figure in a number of bribes, including Mendez. They also run Reid’s Senate Majority PAC, a huge slush fund for Dem billionaires.

Much more info. I had to lay low because FBI is corrupt.

I will never leave Americans, living in foreign countries in service to the USA, without the security they need, especially if they had been begging for more security for weeks.

“I hope that his staff reads FR”

FR is filled with concern trolls and surrender monkeys that pee their pants after they see a negative poll. Hopefully he reads something more positive.

I have written Congressmen, media talking heads, and post it on political boards every time this topic comes up.... If I had insider to the Trump campaign, it would be going out that direction! If I could get this as a question for a towne hall, we could blow this thing wide open.

They put out the topics of the next debate today and sex scandals wasn’t on the list. I hope wallace sticks to it. And Trump says he wants to stick to the issues, and I hope he sticks to that.

restoring accountability, competency and a competitive mindset to government while complying with the rules.......having a sound strategy or business plan

If these are in place, a business is successful.
If these are in place, America cant lose.......

I like him because he is businessman.....I think others do too. He needs to speak more to this.....

Stick with his high approval issues like her admissions on Open Borders (security and jobs), Free Trade (jobs/personal wealth) and hostility to Christians/Catholics (Hispanics).
