>>”Trump makes yet another idiotic unforced error”

Nonsense. Trump is the best campaigner in modern American history. He’s crushing Biden across virtually all polls, has expanded the Republican base beyond anything that would have been imagined just a few years ago, and is on course for a historic landslide. He doesn’t need your advice.

>>”The mentally impaired Biden may have just picked up some Haley voters who were on the fence.”

More nonsense. Trump never mentioned Haley voters who are on the fence. He referred to Democrats who voted for Haley for the sole purpose of trying to stop him. Why would genuine Republican fence sitters be put off by this? They wouldn’t.

Haley’s voters are ALL Democrats..in Virginia, in exit polling they were asked if Biden was doing a good job and 83 percent of them said “YES” so there ya go..what person says that Biden is doing a good job unless they are a Democrat..Meanwhile, Biden has his OWN problems with Uncommitted voters who cant stand him so as far as I see it both sides have issues

If there is a Haley voter that will likely vote for Biden, I don’t see that vote as obtainable.

However, voters that were torn between Haley and Trump, but decided for Haley, I do see those as viable for Trump, and he didn’t insult those people.

He specifically insulted liberals that hopped on Haley to skew the vote.

"He basically invited Haley to refuse to endorse him, and she took him up on it."

Who the frig wants that hag's endorsement? Who the hell is she anyway? She's a nobody, that Democrats voted for, and she proved it last night.

Of course the "Trump is always right" crowd will say how great Trump is for saying that.

Agreed. The True Believers are suffering from mass formation psychosis.

Delaware WAS an open primary. And when the only primary you win is an open one in a liberal state, and you lose by 30+ all over the rest of the board, a lot of your voters are indeed from the other party. That’s not insulting.

I do think he could have been a bit pithier in his speech last night. But he seemed far from insulting.

thanks for the knockdown. She removed herself from the Party. She showed her Uniparty credentials by getting funds from the liberal democrats and was exposed for what she is..Trump had to make that distinction to her to address the fact that the Bush wing is dead....time to regroup and unify. That is the message I heard. She needs to re-establish herself and denounce the beltway elites that so desperately want to maintain their perceived power.

And nothing is stopping joe’s stream of fecal drainage, from his mouth and the other end. So yeah— vote for this stupid loser their and corruptocrat for life.

Worried about insulting Nikita Haley— when all along in her history— she has stabbed him, publicly in the back. His “attack” is a statement of fact about her, personally and professionally. Can’t blame him when she joins and continues to mouth the great mobocracy that are the demonrats and all their donors. Too bad she isn’t a Sikh MALE— then she would have to have the probity and trust that Sikhs swear to (see: British Empire). Grimy grubbing Nikita— that’s who she is- and if her voters don’t realize it the more stupid they.

Amazing thread. No one agrees with you. Not one. A FR record maybe.

It appears you made the unforced error in your assessment of what he said.

I mean his statement will not bring any Haley voters who are undecided between him and Biden over to his side.


you really think there are any of those?

This is just Trump's style ... and clearly (and understandably) it doesn't appeal to everyone. But anyone who goes up against Trump certainly must know this ... and prepare for it. You know, like the adage: "If you can't stand the heat ......"
Cheers!

“There’s nothing wrong with him pointing out that he trounced her, and the most of her money and large numbers of her votes came from Democrats. Quit being a pussy about it.”

Truth-telling always seems to offend someone.

Nimrata encouraged Democrats to sabotage the basic principle of primaries for their vote against Trump. She knew full well they would not support her in a general election. Was it illegal for her to exploit this weakness in an open primary system? No. Was it morally twisted and wrong? YMMV, but I say Yes.

I did learn one thing from her time in the primaries. I had read things she said, but I had never heard her speak before. Hearing her speak was like hearing someone read off note cards written by someone else, and even Biden does a better job of that sometimes. In a battle of wits between her and Kamala Harris, I would not bet against Harris.

If you're carefully interpreting what he said, that may be true. The problem is many people aren't looking at precisely what he said.

He would have been better off saying something nice about Haley and inviting her to join him. That's how it is always done. Reagan hosted a "unity dinner" to raise funds for the other candidates to pay off their debts, after he secured the nomination in 1980. Reagan knew what he was doing. Trump doesn't.
