Trump’s Polling “Surge” Is Turning Into A “Wave”
The Daily Caller ^ | September 16, 2016 | Stewart Lawrence

Two weeks ago, some pundits began talking about a Trump “surge.” Suddenly, that surge is looking like a full-fledged “wave.”

In one battleground after another, the billionaire real estate mogul is opening up a lead over Hillary Clinton – or making that state’s race competitive again. He’s also beating Clinton in several of the latest national polls. Mainstream pundits are reeling from the shock.

Take Ohio. Three straight polls now find Trump with a solid single-digit lead. Trump has closed the gap with women to low single-digits while preserving his robust double-digit lead among men. And Trump’s leading among college-educated and non-college educated voters alike. That’s a real sea-change....

Trump's outreach to blacks is well-founded. He's always been a friend to the African-American community, and his country clubs have always been open to everyone regardless of race, creed, or color.

Unlike other Republican candidates, the black Overseers on the Leftist plantation can't paint Trump as bigoted.

I feel like this kind of stuff is helping too. I wonder how many have seen this film.

“Unlike other Republican candidates, the black Overseers on the Leftist plantation can’t paint Trump as bigoted.”

I think the way that Trump is appealing to minorities is right on the mark as well. Rather than pandering and apologizing he is pointing out the flaws and problems the democrats have created and exacerbated and simply asking. “Why not vote for me what have you got to lose?”

That is an appeal that is very hard for PIAPS to counter

How can any candidate for any office expect to win when they refuse to campaign? You can’t win unless you play. Presidential candidates during my 60-year lifetime, both winners and losers,have maintained a grueling daily schedule of rallies, radio interviews, TV appearances, and photo ops. She should be filling stadiums in every major city daily with thousands of fans in a state of rapture hoping to catch a glimpse of her. But she has chosen not to. As such, she cannot win.

Exactly right. She can’t keep up a grueling campaign schedule during the home stretch. The media is doing its best to fill in for her by attacking Trump. They are attempting to drag her over the finish line.

The part about filling stadiums with die-hard fans was complete sarcasm. She can’t fill a high school cafeteria.

The scary answer is the ‘Rats will count the ballots.

When a Republican barely wins in Washington, the Dem wins the recount.

I am hoping for a tidal wave, but will settle for a 10-point victory.

Only Trump can stop Trump at this point. KEllyanne did a terrific job of instilling discipline in the campaign and having Trump not make remarks the press could jump on and hammer hour after hour. However, since the 9/11 episode he has started going rogue again and it could,cost him.

There must be something to this because all of a sudden ‘The Conservative Hammer’ Facebook site is rife with totally insane posts with unhinged Cruzbot replies. Damn that makes me happy.

Trump bragged that he hires the best people. The media doubted.

Then he hires KC.

She just earned a spot in the history of these times.
