The brutal numbers behind a very bad month for Donald Trump
washingtonpost.com ^ | June 19, 2016 | Philip Bump

Supporters of Donald Trump got an unexpected plea on Saturday: a request to send the billionaire money.

It was an "emergency" request, the Hill reported, representing an urgent need for an infusion of $100,000 to put ads on the air in battleground states. Why Trump couldn't simply write a check to cover the costs apparently wasn't explained, but the missive was useful regardless: It demonstrates clearly the difficult position of the Trump campaign with only 142 days to go.

-—Donald Trump has the votes. We just need to get all those like minded for Trump to vote and discourage those not for him. That doesn’t cost money.-—

Just wondering, how do you do that without costing money...?

Don’t forget the electoral college. Most of them are blue states. Big problem for Trump.

It’s been a great month for Trump. Massive rallies almost daily. This will be a landslide

that and the debates of course, he cant allow the moderator who will give the questions to Clinton beforehand, to decide the election

I don't think there will be any debates.

I remember Labor Day 1980 the “Washington Post” headline regarding the Reagan campaign was “A Week of Bad Omens”. They never, ever let up, every day is some phony bad publicity for the candidate they don’t like and wonderful publicity and youthful photos (Ugh!) for the one they endorsed long ago.

Just saw photo of bill and Hillary on the network news with their new grandchild. Trump should be tweeting Father’s Day photos with his beautiful family.

I tend to agree it’s going to be a strong VP pick. The Media, DNC, Clinton Machine, Saudi’s, Soros and the rest of the cabal are not going to allow a Trump win. Oh, and let me include the likes of Ryan, McConnel and the GOP elite going against the will of the people.
(Did I leave anyone else out?)

“plagued by anti-Trump Republicans”

The leaders of his Party attack him. Mitch and Ryan’s long and constant efforts to frustrate their electorate continue.
Of course this ‘separation’ ploy will result in dispiriting weak Trump supporters and infuriating strong Trump supporters.

Why should Trump have to write the checks and fight these people on his own? Don’t we as Amerucans feel the responsibility to make this a shared burden? Trump never said he would fund the general election. but he has funded all of the primaries to get here.
