Trump: My whole life has been winning
CBS ^ | 7/24/2016 | Ted Koppel

Posted on 07/25/2016 7:47:51 AM PDT by GilGil

"Sunday Morning" senior contributor Ted Koppel talks with heard Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump about his unparalleled campaign, his relationship with the media, and whether he does all of his own tweeting.

Watching Trump skewer Ted Koppel is priceless. Ted Koppel is such a skeptic. Basically, Ted Koppel thinks that Trump needs to convince him so that Trump can win. Koppel is irrelevant. The only people who need convincing are the voters. Trump is polling above ahead of Hillary in many of the battleground states. Koppel is a big nothing.

Notice in the interview that Koppel says that social media allows Trump to "circumvent" the media. That is what Koppel hates. That is what the media hates about Trump that he is able to make them irrelevant so they cannot create a perception of Trump. I hope Mike Pence is learning form Trump. Trump is fearless.

That is also why Trump is winning.

Liberals hate competition. They hate when people can get their news from unbiased sources on the internet at any time of day instead of watching their daily broadcast of lies at 6:30. Sadly, there is still a huge segment who rely on the alphabets for “news”.

Koppel thinks the days of the Big 3 were just fine and dandy. 'They' got to decide what the unwashed masses were allowed to see.

Too bad, Teddy, now you and your buds are becoming more and more irrelevant.

I don't know anyone under the age of 75 who watches the "news".

When Obama was running, we were told that he and the Democrats were masters of social media, because they are cool and cutting edge.

With Trump, they can’t stand it that he really is a master of social media and that he started long before he decided to run for president.

Yes, but they are dying off. Many people under 40 have never watched a regular newscast on the television.

I remember growing up during the early 1970s. Think Archie Bunker on the recliner with a beer in his hand. Most people came home from work and after dinner watched the 7 o'clock news on either ABC, NBC or CBS, narrated by somber news speakers like Reasoner, Cronkite and Brinkley. It was a ritual. The "Big 3" pretty much controlled the news that Americans got and nobody really questioned it.

I had trouble recognizing Koppel. I recognized the voice, but not the face.

Koppel looks like he was left in the dryer too long.

“Liberals hate competition.”

Yup, because if the game is not rigged they can’t win.

Trump should give Koppel the simple solution. “Tell the truth and I wouldn’t have to go around you.”

Whenever I hear Trump speak of winning, I think of John Maxwell's book "21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership." The tagline for the "Law of Victory" is "Leaders find a way for the team to win." This describes Trump.

It also reminds me of Trump speaking at the Tulsa rally. Towards the end he seemed to go off script and speak spontaneously, saying, "We're going to win. We're going to win so much you're going to come to me and say 'We're tired of winning. Can't we just not win this one.' And I'm going to say 'No'." These seemed to be me to be inspired words that came to him at the moment. For those who believe such things, they could have been spoken under the anointing and were actually a prophetic declaration.

Finally, as an example of winning, it's remarkable that in the NBA finals in Cleveland, LeBron James rose to the leadership challenge and led his team to a historic victory, even from being down 1 game to 3.
