DONALD TRUMP Brings on Record-Setting Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon to Lead Campaign
Gateway Pundit ^ | 8/17/2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/17/2016 7:12:17 AM PDT by GilGil

Under his direction, Breitbart News smashed company records in July generating 192 million pageviews, 31 million unique visitors, and 89 million sessions.

Bannon’s track record makes him the perfect choice to help steer the Trump campaign to victory in November.

This also shows Donald Trump’s willingness to reach outside of the box and bring in nontraditional resources with successful track records to guide his campaign. Truly, this is a leadership quality we have not seen in the GOP for years.

Does this means will get a million invasive pop ups and ads if I donate on the Trump website?

Yes, completely agree. I usually hope for the FReeper summary to cover the articles rather than go to their infested web site.

Running a static campaign with the same people in place is not the way to win elections - or run a successful business as Trump has done his entire life.

A successful person is ALWAYS making corrections and adapting to changing circumstances.

Of course the Trump-hating media will try and spin this as a "chaotic campaign out of control" but that is actually probably part of the plan. Trump has always been underestimated.

The ignorant always complain about that. They never understood common free software exists which block most of that.☺

Corey Lewandowski seemed to have done fine.......but "no, out with him and lets get someone with 'real campaign skills' and put him/her in charge!'"

Rush considers this announcement to be bad because it allowed the news to focus on this rather than Trump’s masterful speech last night.

Now he’s moved on to talking about lesbian farmers - you know, the really important stuff.

CLICK.

“Not sure that any “shaking up” is happening here. I see steadying and adding momentum.”

That is how I am seeing it. Moving into a new phase of the campaign.

His next move should be to dump establishment shill Pence and bring on Sheriff David Clarke as his VP.

Hey, if Trump's strategy works out and he wins in November, I'll be the first one to step up and say, "Boy, was I ever wrong on this one."

Will you do me the courtesy of offering a mea culpa if Trump gets his @ss handed to him in November?

This says Trump’s zero dollars spent on MSM advertising is real.

I believe he might try to do this campaign with 80%+ new media.

He is working to bypass the old dead media.

It is an extremely bold initiative.

It is also reality. The old media will NOT permit him a fair review. Why spend your money on them and enrich them only to have them use your cash against you in the very next minute after you run an advertisement?

Sure, Republican primary turnout was 30 million WAY up. Democratic WAY down. This is the best indicator, even better then polls, that Trump will win. Republican turnout will be good and Democratic will be way down. Primary turnout always mirrors election turnout.

That is a very good point. Why give money to your enemies so they can use it against you?

No, because I'll be in the process of relocating to Australia or someplace far away. Hopefully your wish doesn't come true.

Think of it this way: In any construction project, different skill sets are needed for each phase.

It's time to call in the finish carpenters now.

Australia? You mean the land where they confiscated everyone's guns?

It's not my wish, bub. If Trump loses this, there will be a lot of blame to go around. Be prepared to accept your share if he goes down in flames.

Saw it - I’m talking about the general public not me.
