The purpose of the Clinton Media is to discourage us from voting.

Don't fall for it.

Vote and vote Donald Trump.

Jeb Bush had the full support of every powerful entity in the Republican establishment. He got six delegates.

And I remeber all the eeyores and trolls saying Jeb had it in the bag because of this, and loads of dough. LOL!

I’m not buying the MSM’s narrative, but I’m not taking anything for granted either. Until decision 2016 is reached, we need to play to win, regardless of how good or bad the polls are.

OH NOES!!! I think Trump should divest and liquidate his investments and self-exile with his family tonight. Also, he should change all their names. OH...NOES!!!

The problem for Trump in the polls seems to have started when the pollsters switched from registered to likely voters. People who did not vote in 2012 would not be considered likely voters and not part of the sample.

Heard this on Rush today, thanks.

Recall during the primaries that Trump (and the GOP in general) had millions of new voters register and vote. Today’s polls are of “likely voters”. The screen questions asked by pollsters are “did you vote in X election, or Y election”. These new voters, by definition, would not pass the screen and therefore are not showing up in the polls.

So my theory is the polls are missing these new energized Trump voters. Not hanging my hat on it, but it’s possible.

The Media and the rest of the Establishment expect me to think that Trump is finished.

Even as he surges in the polls, his "campaign is imploding."

He got more primary votes than any Republican ever--when the GOP primary voter numbers jumped 50% over 2012.

No presidential candidate has had as many individual donations as Trump.

Thousands are turned away from his rallies, while his foes are lucky to muster a corporal's guard at theirs.

The only people who believe this bovine fecal material are the same ones who said Trump would never get here...
I am a voting retired middle class American..I would walk across broken glass to get to my polling place and cast my ballot for Mr Trump..there are millions like me and we are bringing pitch forks and torches and “other” implements in case the establishment does not want to play fair.
Believe it or not...at your peril of course..my Freeper Handle is purposeful.
The rich powerful elite have been undone before.

Those who are more presdiposed to the GOP than Trump should realize that if Trump loses, there won’t be a GOP.

I forgot what it felt like to actually have a candidate that I wasn’t holding my nose of.

That is very valid point registered and likely voters and how the voter universe changed beginning of October. Are the pollsters leading themselves into a bear trap?

I am a broken glass voter, too. And this will be the first election in a long time that I will not be wearing a clothespin on my nose.

If I recall even after it was clear Yeb was a non factor in the primaries 538 was still promoting articles why Yeb would win the nomination. The enemedia is just that, enemies of America.

....Are We Really Supposed to Believe Trump’s Primary Support Has Vanished?....

Answer: NO!!!! And he has new supporters, too!!!!

On November 8, I’m going to my designated polling place around noon, wearing a red shirt. Then I’m voting for Donald Trump.

Finally, I’m going to my favorite nearby lunch place, and ordering my favorite Election Day lunch. Maybe I’ll even have a beer with it, to celebrate the fact that I FINALLY have a Presidential candidate to vote for whom I really like!!!!

You all should follow whatever Election Day customs or practices you like (but wearing red is recommended for everyone this year). But whatever you do, VOTE TRUMP, and let’s swamp out the crooks and the negative thinkers!!!!

They may live their lives that way, but they don't call themselves that, and they don't think in those terms.

Rush you're brilliant! That's what it takes these days to see the obvious.
