In the final sprint of the general election season, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is acknowledging that it’s playing catch-up to Hillary Clinton, just as a new national poll shows the Republican nominee trailing his opponent by double digits.
When asked on NBC News how she saw the state of the race, Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s campaign manager, replied that “We are behind.”
“She has some advantages, like $66 million in ad buys just in the month of September, thereby doubling her ad buys from August,” Conway pointed out. “Now, most of those ads are negative against Donald Trump, classic politics, personal destruction...kind of ads. And that she has tremendous advantages.”

So BO’B is able to lead from behind yet DJT cannot? Thanks for the insight, but this is certainly doubtful. Eat your porridge and choke.

I discuss this in the linked thread.
The Clinton phony female charges has her jumpy on turnout—but she has no valid basis for her view imho.

that is DANGEROUS.
Many negative people in the world can interpret it as there’s no chance, why bother.
That what we see the dems are doing when they say Trump is losing.

She needs to say, “All of the Americans still left in this country that still love America need to get out and vote for Trump. We need to win this in a landslide so the ‘democrats’ can’t steal this election.”

Is Conway acknowledging the reality to trying to stoke support?"Reality"?
If one wishes to acknowledge reality they could mention the poll splits. On one hand, the corrupt MSM paid for polls say Hillary is ahead by a moderate amount. On the other hand, four very reliable non MSM polls show Trump up by a small margin.
Conway didn't do that.
To: Bratch
Why would she say that if we are leading in some polls?
To: Bratch
In other words we won’t claim we’re winning so people don’t stay at home and feel overconfident
