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.”

Okay Dems...you guys win...we loose.
No need to get out of bed on Nov. 8.
Thanks for the clarification. I have to track down the transcript.
CBS.....CLINTON BULL SH*T
GAS LIGHTING ! THEY ARE OVER SAMPLING THE DEMOCRATS BY MANY POINT TO DISCOURAGE THE REPUBLICANS TO STAY HOME
Is Trump even doing internal polling?
Or is his campaign relying on Clinton SuperPac polls like ABCNBSCNN garbage?
“Why would she say this even if it were true?”
That’s what I was thinking!
Don`t believe it. Trump will win, especially as the steady release of Project Veritas and Wikileaks releases take their toll. He will win as long as voter fraud doesn`t steal it from him.
I don’t think there are THAT many “negative” Trumps supporters....
When so many here were swooning over Trump’s hiring of Conway, I personally questioned his hiring someone who, to me, is a lightweight. NOW I’m REALLY questioning it.
I don’t believe it. But we will know soon enough. Dems will do anything to suppress the vote. Don’t fall for it.
This is contrary to what Trump stated yesterday in the rallies i. e., ahead in national polls. Is this being misreported or did she just have a brain freeze?
it’s called gaslighting
Why would she say this even if it were true:
#1 GOTV
#2 Fundraise
Hillary Clinton ran $66 million in September. That moves the dial. Trump is putting ads up in the battleground states. Hillary’s has a lot more money and is running unanswered ads in non-battleground states. Trump has put $100 million into this campaign. Maybe he needs to put some more in. Maybe all of us who can need to.
Kellyanne shifted from the national poll numbers to the state polls in the battleground states. Those polls show us within reach of winning. We’re behind but only by a few points in the states we have to win.
BTW here’s what they say when they’re so far behind they have no chance of winning. “The only poll that counts is in November.” Kellyanne didn’t say that.
fake polls for liberals to try and say its over don;t bother voting. They are liars. Make sure you and everybody else you know who wants trump gets out and votes.
We can win this. Just look what happened with Bexit.
Let me just ask you about all of these national polls have come out, most of them have shown a large lead for Secretary Clinton, there are a couple that have different methodology that have shown a tighter race. Where do you see this race right now? Do you acknowledge that your behind?
KELLYANNE CONWAY:
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. Now, most of those ads are negative against Donald Trump, classic politics, personal destruction, cesspool kind of ads. And that she has tremendous advantages.
She has a former president, happens to be her husband, campaigning for her. The current president and First Lady, Vice President, all much more popular than she can hope to be. And she's seen as the incumbent. So our advantage going in when we're behind one, three, four points in some of these swing states that Mitt Romney lost to President Obama, Chuck our advantage is that Donald Trump is just going to continue to take the case directly to the people.
He doesn't expect to be able to cut through the noise or the silence and the way we're treated by some. And so he's taking the case, he's going to visit all of these swing states many times, as is his running mate, Governor Pence. And we feel that with Hillary Clinton under 50 percent in some of these places, even though she has run a very traditional and expensive campaign, that we have a shot of getting those undecided voters that somehow have said, "I know who Hillary Clinton is, I don't want to vote for her, I don't much trust or like her," we need to bring them aboard over the next couple of weeks.
Humans are humans. She could have said we’re just barely behind and a large turnout will mean victory.
I KNOW i’m a negative person that’s why I had my filled out absentee taken to the BOE already.
A man’s got to know himself :) Couldn’t take chance of weaseling out!
WTF?? Seems,like there is a simple remedy for that colossal blunder. Trump should have swamped Clinton on ad buys 10:1! Or at least parity.
The fact that Hillary has more than 10 % support shows just how fraudulent the election is. I’ll pull the lever early tomorrow for Trump. That does not mean my vote will be a Trump vote.
