Donald Trump Makes a Push in Florida
Wall Street Journal ^ | OCTOBER 23, 2016 | BY BETH REINHARD AND JANET HOOK

Posted on 10/23/2016 8:13:19 PM PDT by Innovative

As Donald Trump’s path to the presidency appears to narrow, the GOP nominee on Sunday hunkered down in Florida, one of a handful of swing states that polls suggest remain competitive.

Mr. Trump is slated to headline five rallies over three days in the nation’s largest battleground, where more than a million voters have already mailed in ballots. In-person early voting begins Monday.

At a rally Sunday in the heavily Republican retirement community of Naples, Mr. Trump said his campaign in Florida looks “phenomenal.” He also said polls around the country are underestimating his support among women. “We are going to win the great state of Florida and we are going to win back the White House,” Mr. Trump said in a county where Republicans outnumber Democrats by a 2-to-1 ratio. “There is the same enthusiasm all over the country. They’ve never seen anything like it.”

DJT is doing five rallies in three days in Florida. That should tell us what he thinks.

No it isn’t. It isn’t even being contested by Trump.

With the past eight year nightmare, states fighting back became a necessity. Hence the blueprint for fighting back is established.

Should the unthinkable happen, I expect states to hold the line on federal intrusion. Trump will lead the movement irrespective of the outcome of this election. He’s not in it for money or power...he’s in it to do his part to save America.

This movement isn’t over when this election is over.. no siree Bob. No mater what, it’s just getting started.

It may have a new name...it will be modeled after this movement. Trump will lead it at first.

I can’t figure out VA.

I told my then-landlord 30 years ago that VA has 40 Madrasahs.

I sure hope Trump is getting local TV coverage for these events.

Trump will carry all of North Florida, except Tallahassee. But Miami, Tampa, and Orlando cancel us out. I’m praying for a huge voter turnout for Trump.

GA is not now or ever was a battleground state. We will go solidly for Trump.

Also that 7% you see for Johnson is likely bogus. I see at least half that percentage breaking for Trump.

The Naples rally was really beautiful—all those well-dressed women carrying “Women for Trump” signs. Several of them had children with them, and appeared to be in their 30’s—hardly “retired” people!!

I am part of the stealth vote (NOT the “monster vote”) because I refuse to be polled or to identify myself by name online. And I’m a long-time registered Independent.

But I am known to the Trump campaign, because I contribute to them. And I talked up Trump in my Serbian Orthodox parish yesterday—Trump is YUGE among Serbian-Americans. Some of them are residents of swing states in our region.

We stealth voters are going to give Crooked Hillary and the Dims a YUGE, Big-League surprise on November 8th!!!!

Even the science journal Nature has an article about why polls are screwy this year. But they are NOT our friends—published by globalism supporter Macmillan!!!!
