I think it was a mistake for him to say that [VANITY]
Various ^ | July 28, 2016 | nwrep

I hope he wins, but it was a mistake for him to say what he said yesterday, for two reasons:

1. As a general rule, you never get in the way of your opponents destroying themselves.

2. At least temporarily, it united them (and the media, same thing) in a spasm of indignation against him, smoothing over their divisions and directing all ire against him.

Even if it is a distraction from her coronation, it has put him on the defensive and given people who are still undecided (not us here, but out in the non-political world) one more reason for pause.

Whoever you’re talking about, this is not “News & Activism”, this is “Bloggers & Personal” or “General Chat”.

Hell you’ve been here long enough to know that. Have the mod move this vanity into the proper category.

Did you listen to Trump’s press conference? It was a funny line that was pounced upon by the MSM and distorted beyond all recognition. The media reaction to it does not make it a mistake. Quite to the contrary, their nonsensical reaction indicates that a major nerve was struck.

It depends upon how he keeps the issue alive. If he keeps pounding away at the idea of “What’s the big deal”, since these emails are just about wedding plans and yoga, as stated by Hillary, why the fuss. Can’t claim, as some of the dems did yesterday, that it was a threat to national security, unless Hillary was, and still is, lying and those emails were work related and did contain classified material.

He needs to keep hammering this to the press. Also if the DNC computers were hacked by the Russians, you are telling me Hillary’s unsecure server was not hacked during her 4 years.

Use her email issues against her.

It was BRILLIANT in that it has forced the left to admit that Hitlery sent & received matters of national security!

That’s exactly how I saw it. He’s got the moronic media bringing it up to people who have no idea of what he’s talking about.

Even Krauthammer—even Kraut! [I’m German so that’s not a smear]—concedes Trump laid a trap and Hillary and the DNC fell headlong into it.

Trump - 1

Hillary - 0

DNC - 0

Did you ACTUALLY see and hear it in context? Or are you going on what the MSM is reporting he said?

I didn’t watch the news yesterday, either, because I don’t have a television, but I couldn’t escape it on talk radio and the radio news.

I dissagree, i believe people needs to learn the value of that long lost tresure called a sense of humor.

Yep-

And it was the MEDIA- that kept asking about Donald
and Putin- replied Multiple times-:” I never met or
had ANY words with Putin- the MSM would not leave it alone- Soooo... it looked like he stopped the presser-

Looked straight into the camera and said “putin if you
are watching this... release the OTHER 30,000 Emails
if you have them...I am Sure the Reporters here would
like to see them”

It was hilarious— I took it as tongue -in-cheek
Sarcasm- mostly against the Media!- not Hitlerly

The Donald just confirmed this-—Sarcasm

(BTW- Rush Limbaugh uses Sarcasm all the time-
Liberals,femanazi’s, and MSM never get it!)

All that aside, but unless someone was already voting for Hillary, essentially a sycophant, consider for just a minute that Trump raising the question about “the Russians having her “missing” e-mails...The e-mails the FBI didn’t bother to look for...” could possibly be in possession of the Russians, what seed does that plant in the mind of a more middle of the road voter. The possibility that a candidate for president allowed their e-mail to be hacked is remarkable...its reckless, untrustworthy, incompetent.

He essentially MADE the press talk about it...”if the Russians have her 30K missing e-mails”...holy crap what else could she/would she place at risk...

The naïve among us continue to believe that if we only changed our approach, the media would like us. If only Trump could change the way he says what he says, they would suddenly get it.

I just think its cute the faith people have in their favorite media dweebs.

Absolutely. Loved it. Trump was teeaking the reporters throughout the news conference.

And the reaction of the Media and Democrats was one of desperation. As Newt noted, how could Hillary’s deleted 30,000 emails be a matter of national security for the Russians to be looking for them if: a) the infamous private server was destroyed 2 years ago and b) Hillary said they were just yoga and wedding emails?

“You tell me. “

Well, I’ll “tell you,” I wll take what Trump says every time. He’s got the RATs pi$$ing themselves at every turn. BTW, today, he said “he WAS making a joke.

The low info crowd asks “what 30000 emails?”
Trump is a master of persuasion.
