So how much have you heard in the press about Trump's casinos being the ground-breakers in using strippers?
He's always attacking Cruz' (marital) ties to banks. Ever hear the media talk about Trump owing tens of millions to banks, like Deutschebank, the bank which toppled Europe's economy, then funded the 1% movement? If they called in their loans, how nadly would Trump be hurt? Can he really oppose them?
How about Trump's foundation dumping vast quantities of money into Susan G Komen when pro-lifers backed out because of their funding of Planned Parenthood?
Every time the media bashes Trump, they give him the chance to get out the message that HE wants to get out. Despite their hand-wringing and screams of horror, they are providing him non-stop free campaign commercials.
"Yay! He's setting the narrative!" declare all of Trumps' supporters.
Exactly how long do you expect this to continue, once Trump is the target. Doesn't anyone remember how the media let McCain set the narrative in the Republican primaries in 2008... until he was nominated, and then they crucified him?
But you don't even need to wait to the general election to watch how the general public views Trump. While he has amassed a plurality of primary voters giddy with watching the news media report on Trump's antics, the rest of America hates Trump. With a passion.
No, he's not appealing to blacks. He gets 4% black support vs. Hillary Clinton, far less than Cruz' 11%.
In NBC/WSJ's mid-January poll, he lost to Bernie Sanders by 15 points. 39-54!
In Quinnipiac's early February poll, Trump had managed to push Cruz's negatives sky-high, but Cruz still ties Clinton while Trump loses by 5 points.
According to a new poll from Roanoke College, in swing-state Virginia, he loses by NINETEEN points. (Cruz also loses by four in this possibly Democrat-leaning poll... but still: Cruz does 15 percent better!
Exactly!
>> Trump’s mafia connections <<
Shhh! Don’t tell anybody. The media are holding that story for the last week of October.
I know, I know his successes and failures. His are just larger than the average or even majority of people. Most of us have success and failure and we learn, move on and do better. The same with him.
Good luck and good health. In the we are all freepers.
The media lets Trump set the narrative because he is a ratings goldmine.
Its gotten to the point with Trump and Zero where I turm both these guys off. Zero because of his b/s and Trump reducing this presidential election to a WWF wrestling match throwing pails of gatbage and effluent at opponents.
Hey did you hear? Trump won NH and its yuge! :-)
Good job for Trump!
How exciting!
Trump doesn’t find them. They have been pushing Trump for 6 months.
