Donald Trump: "We're Having a Problem"
Yahoo Politics ^ | 8/16 | Josh Lederman

Posted on 08/16/2016 5:34:51 AM PDT by TangledUpInBlue

In a rare show of humility by the boastful billionaire, Donald Trump is acknowledging his presidential campaign faces challenges and could ultimately fall short.

The Republican presidential nominee is straying from his signature bravado as he campaigns in the battleground state of Florida, even telling a gathering of evangelical ministers Thursday he's "having a tremendous problem in Utah." The same day, the reality show star acknowledged his lack of political correctness could cost him the election if Americans reject his blunt approach.

"We're having a problem," Trump told the ministers, adding the next president could get to nominate up to five high-court justices. "It could cost us the Supreme Court."

If he doesn’t, wait till November 9th.

Rooters only printed this because it makes trump look bad.

Is that mormon POS running in just Utah or Nevada too?

This was a snippet designed to make Trump look bad. Out of context.

Do you really believe this Yahoo tripe?

I am kind of sick of our side buying into MSM and dem party hack stuff.

Wow, you get up and look at the “news” for Trump info? That sounds like a problem right off the bat.

The MSM is not our or Trumps friend. Of course we have know this long before Trump was even running.

Let’s not be surprised at the level of deceit shown by the Knee Pad Media.

I follow the tweets, rallies and speeches to get Trump info. Watching the news was giving me to much heartburn.

If it’s really true that Killiary is that loved and Trump is that despised, then the USA as we knew it, is forever gone anyway.

Sick. So disappointed in Mormons. Romney blew his chance, and the ownership of that loss is squarely on him. Now the Mormons betray America.

I have no idea where this putz is running, frankly. He is there as a poison Cruz effort IMO. I used to think very highly of Mormons, actually.

The reality is that Mr. Trump is supported but folks are keeping secret because they do not want to be attacked in any way, shape, or form.

Keep in mind that the media (a wholly owned subsidiary of the DNC) twists anything and everything Trump says. I think more Americans are wise to this than in the past, but it is an unknown.

CNN this morning had the son of Yitzak Rabin on to discuss how Trump’s rhetoric may be inciting violence, despite the plain fact that violence is coming exclusively from the left. This is a straight-out lie of omission, with a heaping helping of commission for even asking the question.

My conservative friends in the Mormon Church are being ordered to support Hillary.
They are following orders.
I was shocked.

It has absolutely nothing to do with Ted Cruz.


Lets hope that when they get in the booth they do the right thing.

I have come to the conclusion it doesn’t really matter what trump says
He could read the US Constitution or the Bible and the entire US political press establishment would twist it into an anti Trump headline with edited or invented quotes
The press of North Korea is just as free and fair as the press of the United States of America !!!
And used for the same purpose
Mind control to preserve power for a single political ideology and leadership

I remember standing in the lines that day. I knew then a momentous change was actually happening. I see that same thing in the crowds Trump draws daily almost while Hillary struggles to even make 4 kabuki concocted and scripted events each weak drawing Tens and Tens of supporters.

Willard didn’t blow his chance, he did EXACTLY what he set out to do: assure Zero easily won his reelection and to stop Conservatives. Mission accomplished. Now he’s here to make sure there is a smashing victory for the Butcheress of Benghazi.

People in Utah want to risk HilLIARy gettign elected???????

I know the place is full of mormons, but they can’t be stupid as to elect hilLIARy because Trump was mean to Romney (who deserved it)

Agree. Then the 47 % of Mittens fame has become the majority and the ship is on its way down.

Mittens had the opportunity to simply say 53 % of you who work, pay taxes, think for the future do not have to pay for the majority of the 47% who don’t do the same.

Vote for me and save the future of America and yourselves .
