Donald Trump Shadowing Clinton on Campaign Trail – Media Avoiding The Contrasting Optics…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | Aug 10, 2016 | Sundance

Posted on 08/11/2016 1:43:41 AM PDT by Ray76

Yesterday Hillary Clinton was campaigning in Miami, later she attended a fundraiser in Miami Beach. At Clinton’s rally several hundred enthusiastic supporters were reported in attendance.

Today, literally less than a few miles north, Donald Trump holds his campaign rally in the BB&T Center, Sunrise FL, home to the Florida Panthers. Thousands of enthusiastic supporters are in attendance

This is a continual pattern that appears to be entirely by design. Trump is shadow-campaigning Clinton to draw a contrast to the visible support and work around the media.

The “Media Polls” are entirely structured to give a false impression. [Not all the polls, the “media polls“].

If you take away the “Media Polls” what evidence exists that Hillary Clinton is even remotely close to a similar level of support in this election?

Shadow campaigning is what allows Trump to highlight the contrast []

If the “Media Polls” were accurate, then both attendees to the same exact neighborhood would hold a similar attendance level.

Actually, Clinton should be out-drawing Trump ...

Well, duh. Of course reporters are not covering the Trump ralies. They’re all at the Clinton events. Who do you think the “hundreds of enthusiastic supporters” are?

Hillary is backed by the god of this world, Lucifer. That isn’t a joke, that isn’t an exaggeration, that is a fact.

One problem with polls:

Who answers their phone when an unknown number comes in?

Nobody.

Add that to the sample bias and the polls have to be viewed with skepticism.

Deja vu 1964 is what I detect. The 3 precincts I was working were clearly doing much better for AUH20 than they had for Nixon or Ike. I assumed that all YFG and YAF and Phyllis Schafly types were out working for Goldwater as I was. I thought the polls were wrong and Goldwater would win. The Silent Majority would speak.

Boy was I surprised when I learned my inner-city Chicago area was the only place in the entire country where Goldwater did better than Ike/Nixon.

When I hear how many Trump supporters are actually out knocking on doors for Trump, my Deja Vu will disappear.

Yes, he did, and he won lots of states, and would have had a very good chance at beating her in the primaries if it weren't’ for the super delegates and the system of delegate distribution the democrats used. Further, he did all of that while the DNC was in the tank for her. Those crowds did mean a lot.

“Hillary is backed by the god of this world, Lucifer.”

Of course you’re correct. There’s a ping list of a daily prayer thread for Trump/Pence. Prayer is the only way good can overcome evil during this election.

Hillary voters will vote for Hillary regardless of enthusiasm. They don’t show up at rallies because that takes effort.

I was at the Trump rally in Ft Lauderdale (actually Sunsise Fla) I can say he had around 16K. Already heard crowd described as “over half” on local TV. In the interviews they used one attendees mocked the media’s take on Trump’s 2A comment very fair.

Well, when you consider all the structural disadvantages that Bernie had against Hillary -- the corruption and dishonest delegate manipulation.

Then consider the fact that Bernie's policies are pure communist and insane.

Given those factors, the enthusiasm pushed Bernie into a real race with Hillary. They make a big difference, especially in terms of desire to get and vote for their candidate.

The long lines that Trump supporters endure to get to his rallies is indicative of the level of commitment by Trump supporters.

True.. Romney was drawing huge crowds also, late in the campaign if I recall.

Dems dont always draw big crowds cuz its hard for a lot of their voter base to show up (dead people, people who dont exist, fake names etc)

Your post made me think that, phony polls aside, Trump may currently have a comfortable lead over Hillary. But he needs enough of a lead to overcome whatever level of voter fraud is in store. IMHO
