Trump’s promises and Hillary’s poor record are having an effect on her New York State polling
The Coach's Team ^ | 8/18/16 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Donald Trump is a very successful businessman. He knows how to generate jobs and prosperity for those he employs. Clearly he is the person we want to guide our economy in the future. Trump has a record of success.

Hillary Clinton has a record of economic failure and lies. Her tenure as a New York State United States Senator is dismal. In 2000 when Clinton was running for Senate she made a fake “listening tour” of upstate New York a depressed area that has seen more than its share of decay and decline over the past thirty years. During this well-scripted trip from Westchester County just above New York City to Erie County where Buffalo is, she promised her “listeners” at least 200,000 new jobs to fix the problems of the region.

Now she is saying her plans for America will lead to 640,000 new jobs throughout New York State. This is a lie, of course, that is a classic Clinton double down on a fundamental lie. Part of this latest, New York State lie holds that a President Trump will cause New York State to lose 209,000 (doesn’t the odd number just impress the heck out of you?).

The people of New York State allowed themselves to twice be fooled by Hillary Clinton but maybe not this time around. A mid-July Quinnipiac Poll found Clinton leading by 12 points in New York State – keep that in mind when you read about polls that have her leading by more than 12 points nationally. That would mean she isn’t doing as well in the rest of the country than she is in New York State. It is worth noting that in 2008 and 2012 Barack Obama won by 26 points.

In the breakdown of regions in this Q-poll...

I predicted a year ago that Trump could win New York State.

“Raising corporate taxes to make them pay their “fair share” for training our workforce.
Hitting them with an ‘exit tax’ if they leave.”

Well, that is just platitudinal bull crap . It makes no economic sense at all. I am amazed at the lack of depth of understanding that her speech writers actually have.

“..predicted a year ago that Trump could win New York State...”

I agree. New York State going for Trump is entirely possible. Upstate hates the downstate liberals and although we are overwhelmed by NYC voting demographics, this time around pro Trump anti establishment voters on Staten Island, in Queens, Orange, Rockland, Westchester, Dutchess. Nassau and Suffolk, etc. could put a Trump win into the realm of the possible.

You would be surprised. Most people know only the economics they were taught in school and it is atrociously wrong and ass backward.
