Donald Trump needs to get back on track: Steve Forbes Trump needs to get back on track: Steve Forbes 4 Hours Ago|02:32 Donald Trump has an opportunity to get his campaign back on track when he outlines his economic plan on Monday, following a bruising week, former GOP presidential candidate Steve Forbes said Monday.
Recent polls show Hillary Clinton leads Trump nationally and in some key battleground states following Trump's public dispute with the Muslim parents of a U.S. Army captain killed in action in Iraq.
Trump also clashed with his party's establishment, by refusing endorse Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. John McCain. He relented on Friday during a campaign stop in Wisconsin, endorsing Ryan and McCain, as well as New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte, in their primary battles.
"If you saw him on Friday making that endorsement announcement, that was a chagrined man who finally realized his campaign's in trouble. If he doesn't change it, it's over," Forbes told CNBC's "Squawk Box."

The same Forbes who was a failure running for the Republican Presidential nomination twice.
Who should feel chagrined that Trump did it on the first try.
That Steve Forbes.
Horsecrap! These losers have no clue on how to win in politics. Why? Because they have never won in politics.
Forbes.
Yet another idiot Republican reading the phony polls and adding fuel to the Dem/MSM “Trump Campaign in Free Fall” fire by giving Trump public advice.
Giuliani figured that out. Gingrich more or less got the message. Why can’t the rest of these supposed Trump supporting “experts” figure out that they are hurting Trump not helping him.
Forbes=Idiot. (I hope he reads FR.)
add Forbes to the et tu? list. and I’ve always liked the guy, even voted for him (to no avail)...
Did Steve Forbes get the nomination?
Ahhh, NO! So Steve has a lot of room to talk about what works and what doesn’t. Perhaps he should spend more time looking back on his failure, and let other candidates, winning candidates, fend for themselves.
On the subject of political campaigns, Steve Forbes is an idiot.
Clutch muh pearls.
Clutch muh pearls.
Steve Forbes is now and always has been a chamber of commerce republican.
“According to Chris Cillizza of Politico (?) Trump had a horrible week in which he knocked more than 13 points off the Reuters poll.
Just wow.”
Add that to his donations, and we have Forbes joining the Never Trumpers.
Adios Steve, go to Mexico and leave us alone.
Horsecrap! These losers have no clue on how to win in politics. Why? Because they have never won in politics.
Some logical thought points to a Trump landslide regardless of American Pravdas polls

Although a new poll from North Carolina shows only a small if expected lead for Donald Trump, it is the new survey from Civitas that contains the explosive and troubling news for Hillary Clinton. It showed 32% of Black respondents supported Trump. This is not surprising because as far back as September a SurveyUSA poll showed 25% of the nations Black voters supported Trump.
Also, according to a report on Black participation in the Democrat primaries, African American voting dropped sharply. In Ohio the fall was estimated to be 40%, in Florida 38% and in North Carolina, the state in which 32% of Blacks say they will be voting for Trump, the fall in Black participation was 34%.
The candidacy of Barack Obama was a stroke of genius for the Democrats; but it was a once in a lifetime splash. Hillary Clinton can never get close to the 93/6 advantage Obama had with Black voters. Moreover it will be nearly impossible for Clinton to enjoy the same record breaking Black voter participation rate. So with anything near 25%, let alone 32% Black support for Trump combined with a far lower turnout, Clintons way to the White House is virtually closed off already.
The last four Republican presidential candidates got the support of 89.75% of rank and file Republicans. This means that the 72% Trump is currently getting can be expanded by 17.75 points. The gap will close rapidly because there is no way the NeverTrumps will ultimately be able to convince that many people to put the selfish interests of Paul Ryan, Karl Rove and the Republican Party over their own future and the future of their family.
Right now we are still seeing the fall out from a nasty...

Forbes is sounding and acting like a typical third generation loser of a winning family.
>>There is a step b4 rebellion. It is called secession. Secession doesnt automatically mean war. But probably will in this case. It will start with Texit.
Not always. In the case of modern America, the FedGov that rules all the states is the enemy. Rebellion would work best if everyone just declares the authority of the FedGov null (When in the course of human events....) and asks them to go home while the states create a new government.
What will Texas do with the “Tories” in the large cities and along the border when it does Texit?
What is forbes problem...does he have the vapours or are his panties in a knot?
>>What is forbes problem...does he have the vapours or are his panties in a knot?
Panties in a knot over the “little people” thinking that they can choose their president. He supports unfettered globalism and Americans are beginning to see the warning signs of Detroit or Flint in their own cities.
When I was 18 Steve Forbes was the first politician / rich guy I really met. He was a nice guy and didn’t care whether those around him were going to vote for him or not. He talked to us all like he had no motive or wanted nothing from us.
He didn’t seem to have a clue of how to run a locale. He seemed to know how to manage people in the business environment. Not a leader, a manager.
If Texas secedes then every citizen secedes also. If the Republic of Texas is not good enough for them then they can leave. No need for violence. They can vote with their feet. This anarchy meme is a bit over the top.
Forbes is old school all the way. Wouldn’t trust him as far as I could toss him.

Its their home too. If Texas decides to stay and Alabama secedes, will you be throwing away everything to move there? An ethnically- and politically-diverse nation-state cannot just secede and have all the “wrong” people peacefully leave. It will be like Bosnia, not like 1861 South Carolina. FReepers need to get this whole “short, victorious war” BS out of their heads. They also need to get this “amicable divorce” BS out of their heads.
The state still has a police force, a governor, a legislature and all the trappings of a national government IN PLACE second one upon secession.
