Trump must be bold and expand his campaign by going into the witches' den Chicago. He must go to the failed city of Chicago and pledge to stop the violence and rebuild the neighborhoods. He should emphasize his experience building city skylines and his father's building good housing. He also should rattle off the list of union jobs to be created; union electricians, union carpenters, etc... This will take away the most powerful get out the vote force, union labor. Illinois is winnable. Believe it!!!
How?
You are right. A big rally in Chicago would be a knockout blow to Hillary and Obama.
Not it isn't. But Nevada, Colorado, North Carolina, Florida, and Ohio are. And with those Trump doesn't need Illinois or Wisconsin or Michigan or Pennsylvania.
Wasn’t there a Soros bird dog paid riot the last time he was in Chicago??
Don’t even mention “unions”. Just focus on the jobs the workers are losing, they know it. Just focus on the construction and manufacturing trades and how his leadership will benefit them all. As Illinois is not a Right To Work State, just go after that provision to support legislation for its enactment for all Americans. Make it a national issue just as the Contract with America did on its core of the issues focused on at the time.
Union membership is at its lowest in a very long time from one in three fifty years ago to one in ten in 2015.
“Fifty years ago, nearly a third of U.S. workers belonged to a union. Today, it’s one in 10.”

Love it! airvet!
Wonderful idea. If the good people of Chicago saw Mr. Trump focused on invigorating the inner cities, they just might give his overall message of rejecting mediocrity and expected great things of America.
Hey, they might just listen and renew their hope.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! Go Trump/Pence 2016!
Chicago is beyond salvation. Chicago is corrupt beyond any attempt to change.
Unlike LA or San Francisco where there is hope for a massive cleansing earth quake, there is no hope for Chicago
Going there is a waste of everything
He already do go to chitown. The left sent thugs to beat up on attendees.
Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney were both members of the IBEW, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, (as am I).
It did not help them in any way with traditional Democrats.
Although I will admit, this is a different climate...what have you got to lose?
He would need an armored vehicle to go there.Big mistake
New York city area too, like Giants stadium
There are thousands of Hillary Clinton crazy thugs and paid opperatives who would like to kill him because Donald Trump and what he wants to accomplish represents a direct threat to Hildabeast, them and everything they are attempting to inflict upon America and its citizens.
If you believe in God, then there is hope for even Chicago.
unless of course, God has given up on Chicago
I read this and the first thing that popped into my head was, “Trump has a 747, not a B-52!”
Sorry...
In Chicago, it doesn’t matter who votes. What matters is who counts the vote. I’ve read they have the largest number of invalidated votes in the country.
Not it isn't. But Nevada, Colorado, North Carolina, Florida, and Ohio are. And with those Trump doesn't need Illinois or Wisconsin or Michigan or Pennsylvania.Illinois is winnable. Believe it!!!
This morning I stopped to compliment a neighbor here in PA (whom I had not previously met) on his TRUMP/Pence sign. He appeared to be 30ish, but said he had just registered to vote for the first time. Said he had heard stories, and wondered if his sign would be stolen - in a very quiet neighborhood. Not exactly a high-traffics area . . .I wondered later why I hadn’t mentioned FR. Just the kind of person you’re glad to see!
