So, they assemble a group of people, and essentially cast Trump in a negative light, and then badger them about it.
The last poll taken in late January has Trump up by 16 points. He’s going into SC with a lot of momentum from his huge, lopsided victory in NH.
He turned out 5,000 people on a cold night last night, while Cruz turned out 200.
Trump out performed his poll numbers in NH by 4 points.
It’s interesting to note that while campaigning in NH Trump took time off to campaign elsewhere, plus lost a day due to a snow storm. He was roundly condemned for having done so, but he was confident of his ability to win. Now, Trump is taking 2 days to campaign in Louisiana and Florida, before returning to stage at least 4 big events in SC.
He’s going to win, and win big.
As we saw in Iowa, large crowds don’t necessarily mean your going to win.
And let’s not forget, Ted Cruz also out performed the polls in Iowa by 4 points.
And in New Hampshire, Ted took third without even trying (only spent five hundred thousand, least number of days campaigning, etc).
Having said that, I definitely think Ted Cruz has the advantage in the Bible Belt, regardless of what the polls say right now.
Trump’s adds of becoming president have gone through the roof because the stock market is now collapsing and probably going down another 50% by November. This also bodes very badly for the economy.
Trump has been screaming about these issues and the other candidates all now sound like Trump mini me’s.
He’s going into SC with a lot of momentum from his huge, lopsided victory in NH.You call it "a lopsided victory".
I call it a well deserved 1 - 2 bitch slap. I'm betting the #2 (Kasich) slap hurt the worst.
