Economy is the most important issue for the voters. Poll after poll voters put economy as the number 1 issue.

Today on CNN John King quoted recent polls.

Overall around the country Trump beats Clinton on economy by 5%: Trump-50%, Clinton-45%

What is really huge, is the fact that in the North-East, the rust belt, Trump beats her on economy by 25%: Trump- 59%, Clinton-34%

This is extremely important as Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan are the most important swing states.

To be more clear, once my father, in the military, was asked to build a bridge over some river in Korea. He had never done anything of the kind before. His commander simply told him to find the talent and set them to the task. The bridge got built and my father was set on his path of leadership for the rest of his life.

The qualities of these positions are not necessarily understanding the minutiae. It's the understanding on how to identify talent, build the proper team and then manage people and personalities.

This man has the perfect qualifications and he's well trusted. Trump as a CEO knows this.

“””I’m thinking Trump trusts family as his eyes and ears. Trump is not stupid. there are a lot of traitors out there. Involving his family gives an extra layer of supervision that is invaluable.””””

Family? Where have I heard that word before? Bush? Clinton?

Yeah, that’s it. Because family is about family not Tue American people.

People will RUN to the polls in November to get rid of them.

Yikees. That’s a brutal pic.

I always thought he had a boozer’s nose because he reminded me of W.C. Fields. But those eyes! That’s bad - I’m wondering if it’s ashtray or lamp induced.

Unless this is photo-shopped, Hitlery may get in with the sympathy for the widow vote.

Good point on Steven Miller. I like Manafort, but why haven’t we seen more of Miller? He articulates the “Reason for Trump” better than anyone I’ve heard!

I agree, the economy is number 1 and Hillary can be easily beat on this issue and the Obama 7.5 year economic collapse.

2nd, close the borders and renegotiate trade deals.

Third, fight PC, it’s hurint America.

4th - reduce the size and scope of Government.

It very well may be a BIDEN/WARREN ticket before it’s all over.

Isn't it amazing that our side wants to muddy the waters by attempting to get a third party in. Just because they don't like him!

You NEVER hear any of that from the Socialists/democRats/Marxists party. Those roaches stick together like glue.

Why?

Wiki: "Jared Corey Kushner (born January 10, 1981) is an American businessman and investor. He is principal owner of the real estate holding and development company Kushner Properties and the newspaper publishing company The New York Observer. Kushner is a contributor to the Democratic Party. He has contributed over $100,000 to various campaigns between 1992 and 2006."

Ummm... Trump has explained over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over why he has contributed to the democrats. I imagine his son-in-law has done so for the same reason.

It’s like the flash rains here in Arizona. It will rain like the world is coming to an end for 20 minutes. The streets are flooded. Water is up to the floor of cars. There is water over flowing in the washes.

30 minutes later there are sunny skies and a few hours later it is as if it never rained.

That is what the twitter wars are with Clinton and Warren. They had enough energy for a few minutes then they ran for the hills. Shows a tremendous amount of weakness. Good for Trump.

Before he let his daughter marry Mr. Jared, Mr. Donald Trump probably knew more about him than he knew of himself!
