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.

Yes, I agree with your thoughts.

I know what you mean about that rain too.

You may only get a couple of showers like that per year, so you better be ready to catch every drop...

What matters is what *TRUMP* does.

TRUMP is “burying” Hillary.

Bernie is merely keeping Democrats nervous, stalling until the FBI interviews her, with his grousing against her.

Bernie’s complaints are a non-starter, but he brings one gift and that is his candidacy is blocking Hillary from money, because he is still plodding along side of her through a primary.

This fact blocks Hillary from funding.

The Democrat Party can not release funds for a general election race so long as a *primary* is under way, and looks to remain under way, all the way to the Convention.

This is an advantage for Republicans that she is stalled on money and deprived of beginning a full blown and fully funded General Election attack on the Republican nominee.

I like to think that Stephen Miller is probably tutoring Jared Kushner, on how to run a transition team and how to avoid the trap doors of a transition, laid by the outgoing previous administration.

With men like Jeff Sessions, Stephen Miller, and Paul Manafort, I have to believe that they and their trusted loyalists already have machinery running and so much good stuff already in motion, it boggles my mind.

And, let’s not under rate what Newt Gingrich might bring, in the form of counsel, and what he knows about the legal/ nerd details that are important during a transition.

I have never been comfortable with nepotism. Both peers and subordinates will resent him and the implication that he got his position because of the kinship. I have seen it happen several times in my lifetime. In each and every case the ‘victim’ had to be terminated. In one situation a man had to fire his own son to ensure tranquility within the company.

Trump has built a huge company not on nepotism. don’t think that is the case here either.

Trump has a woman problem. They said this over and over again

Back in 2012 it was the media who kept telling us that it was the GOP who were waging a war on women........

The only women who have a problem with Trump are democraps who have a problem with ALL Republicans........

As a side note, every woman I know who identifies as a Republican is solidly in support of Trump.

You can be assured he has been thoroughly vetted—and he’s family. Confidentiality comes with the job.
