Trump Paralyzed Hillary’s Campaign
Commentary Magazine ^ | 5/10/2016 | Noah Rothman

Posted on 05/10/2016 3:33:09 PM PDT by GilGil

Campaigns and candidates matter. Clinton cannot simply coast into the Oval Office. She’ll have to work for it, and it’s not clear that she knows precisely how that is done. For the moment, like the Republicans who tried and failed before her, Clinton and her campaign staffers seem utterly perplexed by the Trump phenomenon.

No way.

Putin is sitting on a treasure trove of goodies to BLACKMAIL Hillary with if she becomes president.

If Cruz fallows through with his threat to starting his campaign up again you can rest assured that Hillery is paying for it.

Imagine if McCain and/or Romney had gone after Obama instead of playing nice, while taking a beating from the left and the media.

...

The GOPe cares more about honor among thieves within the Uniparty than winning.

All these tools, both liberals and conservatives, who kept saying that trump

was gonna get rolled by hillary in a general just made me laugh.

Trump is not mittens. Trump is not McLame. He is not going to take

Hillary punches and just apologize and refuse to get down in the weeds.

Trump will get down in the weeds and fight. Not only will he fight, he’ll

go on the offensive. This is why trump has my vote. He’s gonna take

the fight to the liberal scum.

Hillary Clinton has all the warmth and charm of a blind rattlesnake.

Don’t get too cocky with that landslide business.

There are dyed in the woold democRATS who will stop at nothing to get the bitch placed in the oval office. Right now, they are probing to see what Trump will do. A littel nudge here, a little poke there. Trump’s usual response is total annihilation. Which may, in fact work. Mostly because the GOPe hasn’t the balls to go there. They play by Marquis of Queensbury Rules, Trump plays by street brawl rules just like the Clintons and the democRATS.

THe Clinton’s do the politics of personal destruction, that is their standard modus operanti, and that’s not going to work on Trump. His life is an open book. There’s nothing to hide from because it’s all already out there. So that playbook, which is their standard, is no longer operative for them. NOw they are probing to see what will.

The may find something that works against Trump, but Trump has had the ability to defuse most of his gaffes and walk back things that were not going to play in the real world.

It will be an interesting Labor Day to Election day to put it mildly.

Trump plays to win and so do I. There is nothing cocky about having the landslide clearly in sight.

If you are afraid to see the prize you will lose. Let me say it again LANDSLIDE!

In 2008 she was beaten by a nobody first term senator with no credentials for the presidency.

She hasn't gotten any better at this.

I can’t even imagine her VP...They have no one. Even she and Bernie fall in the category of “no one”.

If that’s true, then Cruz would have been double crushed.

‘Cause he did 13 to 17 percent of the REPUBLICAN vote in the critical swing states.

When I saw the news that the State Dept has lost some 20k of her emails, I thought:

“OK, Hillary, let’s go over your debate strategy.

Remember to smile.

Look assertively into the camera.

Fart like a gassy old mule and run off stage screaming, ‘The hills are alive with the sound of music!”

That about covers it.”

As Trump keeps saying she can’t take it away meaning she can’t score a touchdown even at the one yard line.

He also says that she cannot close the deal. she does not know how to close. I have been in sales for 30 years. I know what that means. With everything on her side she can’t close a simple sale. This is a very bad omen for Hilliary!
