Plouffe: Trump is 'lazy'
Politico ^ | June 11,2016 | By KRISTEN EAST

Posted on 06/11/2016 3:51:03 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Trump's decision to give a set of remarks — with the aid of a teleprompter — earlier this week is just one example of how the candidate is lazy and unwilling to go about the traditional means of campaigning, Plouffe said. "It's so offensive as a practitioner," he said. "Get on your plane and go to Ohio. It's not that complicated … I think he's actually quite lazy. He's lazy." Plouffe, who is now an adviser at Uber, went on to say that Trump is "not doing basic things" that are expected, or required, of a major party's nominee, such as explaining his policies in clear talking points and drawing distinct contrasts with his opponent.

Uber is going to be a top 100 corporation in 10 years if not sooner. Not if I can help it. I've never used them, and never will. I'm a Car-Guy, and I build my own vehicles. I've built about six in the last 25 years, and I'll leave uber for the limp-wristed metro-sexuals who don't know a box wrench from a box lunch.

“Uber is going to be a top 100 corporation in 10 years if not sooner”

So, the big question is how much did Obama give Uber to take Pluff out of the administration?

Yup. Sweated his behind off at the Pittsburg rally, and then worked the crowd for some time afterward.

Plouffe has bad data, I think...

GIGO.

Plouffe also doesn't seem to realize that Trump is not trying to appeal to pundits, most of whom are establishment and opposed to Trump / not "convincible" anyway. Trump's position papers are out there, and the Republican platform is not yet drawn up. (I'll bet that -- drawing up of the platform -- is an interesting fight!)

Anyway, point being, given the opposition, Trump's day-to-day job, well, one of his day-to-day jobs, is to discredit most of these pundits, in the eyes of voters. So, he hammers them (pundits) every day.

Wonder what he has to say about Obama...............
