I think that this election should be seen in the only way that we know how to see it and with the only tools we have. I think that it’s crazy to pretend that there is some “other” unknowable way to view these events and that we can safely ignore all of the usual clues.

“Scott Adams, who has predicted a big Trump win for over a year, Tweeted a chart saying almost 40% of people have reported family fights over politics, and that this is, he thinks, another reason for the “Silent Trump voter”.”

I work with a couple of uber-liberals. I try to avoid the subject of politics because one of them gets spitting mad over things two minuets on Google would verify. (In his world, cops shoot blacks exclusively, AR-15’s are used in most mass shootings...) They are irrational and it isn’t worth the angst. So, I’m a silent supporter.

I agree with you in terms of the present system.

In terms of 1776, I’ve read that the Patriots were only about 20% of the population. Have you ever read that?

The Donald and the grass root patriots are in a mutual destruct pact. We need him and he needs us. Together we win.

Trump pointed out something about Mr. Kahn. Are the voters dumb enough to believe this justifies electing someone who will substantially increase the unsustainable debt that they will have to repay or pay interest on for the rest of their lives?

We must NOT forget why we started this journey.

It was to overthrow the establishment.

It wasn’t to see this or that policy or statement get refined into words we can live with.

This current crop of non-leaders have failed, led the nation to the brink, sold us out.

Why do more of the same?

I’m OK with Robespierre in charge of establishment destinies. :>)

This is no different than Reagan in 1980….

The GOP is just more vocal in there distaste for Trump

The polls in 1980 had Reagan losing till the Week before the election and then to close to call…

Trying cover for there Great polls for Carter

I think the underground Trump vote is huge..

I don’t see Trump standing alone as a bad thing. If everyone said what he is saying, there’d be no reason to pick one or the other. All through the primary he differentiated himself. often with comments or positions that were called “extreme” by the media but look how things turned out. He called out John McCain and look who’s in the fight of his Senate life? He’s refused to endorse Paul Ryan, now who is going to hold the superior position if Ryan loses next Tuesday? If not, it won’t hurt Trump that he can’t always predict the future...

I think he is consiously working through everything he does to set himself apart so that he will in the end be the one person the voters look at and say “yes, he’s got some flaws but doggone it he represents change and what we’ve been doing just isn’t working”. If voters look at him and Hillary and can’t see the difference, he’ll lose just like Romney did.

So consider this: If Ryan wins next Tuesday.life and the election will go on as it has been. BUT, if Ryan loses, who will be the one man who did not endorse him and who can step up and take control of the legislative agenda?

Does Wisconsin have an election for US House members next Tuesday?

“There are only two polls that matter. November 8, when Republicans vote, and November 9 when democRATs vote.”

That’s completely unfair. With the Dems voting the day after they will know what number they need to reach.

We are going to shock the world in November. It’s Washington who is completely disconnected from reality, not us or Trump. I think Ryan and company think the average Republican voter wants his brand of milquetoast and go along to get along. They really believe that, that there is a silent majority inside the silent majority.

Khan supports wife beating. Clinton needs to disavow Khan. What hasn’t she? Why hasn’t the DNC disavowed Khan?

This is no different than Reagan in 1980….

Except the overwhelming 'blare' of social media, which the left mostly dominates, usually by underhanded means.

Hillary has no massive support like the media portrays...

As long as people don't 'stay home' Trump will win....cheer up people.

I think it’s noble for him to stand alone against the globalist forces.

That’s why I’ve got his back.

Rush blew calling the 2012 election on a theory the polls were rigged. They weren't.

Is he off on a theory of a silent majority? Hillary has New York, Illinois, California etc.
