Why isn’t Trump bringing these things up in a sustained way? Every time he opens his mouth, he should be bringing this up. Instead we get tweets about a Miss Universe. So sad.
He can’t let the media see his anger - especially when he does a rally. Tonight the reporters said he questioned her fidelity and made a comment about how she couldn’t make it to the car. Those comments are red meat for the media and don’t help him at all. In his anger at the media, he gives them more fuel. The times he is angry he should stick to his prepared remarks and only deviate to discuss policy. We’re too close to the election for a gaffe. It takes too long to recover.
We have new fallout from the Machado thing which may be factored into upcoming polls. He easily could have defended himself by linking to CNN’s article and video from 1997 or rather commenting that she was accused of driving the get away car from an attempted murder and threatening to kill a judge. Instead he tweeted about the sex tape in the middle of the night. It’s a criticism that’s valid because Hillary never bothered to research this person, but let the surrogates handle it.
They are trying to bait him, make him angry, and in turn make him say things that they can use for soundbites. He’s got to stay focused and should have his staff check his Tweets before they go live.
There is so much he can use about her. She’s been barraging us with negative ads all summer. There is so much he can use. I’m very disappointed he isn’t hitting her with negative ads.
