Trump’s truest believers start to worry: ‘You could easily lose this election’
Wash Post via MSN ^ | 10-11-2016 | Jenna Johnson

The morning after the vice-presidential debate, Cathy Frasca woke at 5 a.m. and hand-wrote a four-page letter to Donald Trump that said: “It is obvious that you could easily lose this election.”

The 89-year-old grandmother urged Trump to release his taxes, ignore the controversies that Hillary Clinton tries to start, stop tweeting at 3 a.m. and remember that “Bill Clinton is not running for election, so please avoid using precious time to discuss his sex life.” Instead, Frasca wrote, Trump should tell voters about how he will improve the country.

“You know what to do but time is running out,” she wrote in closing. “My prayers are with you always.”

As Trump bounces from one controversy to another and Hillary Clinton gains in the polls, there is a growing realization among some of his most devoted supporters that he could lose the election. They still hope he will win, as the idea of another President Clinton angers and scares them. They blame the Republican Party for not doing enough to support its nominee, the media for focusing on comments Trump made years ago and Democrats who, they say, rigged the system. But they also place a little blame on Trump.

SNIP-

At rallies like these, Trump can live in a world where he is still winning. He was introduced as “the next president” and greeted by a screaming crowd of 2,500 while, he said, “thousands and thousands” more waited outside. There were no polls showing Clinton with a double-digit lead, no debate moderators grilling him on the Syrian conflict, no party leaders telling him to tone it down.

Here, Trump declared himself the winner of the debate, berated the media and attacked Clinton without any interruptions from fact-checkers.

“and remember that “Bill Clinton is not running for election, so please avoid using precious time to discuss his sex life.”

Hillary Clinton wasn’t running for election either in 1992 but she still served 8 years as “un-elected CO-President” and masterminded closed door sessions on Hillarycare/Obamacare.

I am beginning to think there are more trolls around here than anyone ever imagined.
It's a difficult call. On the one hand, opposition research serves a purpose in wartime - and we are at war - so it's good to post selected stories of theirs on FR. On the other, obsessing over what the enemy is publishing, by incessantly posting every negative story can be demoralizing. One must maintain a balance, and not let their lies and smears have a negative affect.

The media’s extreme Trump bashing indicates to me that they’re worried. The extreme bashing includes distorted poll results.

This "article" is what liberal flop sweat fear smells like.

Exploitation and Pursuit should be Trump's emphasis. Pour on the coal. Ramming Speed!

Jenna "I'm Not Jenna Jameson" Johnson, pressitute for Bezos' Blog, channels her inner Brown Shirt.

The Media has gone over the Line. They're on Trump like Brown Shirts on a Jew.

I wonder if Americans are going to watch the Media Brown Shirts savage the Left's political enemies without a reaction?

Jenna may look back fondly to a time when the Media was only being "berated"...

We have become the Soviet Union, and the Washington Post is Pravda. The New York Times is Isvestia. The AP is TASS.

When Trump is elected, he should initiate RICO suits against all news organs in America. Jail and destroy the Ministry of Propaganda Media

‘You could easily lose this election’

That has to be the mother of all "understatements".

The Democratic Political Party of course opposes its opposition.

The Republican Political Party opposes Trump.

The Latinos' oppose Trump.

The women oppose Trump.

The Black community opposes Trump.

Above all, the Media opposes Trump. In fact, the Media opposes Trump so venomously they practice deceit.

Therefore, yes, I would say that Trump could easily lose this election but that won’t stop me from voting for Trump.

Whenever the focus of the wisdom of my decision gets a little blurry, I simply picture more Progressive Liberal Supreme court appointees and the focus sharpens.

Fox News is on a tear against Trump today that is beyond belief. Just watched snakes-in-the-grass Martha MacCallum, Karl Rove and Jonah Goldberg (under the guise of chiding Trump for his tweets) aggressively insert into their individual narratives every negative, vicious, nasty and destructive sentences against Trump that they could fit into their allotted times.

Fox News, with only a few exceptions in their 24-hour programming, is full bore into openly supporting Hillary and her Democrat down-ticket running mates.

Hannity is one of the few conservative dependables and the Fox powers-that-be slotted him late at night a long time ago. Judge Jeanine is relegated to the weekend.

The beat goes on at Fox.

As Rush was saying yesterday, the MSM does this to all of the GOP candidates, once they are nominated.

Where did the compost find this old lady? Will they report on the podesta emails admitting that Hillary hates the average American people? They are all filthy cowards.

He only spoke careless words, all the while simply using stupidity to entertain Billy Bush, his “friend” on that bus.

Hear here. Who among us has not sinned. But the actions while a public official that Bill Clinton took against women, most coerced or forced on them, were far greater sins than what can be imagined of Trump's words, of consensual acts that may or may not have taken place between private peoples. All these MSM "reporters" raining down on Trump while giving the Clinton's a pass, show the hypocrisy of the left and strengthen our resolve to support Trump in exposing the corruption of the left. Trump is a leader who has admitted to being just a man, with his all flaws, but he is running on behalf of all of us and not to enrich himself; indeed he has stepped away from wealthy desires. I can support such a man.

Historically, this election is as stupendous as the founding of this nation. It has, for the first time EVER, opened the gates for TRUTH about much that has been hidden and only whispered about, before, to be made public, so that ALL can see the massive corruption, fraud, and venality of our government, pols, and the MSM .

The state controlled media doesn’t pretend objectivity, their objective is to elect Cankles.

Even low info voters can see this.
