CNN’s Axelrod: Trump Campaign Strategy ‘Insane’ — ‘Landslide’ Loss Likely
Breitbart ^ | October 20 2020 | PAM KEY

Posted on 10/21/2020 5:20:46 AM PDT by knighthawk

Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” network political analyst David Axelrod, formerly a political strategist for Barack Obama, said that President Donald Trump was acting “insane” on the campaign trail.

Axelrod predicted Trump was likely to suffer an electoral landslide defeat because of that.

I don’t know which county but not Buncombe. Believe it or don’t but we were headed to Robbinsville and The Dragon

We traveled through Asheville and this was beyond

The mission was riding on the Cherohala Skyway back into Tellico in Tennessee to see the color up high.

Strangely believe it, we saw numerous trucks with bear hunting dogs. One hunter has a radio direction finder

Hiding away while running for President is an act of sanity.

Gotta admit, sometimes Trump’s strategy has me scratching my head (like the fact that Biden appears to be outspending him 9:1 on television).

But then I remind myself that I’m not the one who took down the GOP Establishment and the Clinton Machine with a Twitter account.

Glad you all had a safe and enjoyable ride!

There are pockets of Liberals up in the mountains for sure.

Especially near Asheville and Mars Hill.

Must be the rarified air.

To them, it’s insane. To us, it’s enthusiastic!

So Trump is doing the exact same thing he did in 2016 when he won and Axe thinks it’s “insane”....ok.

Anybody with half a brain knows the commies are gonna steal this election and will henceforth win every election for the next 100 years ???

Hmmm. 100 years? Even the Soviet Union only managed to make communism 'work' for 70 years.

Biden is making the mistake the French made during WWII, they tried to fight the Last War, instead of the current war.

Relying on TV Ads is fighting the Last War.

I was also in Western NC early this month & didn’t see a bunch of Biden signs. Some were there with more in the Asheville area than any other.

The MSM just routinely says sh*t and it is hard to tell if they are just outright lying, or if they are just blind. This year it is:

1. Trump is losing the suburbs
2. Trump is losing the old white people
3. Trump is losing the Catholics

Living in the suburbs, I can pretty much say, the left is very vocal yes. However, I don't see any evidence of lack of enthusiasm for Trump.

I am in suburban Pittsburgh where sadly Biden signs far outnumber Trump signs.

I attribute that to a couple of things:

1) The old school Democrat Machine doing it’s usual superb job of pressuring anyone who is in a union or who relies on government in any way for their income to post a sign.

2) Fear of ANTIFA-types vandalizing homes with Trump signs in the yard. There was some evidence during the riots that they were active in some of the suburbs.

But I drove out to Somerset County where every yard had a Trump sign and nary a Biden in sight, so I guess it all depends on where you are.

I suspect some of these people with Biden signs in their yard are actually voting for Trump and only agreed to take the sign to keep a block captain or shop steward off their case.

The thousands of supporters thronging to his rallies obviously have great confidence in President Trump.

Who has confidence in Axelrod and his opinions?

If Trump is losing Catholics it will prove that the Bishops have been spouting B.S. for five decades as they’ve postured to be Pro-Life.

- Trump’s approval rating is higher than Obama’s was at this point and relatively high historically. Despite the pandemic.

- 56% answered yea on the all-important “are you better off than four years ago” question.

- Taking down an incumbent requires the country to pretty much be on fire, and an articulate, slick, convincing challenger. Joe Biden is NONE of those things.

The fundamentals just don’t support their narrative.

If that’s the case, Americans who love America need to mount a serious, but peaceful, secession movement.
