I lack the political accuum (?) to say YAY or NAY, but your essay sounds helpful, thanks.

What worries me is that EVERY TIME I turn on the tv or radio or look at a newspaper, its always anti-Trump.... (they can’t really come out and be FOR HilLIARy, she’s that bad. but they sure are anti-Trumping it!!! 24/7)

socalled News segments begin with ... “...and many doubt Mr Trump will be able to explain why he represents such extremist views, or why he’s so offensive to women voters”

and talk shows (INLCUDING SOME Supposedly conservative ones) are either openly anti-Trump (like nutjob Beck) or else are undercutting or even backstabbing him every two minutes (while saying that as poor a choice as he is, he’s still the only realistic alternative to HilLIARy,..but but but really ANY LISTENER definitely is gonna get the message that Trump still stinks....isn’t really worth crawling out to the polls for)

The newspapers are all about how “R strategists are scambling to try to come up with ways to hang onto down-ticket offices while Trump goes down in flames at the top”

THIS IS MOSTLY BS PROPAGANDA but it is out there 24/7.
Its Brainwashing by Total Immersion in the Gobbels Propaganda Lies. If every program and every station keeps repeating more or less the same BS, people begin to believe it (if only because they don’t hear much of anything else, like anything pro-Trump or anti-HilLIARY)

if anyone thinks that all the revelations from Wikileaks or Assauge or Veritas or any of the others.... are causing people to vote against HilLIARy, please remember that voters have to HEAR these reports FIRST. These reports are, for trhe most part, NOT BEING CARRIED, or hardly at all, on the major media or in the large newspapers.

This is why I keep crying that Mr Trump please spring loose a BIG BIG advertising blitz.... he has some very good quality ads but you have to search most of them out on the internet, you do not usually hear or see them in the mainstream media, socalled.

He’s got all the expose material needed to sway millions of good, honest American voters his way. BUT THOSE good voters, including especially D-party voters, NEED TO HEAR these things. MOSTLY (and this may be difficult for many FR folks to believe, but off of FR and a couple other sites.....)nobody OUT THERE is hearing these things.

Just my 2 centavos worth.
Take or leave it, there it is. I hope Mr Trump gets this message somehow and at least considers it QUICKLY.
Its the best i can do

He is.

And after he does, there needs to be a reckoning with the media for their incessant and vociferous lies about Clinton’s chances.

The most effective TV campaign, based on a lifetime study of political tactics, would be for Donald Trump to make a series of fireside type addresses. Each promoted by spots on radio & TV; each with a particular promised subject, which by its nature would draw a good number of Never Trump types, hoping to see him squirm.

Then after disposing of the subject that is supposed to make him squirm in the first half minute, he would deliver a moving address on his love for America & understanding of how we achieved greatness in the past, over the next 29 minutes.

Agreed.
But I think it might be just as effective if he just did that first few minutes of what you described, explaining how each pre-announced topic would be best for the American people and republic.

including a couple about cleaning up WashDC corruption, as this is an across=the-boards D to R issue that can atract a good number of D voters, especially Bernieites

I don’t think he needs a full 30 minutes for each broadcast, he’s capable of being VERY effective in just 4 or 5 minutes... this way, he could be on more and more stations, outlets, social media, whatever, also. More contact, exposure with the American people to overcome all the mass media bias.

the local commie style papers here are leding today with the headline, “how Trump blew any chance of winning in just one line last night” ... pure BS ... but this CONSTANT REPETITION OF HOW “BAD” TRUMP SUPPOSEDLY IS...is all the public hears. Remember that the public attention span is under 4 minutes

ps:
BUT I WILL BE VERY HAPPY if Mr. Trump does it your way, too!

I just think he has to get on the mass media NOW and VERY VERY OFTEN....to overcome that incessent constant anti-Trump slant of the mass media

right now the masses are only hearing that Gobbels Big Lie over and over and over again about how bad or extreme or dangerous Trump is, sic

The mass media will NOT report honestly for Trump.
Trump has to BUY his way onto the mass media to get his message through it..to the masses of voters.. a BIG BIG media buy, immediate NOW while people are already starting to vOTE!!!!
imho
