Fox’s Luntz blasted Trump at Koch Seminar (Luntz F-Bombs on Trump)
Politico ^ | 3-18-2015 | Hadas Gold and Kenneth P. Vogel

Posted on 08/18/2015 9:58:35 AM PDT by tcrlaf

Donald Trump’s feud with GOP pollster Frank Luntz escalated Monday – with Trump calling on Fox News to fire Luntz from overseeing its post-debate focus groups, and Luntz launching a profanity-laden tirade to describe the real estate showman turned renegade presidential candidate.

In an interview with POLITICO, Luntz said Trump — and Democratic presidential insurgent Bernie Sanders — are “delivering a big ‘f—- you’ to the elites in America.

“And that resonates on both sides,” Luntz said. “But ‘f—- you’ doesn’t solve anything. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t make life any better. ‘F—- you’ makes you feel good, but it doesn’t get you where you need to go. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t make America strong. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t solve anything.”

Trump responded by accusing Luntz of harboring a long-held vendetta because Trump refused to do business with Luntz’s polling firm.

“I caught him cold,” Trump told POLITICO. “And frankly, if I was [Fox News President] Roger Ailes, I’d fire that guy so fast for what he did that his head would spin.”

” And that resonates on both sides,” Luntz said. “But ‘f—- you’ doesn’t solve anything. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t make life any better. ‘F—- you’ makes you feel good, but it doesn’t get you where you need to go. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t make America strong. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t solve anything.””

True, but it’s a start. The next step is to actually carry out the act.

It’s clear that Luntz’s focus group after the Faux Debate was a set up.

Meant to follow up on the hatchet job Faux did on Trump.

From the Faux debate to the Faux talking heads to Luntz’s fake Focus
group... It all was part of a plan to take out Trump.

>>The Luntz “focus Group” now appears to have been a setup from the beginning.<<

Yes, Trump said it so it must be true.

I was wondering where Morris went. Then I went to Newsmax and apparently he’s one of their regulars. Not lookin’ too good, either.

Luntz is trying to use words again to manipulate people. His scam is “F U” and trying to associate these words with Trump and dumb people down.

He belongs right up there with Dick Morris and Karl Rove.

A gruesome threesome.

They remind me of the experience we had in 2008 and 2012.

Foxnews, except for BOR, is pretty useless; and even he has problems, but BOR is not incompetent, most of the time.

The people in Luntz focus groups are easily swayed. That’s why they’re in a focus group.

Yeah. I watched it too after the debate and came to the same conclusion.

“In an interview with POLITICO, Luntz said Trump — and Democratic presidential insurgent Bernie Sanders — are “delivering a big ‘f*** you’ to the elites in America. “

And.... what is Luntz’s point? Other than that that’s the obvious reason both are popular?

Frank Luntz says
1. Use small words.

2. Use short sentences.

-------

Like, FU doesn't solve anything. It doesn't matter if what you say is true. It matters what people hear! Luntz is a con artist.

he does private, public (push pols), and focus groups for messaging.

An unfiltered (honest on his mind) candidate is toxic for the simulated conservative industry.

Luntz is a greasy scam artist that Fox has rescued from the ash heap of U.S. politics after his dismal failures in previous elections. Pay no attention to this zero.

“If Lunz was around during the time of our founders we would be under Brittish Rule.”

He definitely would have been a Tory.
