Luntz makes his living getting paid by the pols, and Trump didn't hire him, so he is trying to DESTROY him.

The Luntz "focus Group" now appears to have been a setup from the beginning.

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

“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.”

Sorry Mr. Luntz. Unless and until citizens are willing to stand up and tell those who are destroying the nation to go screw themselves, you aren't going to accomplish anything. It is precisely because Trump has said, “Take your ball and go play your game amongst yourselves - I'm not playing your game by your rules anymore” that he has captured the attention of a significant proportion of the American people. You can't put this genie back in the bottle. The ‘Matrix’ the left has created has been outed, and will soon be relegated to a past historic phenomenon. Bank on it. This is what has them scared.

All of you who've built your lives on the current state of American politics are going to have to contend with rapid and dramatic change. Again, bank on it. Even if Trump falls, which he very well may, the genie will not be put back in the bottle. You should probably get used to drinking Andre sparkling wine instead of Cristal, my friend.

A focus group is not polling. Not the same rigorous standards for selection as in random polling.

It is an integral of mass marketing where manufacturers can get an early read on what consumers want. Politicians use focus groups to develop memes and sound bites.

But, but, but Luntz has those dial meters that are never wrong. If politicians said what they thought Frank would be out of a job.

Pray America is waking

But ‘f—- you’ doesn’t solve anything. ‘F—- you’ doesn’t make life any better.

This is the same Frank Luntz, mind you, whose claim to fame is the primitive, idiotic, easily-fooled, unscientific Response Meter with its whopping intricate control panel of One Single Knob.

Turn clockwise for good, counterclockwise for bad. That's it. That's the Luntz High Tech approach for which he is lauded - mostly by himself.

Luntz, directly or indirectly, has dumbed down the political discourse by reducing it to a game of Buzzword Bingo. This itself is simplistic and misleading since everyone likes to hear 'nice' words like cooperation, bipartisanship, etc. and nobody likes to hear words like battle, conflict, argument, etc. But avoidance of cognitive dissonance and stating principles are not the same thing. Placating gullible soccer moms and upholding the Constitution are not the same thing, especially now that soccer moms have been convinced that gay marriage exists and that 6 year olds can make intelligent decisions about transitioning from boy to girl or vice versa.

Luntz's shoddy methodology and misleading charts have influenced a generation of GOP consultants and their clients with disastrous results for conservatism and the nation in general.

He believes Trump is a Music Man figure and Luntz should know because Luntz has been doing a reprise of 76 Trombones for years.

I hope Trump squashes him. Luntz is an ugly little bug. I’m sick of his fake focus groups.

What you have to love about Trump is he brings everyone out in the open and forces them to take a stand.

Luntz is like all these other so called “experts” that spout their uniformed opinions. They have no real world experience to which to draw. They are academia shills.

“Luntz makes his living getting paid by the pols, and Trump didn’t hire him, so he is trying to DESTROY him. “

This alone proves that Trump did the right thing by not hiring Luntz. By the way, Luntz, you picked the wrong guy to trash. Your business requires you to stay on good terms with people like Trump.....people who can rip your arm off and make you swallow it : )

Frank Luntz is a very sick person. His so called focus groups are pure stupid. He is usually wrong.

It will be instructive to keep an eye on how Luntz fares with Ailes now that Trump has painted a target on him.

Politics are a strange business...

I remember when Newt and the boys took over, man they were the good guys, Armey, Boehner, Lott, and all his singing Senators, Even Orin Hatch, and Lutz was the guru that foretold their victory.

Boy was I a naive putz.

They all have let us down, turned into K-Street toadies, or have become gelded weasels.

I don't know why I still care and look at politics other than I try to be a vanguard to stop some of this so my progeny can potentially know America's greatness.

DC and all it's players stink so bad my nose is so immune to the stench I should get a job with Rotor Rotor cleaning Septic Systems because it would be a step up, and at least I'd get paid..

” 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.

"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.”

Come on Frank, you big meanie, are you gonna take Grannies F-bomb away? ( Especially the two Italian Noni's in the back row ) Why the next thing you'll want to do is take a way here Social Security!

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.
