I agree with everything you say up until the last sentence. The Clintons are very well-known entities and it’s hard to imagine there are people who don’t know about their nasty baggage. But for more than 20 years now, people have turned a blind eye. I can’t imagine how Trump (or anybody else) is going to change that.

Totally disagree. Trump if you look at his style is a great equalizer and we have several cycles of young people and those who normally aren’t politically engaged that don’t have a clue about the Clinton history of corruption. Trump isn’t an angel either but he will force the media to totally focus on whatever thing he wants them to and that is a very powerful thing. They can’t help themselves and he always adds a spin that baits them in like a master.

It goes back to the difference between men being assertive and women being something else. They’re going to have to heavily medicate the witch to keep her under control once Trump starts in on her. She can’t let the facade down. Trump is Trump. What you see is what you get. And people are responding positively to that.

Once Hillary says what she really thinks and it goes viral people will recognize the smell coming off her as decomposition.

If someone releases pictures of all the empty seats at her campaign events that’s going to really hurt.

People like a winner. They’ll go out of their way to avoid a loser. Have no doubt, Hillary at this point in her life is a loser.

The Clintons and the Democrats used to control the media. Now Trump not only controls the media, he also controls the political topic of the day/week...including terrorist attacks.

Trump phones it in and twitters, they answer the phone and post his twitters. He has them all on speed dial.

Cruz (YAWN!) goes to some little known Christian station, newspaper or the lesser known FR resident Cruz propagandist and challenges them to a debate.

On the contrary, the left and the media has protected the Clintons for 20 years now. The basic meme is:

"Well, yes, Bill is a rogue who admittedly lied about sex (which everybody does], but he was a great president who gave us a great economy. Hillary is the most experienced candidate running -- co-president, senator, secretary of state.

"They have been unfairly maligned by the evil, racist, war-on-women waging Republicans for two decades."

I do think that Trump, and maybe Cruz, are the only two who would not be intimidated by PC-based fears of offending female voters by attacking Hillary with the truth about the Clintons..

Please, Hillary Clinton is not Bill Clinton and her negatives will not get better, only possibly worse.

Many people know little of Trump except what others say and few are paying attention now. When gen elec campaign begins in earnest Trump will be seen by many more people and he, unlike Clinton will have opportunity to define himself.
