Happy Trump-day to all!
Transferring that story to governing He knows how to rely on the experts. He listens he is proactive, he gets the projects done , he diagnoses the problem , he finishes projects others can’t. He is a leader.
HE WILL DO WELL !
Plus, they were plants. Any televised focus group is a staged event. It only takes a few bigmouths to create the intended propaganda effect.
Trump ALWAYS gets the RIGHT people around him!!! Canadian hockey team was just BRILLIANT!!! Manafort is the best at what he does, probably should have brought him on sooner, but Trump works on a budget Manafort WILL be a HERO if he pulls this off!! He WILL pull this off, his reputation will be exemplary if he does!!!
That was GREAT! It gave me chills. The scenery and photography were magnificent. Love the tartans. Thanks for sharing!
Given Trump’s mother is Scottish, very fitting song :-)
I agree.
People keep talking about getting to 1237, but I believe that there are 1235 unbound delegates (which hardly anyone talks about). If Trump doesn’t get to 1237 (I hope and pray he will), I think if he gets close and continues with a momentum, many of the unbound delegates will vote for him. Even though they’re unbound, IMHO, Trump’s campaign should start talking with them now (I suspect Cruz’s campaign is/has been doing so).
That is the word PROPAGANDA, damn near EVERY article or program is nothing but PROPAGANDA!! WE are very blessed today that we have social media and we can SEE the truth with our own eyes!!!
I remember reading a post here in which he said he doesn’t speak it but can read and understand it (or something to that effect).
Good one!
As you know, I've sworn off Fox in general and Lightweight Journalist Megyn Kelly in full, but I had to tune in last night to see the speeches.
I tried to view as an undecided voter. My takeaway was that those Cruz broads were shrill and nasty. Who would want to associate with them?
The more people disagreed with them, the nastier they got. Just like in real life with so many Cruz people. The stench of desperation and anger that people won't fall in line.
The Trump and Kasich people... I wouldn't enjoyed having a beer with them. The Kasich people seemed much more normal in comparison to the Cruzers. Not talking about policy or their candidate's prospects... they just seemed like nice people.
I like that song and video a lot, too.
I think they should play that at Trump rallies. I’d say they should play the video, however, one thought that came to mind is that I’m not sure these guys got release forms for all the pictures they are using (both personal as well as some from movies). People know that Trump has deep pockets and I could see someone suing him for using an authorized pic (ok - I’m a worry wart and just want to make sure Mr. T is protected).
There were pics on the thread last night that showed the same woman that was a B on Megyn’s group last night also on a CNN thingy. Wonder if she’s being paid by Cruz’s campaign or one of his PACs to get on as many panels/focus groups as possible.
One commentor who is worth keeping up with is Bill Still. He’s onboard the Trump Train but he reports facts and has objectivity that the MSM and cable shills lack.
He’s also got a sense of humor and his wife Beth dishes up World-Class Rants!
Here’s an interesting one for Trump fans:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0c8CK8zCHw
Still does a few-minute long report at least once a day and they are all well worth watching (and kicking a few bucks his way if you’re so inclined). Unlike college dropout “mom bloggers”,. he has written 22 books and has a long history in the documentary and newspaper industry.
REC is pure RNC
Once a candidate is mathematically out, he should be out.
Contested conventions is when the race is close in delegates and ballots to win.
Trump is hundreds ahead and will be hundreds ahead. He is millions ahead in votes and will be millions ahead, so I fail to see what Cruz is doing other than working real hard to PISS everyone off about him.
He would go far to fight until he mathwise out then get behind our guy.
Kasich too.
I though it would be fun to show a small video of last night during the Cruz speech someone posted. No on was listening to Ted. :<)

They may be paid by the various campaigns too, but probably not for the express purpose of getting on focus groups. I would expect the one who have better skills at oral persuasion are encouraged to apply for focus group slots too.
At any rate, the groups are presented as a "random" or "normal" cross section, but they are not. They are self-selected in the first place, then filtered by the press. Filtering does not include excluding people who do paid or volunteer work for a candidate.
Ok, why at Civic Centers, vs the Airport settings? Red Diaper Doper Babies are less likely to show at the Airfields, the venue is controllable. Logistics into Hartford suck IMHO. I am not sure Branard Field is big enough for Trump-Force-One and Pratt and Whitney’s airfield across the river is long gone which leaves only Bradley in Windsor which means a motorcade, unless he is using his helicopter as well...
