Where’s That Trump Third Act? (How Trump turns it around)
Dilbert ^ | 6/17/2016 | Scott Adams

Posted on 06/17/2016 6:43:11 AM PDT by GilGil

...imagine a movie in which the hero saves the world in the third act but in the process is exposed to a poison that will kill him. That’s a typical movie pattern. There has to be ONE MORE UNSOLVABLE problem before the movie ends.

And we’re seeing that unsolvable problem right now. Trump’s recent dip in the polls, along with his sky-high unfavorable ratings seems to make him unelectable. Even Republicans have a problem with Trump.

This isn’t the Republican nomination, where Trump could dominate. The general election is a new game. There’s no way for Trump to solve a problem this big, right?

That’s what you are supposed to think at this point in the movie.

Wait for the plot twist this summer. You’re

Without telling you how I feel. one way or the other.......I leave you with these two things.....number one.....the general election is more then five months away. Many things can happens in that period, for that amount of time is “forever” in politics. Number two.....POTUS Obama has now taken over the as the chief candidate for POTUS, pushing Hillary Clinton into the political holding pen.

Clinton will not utter one word without the approval and blessing of Obama!!! If you take note, Clinton has disappeared from the face of the earth, having three terribly attended rallies this week alone!!! Obama of course is in a state of sheer panic, that his his legacy is melting away before his very eyes. He has the media....but, this time he cannot be saved by anyone!!! I can assure you....Gun Control will not save him either!!!

Folks...gotta think strategically, not day by day!!! Finally, there will be many more deadly attacks led by the Radical, Islamic, Muslim Bortherhood/ISIS, Terrorists, on innocent American men, women & children...across the board.

See my #19. I suspect that your will agree.

I have been fighting with the one worlders--off and on for over 60 years, and can assure anyone who doubts my point, that they are not up to fighting back, if we really go after them.

Are you pointing to the same polls that had him losing all year. The same polls that picked Bibi. Hard to win when you have both Parties lined up against you for what, telling the truth?

Anyone who supports any indication of anyone other than the nominee to the party in this election is committing treason.

So, what are you going to do? Support a woman who has committed treason through her espionage against this nation? Or are you going to support and endorse the nominee we have?

If we had that kind of attitude in the 40s, we’d be speaking German today and America wouldn’t be a memory.

Its time to man up and if we don’t, we deserve worse than Cankles screeching at us for the next four years.

Huh?

Polls never showed Trump in the lead.

I don’t know what you’re smoking but FL is a swing state.

It went for Obama twice.

Most of the polls showed a tight race with Trump just ahead a few weeks ago, and now show a tight race with Hillary just ahead. It’s the way things go.

There’s a lot of work to be done, but “unelectable” talk is absurd. And hey, it’s not like Cruz or Rubio would be doing gangbusters in the polls right now.

Richard Armitage is the most recent high profile Republican to defect to Hillary.

Armitage is the one who stood by while they railroaded Scooter Libby for what he himself did. He is a fundamentally dishonest man. Colin Powell also knew and also remained silent. So, ditto for him.

The Repubs who are opposing Trump are by and large the very people we need to bring down. If you are on the side of Armitage, Powell, McConnell, Ryan, Boehner, and that crowd, you are in the enemy camp. You may as well vote Hillary.

Trump will do what Trump does best - attack the attackers and use common sense and truth against their delusional lies. The game is on....

You took the handle “Brilliant”.

Are you an irony fan, or just a sad clown?

I don’t believe I saw any violence at the Trump rally in Dallas.

Texas police do not allow crap like that. I just wonder how it will be in the liberal loony land of Houston today.

Personally I think Trump would do us all a favor if he pulled out.

Even if he is imploding, why should he pull out? Who would replace him? Mitt "Choked Like a Dog" Romney? All the loser candidates who were thrashed in the primary? At this point we win or lose with Trump.
