President Obama narrowly defeated Mitt Romney in states like Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. For example, if 50,000 votes went the other way in Ohio, or 38,000 votes in Iowa, those states would have cast their Electoral College ballots for Romney.

The nevertrumpers are fading into obliviion, which is better than they deserve.

Trump’s attacks on the media didn’t hurt his campaign one bit. The only institution regarded with more contempt than the government is journalism. Last I heard, ebola was more popular. In criticizing the press, Trump was doing what Trump does best: acting as a mouthpiece for an increasingly angry public.

And it tremendously helps Trump that Hillary Clinton--besides her penchant for attracting scandal like likes to honey--can't escape the ineptness of the Obama Presidency. The mess created by the Black Lives Matter movement and the increasingly frightening ISIS-related terrorist attacks at also driving voters to Trump in a big way.

I didn’t know that.
Trump is acting a LOT more presidential lately and it could be the new management. I am glad.
Pence was a great pick. Seems likable and looks like a trustworthy statesman.

Bob Dole says Trump owes some people an apology. He also says he needs to bring more people into the party.
I can’t stand these people. Live your remaining days as a WWII hero but shut up about the present and the future.

follows a bumpy stretch where personal attacks on the media and a federal court judge hurt his campaignTo the untrained eye maybe. This strategy has managed to cause Hillary's 50 million spending on negative ads to be wasted. He uses the media to focus on what he wants them to focus on. By doing this his competition never gets any traction. The belief that these are mistakes made without Trump weighing the cost vs benefit of each is to underestimate Trump.
