Trump getting ‘nuttier and nuttier,’ campaign insiders say
nypost ^

Posted on 08/03/2016 6:51:00 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Donald Trump is getting “nuttier and nuttier,” according to those within the tycoon’s presidential campaign, who say they are increasingly frustrated by his outrageous comments and behavior.

The Republican candidate has been engaged in a prolonged war of words with Khizr and Ghazala Khan — whose son, a US Army officer, was killed in Iraq in 2004 — which many inside the presidential campaign see as, at the very least, a total distraction.

“I did not think he’d be great in a general election, and thought there’d be episodes of paranoia/irrationality, but this is surprising for me,” one Trump operative told The Post.

“Trump is getting nuttier and nuttier,” the person added.

C’m on, this is BS. The “crazy meme” really took off yesterday when one of the Benghazi parents said that maybe Hillary doesn’t remember what she told the parents - an effect of her serious concussion.

This is a typical lib MO - if attacked, attack on the same issue but much harder. BTW anyone heard from HRC lately? The media storm
against Trump is so heavy now that it appears that there is only one candidate in the race.

-- 2. The Gop-e will stand with Hitlerly- will EXPAND on her talking points --

Amanda Caprenter has been suggesting what Hillary can do to win. She is making pretty good suggestions, offer a tax cut, for example. Carpenter will vote for Hillary.

The typical liberal mantra:
“Haven’t you heard?? Everyone is now ditching Trump cuz he’s crazy! Even his supporters, campaigners, and children are disowning him!! Everyone is!”

“It’s Murdoch’s POST. He’s on the board of an open borders group.

The jour-no-list talking points today:

1. Republicans planning for Trump exit
2. Trump asked about nuke war
3. Kahn
4. Trump not fit
5. GOP distancing itself

Go to all their sites and it’s the same message.

Buried is the story about Obama handing 400 million cash to the terrorist state of Iran.

Democracy requires a free media. We don’t have one.”


This.

Folks, STOP PAYING ATTENTION TO THE MEDIA!!! The media is, by and large, the propaganda arm of the DNC and the Hillary campaign (which, as we’ve seen, are one and the same - but they’re not talking about that, now are they?).

They aren’t talking about Obama paying pallet-fulls of freaking cash to the Iranians, nor about the emails that Wikileaks has that show that Hillary helped to arm ISIS.

Let that last one sink in: HILLARY HELPED TO ARM ISIS!!!!!

Keep your eye on the ball, which is to defeat Hillary. Hopefully, Trump will be able to harness his natural competitiveness to focus on the 2 most important things here: showing Hillary to be both corrupt and incompetent, and then showing that his plan will help our economy to recover and protect the American people. He needs to pound home the idea that this country is going in the wrong direction on a dozen different fronts, and that electing Hillary is voting for more of the same on steroids. He needs to not take the bait that the Dems are throwing up there, and the media are (by pre-arranged planning) going to attack him with for days on end. Stay on message!

They’re pulling the old Goldwater routine. I was too young to pay attention but it infuriated my parents.

-- Manafort on his way out? --

Well, there's a rumor that he is going to Hillary's campaign because he thinks Trump is literally insane. The real reason he is going to Hillary's campaign is that she pays better.

Note that I made all of that up, so it is as good as a news source.

The Trump is crazy story started at the exact same time yesterday with Morning Joe firing the first salvo and peaked with Obama a few hours later, then to be carried by the MSM stooges. I don’t believe in coincidences. As far as the Kahn story; true the MSM was keeping it alive tied to the crazy line, Trump needs to move onto the next item which I think is the Iran story and how Hillary took money to arm Iran and ISIS.

......”Where do they come up with this crap?”....

Because that is the campaign agenda to exaggerate everything about Trump to slow him down...to make every media talking point a negative about Trump....and to rage this against him.

They can’t use Hillary’s record on the issues....this is the only way they might take him down....and Trumps personality style is to hit back and they know it...so keeping him occupied on the defensive eats up the time he could be otherwise shooting holes in her record....it’s a tactic he’ll have to overcome because it’s his nature to be on the defensive when someones throwing stones. I’m seeing him begin to do that as recently he lets most of it slide off his shoulders....but it’s not easy for a man of his stature and personality to do so.

“The thing that sits in the White House is telling us, the American People our candidate is ‘unfit’ for that office, has he looked at himself in the mirror?”


Exactly. 7 1/2 years into this job, and Barack Obama is more unfit than he ever was for it. He is, by far, the worst President in living memory. Jimmy Carter almost looks good in comparison - almost. Obama only succeeded if he was working for this country’s enemies, and it is beginning to look more and more like this has been the case from Day 1. The economy is in a shambles - 47 million people, 1 in 6, on Food Stamps! Our military is undermanned, under trained and without sufficient spares and reserves to fight any significant conflict. This nation has NO respect throughout the world, thereby increasing the danger level. Last (though this is an incomplete list), he has admitted tens of thousands of potential enemies without vetting them - putting all the rest of us in danger.

Obama is the one who is unfit for the office, not Donald Trump. Trump will be a magnificent President, one who actually loves this country and will fight for it - if only he can beat Hillary in November. Let’s help him get this done!
