Trump not waging a campaign is what is most demoralizing...not polling numbers. The polling numbers are just a symptom of him not waging a campaign and allowing Hillary and the media free reign with no competing message. The people who will decide the election are not the people going to rallies or even watching them...it is the people who are reached at home. Hillary is the only voice reaching them at this point and has been the only voice reaching them for months. For example, right now, nationwide, many millions of Americans are watching the Olympics. The only candidate reaching voters with multiple ads promoting herself and blasting Trump is Hillary. This is the message they are seeing over and over again - and it is the only message. Those already committed to Trump are obviously going to be very demoralized wondering where their candidate is. And those passively watching will indeed have their perceptions affected of the candidates. Hence, this is why one poll after another shows that Hillary and the media have, despite all of Hillary’s scandals and criminal issues, managed to get Trump’s own negatives even higher than Hillary’s...that’s not small accomplishment...and Trump has just sat back and allowed it to happen - allowing his opponent a huge advantage in reaching people in their homes and he chooses not to do the same, and allowing others to define him and his message. Do you not see the problem with this?

Trump not waging a campaign is what is most demoralizing..


Scum GOPe fragging Trump for months on end and campaigning for Hillary Rotten criminal isn’t most demoralizing? “Principled Conservatives” AWOL from the battlefield 80 before CINC Hillary and her SCOTUS picks become reality isn’t most demoralizing? There are A LOT of things more demoralizing than Trump’s campaign. That you focus your anger on him reveals your true agenda.

We need all hands on deck now. Conservatives stand and fight. Cry baby surrender monkeys and self interested careerists cut and run. The choice is yours, FRiend.

I claim no expertise. I only have my impressions based on observation, reading
journalists I have come to trust, and history.

To say Trump is not waging a campaign I take to mean he is not waging your kind of campaign:
the traditional one, using TV advertising as the primary megaphone.

True enough. But it worked for the primaries.

Trump's ground campaign is mightily impressive; even you must admit this. Two or three
big events per day, plus regular TV & radio interviews interspersed. The crowds are
enormous. Is this not a kind of poll?

Much of the Left is dispirited, and will stay home. She generates no enthusiasm, only
duty, which will translate into a depressed vote. This not yet taking into consideration
more damning info coming out on her.

The country's overall mood is a quest for change from the malaise. Certainly historical
after two terms of one party, although Bush 1 did prevail after 8 yrs of Reagan, but
Reagan was extremely popular to the end, unlike the Alinsky protege who has running
on 2 cylinders.

Trump will get 73 million votes to win big.

This is how I see it. Trump is the man of the hour, and more than 50% of the country knows it.
