They are trying to bog Trump down playing defense but it isn’t working. he’s letting his surrogates handle that and he needs to stay on message.

Exactly so. Trump has stepped up his surrogate game in a very big game and he is staying on message. this is a very big change for Trump and a very effective and good one.

Frankly, I have begun to wonder how the press will speak to President Trump.

They have gone so low that they have themselves in a locked box now.
________________

Exactly so.

The press is in a corner and when Trump becomes president he will make them beg for crumbs. The media is simply not as effective as before. They have a 6% approval rating.

KKK Byrd

The Democrats made him leader of the Senate!
They referred to him as the 'conscience of the Senate'

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

In 1942, 24-year-old Byrd joined the Ku Klux Klan (KKK), whose parades in Matoaka, West Virginia, he had witnessed in his childhood. He was unanimously elected Exalted Cyclops, or leader, of his local chapter.[8]

Byrd, in his autobiography, attributed the beginnings of his political career to this incident, although he lamented that they involved the Klan.

According to Byrd, a KKK official told him "You have a talent for leadership, Bob... The country needs young men like you in the leadership of the nation." Byrd recalls that "suddenly lights flashed in my mind! Someone important had recognized my abilities! I was only 23 or 24 years old, and the thought of a political career had never really hit me. But strike me that night, it did."[4]

He participated in the KKK during World War II, holding the titles Kleagle (recruiter) and Exalted Cyclops [the top officer in the local Klan unit]. He did not serve in the military during the war, working instead as a welder in a Baltimore, Maryland shipyard, where he helped build warships.[citation needed]

Byrd commented on the 1945 controversy about racially integrating the military. Byrd, when he was 28 years old, wrote to segregationist Senator Theodore Bilbo, of Mississippi, vowing never to serve in such a military:

"Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.[5]"

He had earlier written "I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side".[6][7]

__________________________________________________________

From the Washington Post:

"Byrd said in the Dec. 11, 1945, letter -- which would not become public for 42 more years with the publication of a book on blacks in the military during World War II by author Graham Smith -- that he would never fight in the armed forces "with a Negro by my side." Byrd added that, "Rather I should die a thousand times, and see old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.."..."

"during the general election campaign, Byrd's GOP opponent uncovered a letter Byrd had handwritten to Green, the KKK Imperial Wizard, recommending a friend as a Kleagle and urging promotion of the Klan throughout the country. The letter was dated 1946 -- long after the time Byrd claimed he had lost interest in the Klan. "The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia," Byrd wrote, according to newspaper accounts of that period. Byrd makes no mention of the letter in his new book."

Murdoch globalist propaganda network is a Clinton infomercial now outside a few .
Murdoch gave the Crime foundation millions and his

Olde Scotty Rasmussen is unemployed and needs the gig now.
He is a pure establishment pollster .

Ignore the desperate man .

Notice how Fox leftist radio news peddles only polls with Trump behind.
Ailes is gone and Murdoch and hiss left wing son are Clinton cheerleaders.

Get used to the lies piling up.

“She knows the media is as corrupt as she is,, not to worry.”

She knows the media are her paid employees. Soros’ money is endless.

Of course, that only supports your “corrupt” contention.

Do recall Scotty running around predicting a Romney victory in 2012.
I do.

He is a bad hack and needs a pay check.

It’s gonna be great. The press-room will be raucous as Trump enters, but will immediately fall silent as he casts a stern eye around the MFM’s and barks out one word, “Bad!”

Instantly half of them will put their tails between their legs and duck their heads, leaving a little puddle behind as the leave.

I really like Kellyanne, sharp energetic lady. Trumps gets a feather in his Cap for the decision to hire her.

Trump I realize has a lot to do but doing an ad on Byrd would totally shut down the Klan thing.

One main consolation: the pundits are always wrong about Trump. Have they ever gotten it right?

Leave it to Freepers to pick my spirits right back up. Thanks to all.

Why was Rupert ignoring the polls that Trump is either tied in or leading in?
