Inside the Beltway: Hillary’s campaign: ‘Nothing short of a disaster’
Washington Times ^ | 9/15/2016 | Staff

Posted on 09/15/2016 5:53:09 PM PDT by GilGil

The repercussions just keep rolling in: Hillary Clinton’s recent decision to call Donald Trump’s fans a “basketful of deplorables” has turned into “nothing short of a crisis” for the Democratic presidential nominee, says veteran pollster John Zogby. Ah, but it gets worse. “The entire fainting and pneumonia issue is nothing short of a disaster,” he continues, noting that the distress and drama of Mrs. Clinton’s health challenges have prompted voters to ask visceral questions about her truthfulness and judgment.

Embedded in the article is an extended quote of Howie Carr. Here:

“You may be a deplorable if you stand for the National Anthem. Or if you know all the words to the Pledge of Allegiance, especially, ‘under God.’ If you’re deployable, you’re definitely deplorable. Saying Merry Christmas — Deplorable with a capital D!” writes Mr. Carr.

“You may be a deplorable if you wouldn’t mind showing some ID at the local precinct before you vote. You are most assuredly a deplorable if you have more than one job,” he continues.

“Nothing says deplorable like the National Rifle Association. You may be a deplorable if you don’t think you should have to press one for English. Or if you believe that good fences make good neighbors. You’re most definitely a deplorable if you have an American flag flying in your front yard. You are a deplorable if you believe All Lives Matter. If you’ve never needed a ‘safe space,’ or heeded a ‘trigger warning’ — you’re deplorable.”

If I could choose a single thing that would sink Her Heinous utterly, it would be that masterpiece of smirking condescension. Turns out there's a lot of votes in that basket of deplorables. And we've had enough.

We worked hard here in Tennessee to make sure Al Goreghoul would not win his ‘home state’.

I remain cautiously optimistic, but the voters have to show up at the polls.
There has to be a LANDSLIDE for this thing to go uncontested. She is a snake and when you cut a snakes head off it still continues to slither.
I’m even concerned with early voting, vote on Election Day so the media has to show the lines around buildings.
Pole watchers at EVERY precinct watching for antics to take place.

Go Trump!

When I said,”If I know Trump he is beginning to smell the kill and until the election he is going to ramp up his carpet bombing of Hillary until she has been vaporized out of existing in her current form.”

Does that sound like Trump is going to coast? Or did you not read that part. Trump is taking nothing to chance and he will savage Hillary until her political life has left this incarnation!

I never said that Trump was going to coast. What I'm saying is that the rest of us shouldn't get complacent.

>>Trump will just appear very presidential and confirm people should vote for him. Not much else!<<

I don’t believe it. Trump’s too thin skinned. Hillary hired pshycologist to help her get under his skin.

Trust me, Trump WILL respond with an attack on Hillary after being attacked.

All we can hope for is Trump doesn’t say something really really stupid.

And as it turned out, Gore not being able to carry Tennessee was decisive in 2000., If he had carried Tennessee, he would have won the election regardless of how the Florida recount turned out.

And in that case, we may not have even seen a Flordia recount in that case, because it would not have decided the election.

1) Listening to her concession speech

2) Watching Trump get sworn in as president while Obama and Obamette have to stand there as power transitions to Trump.

Those are two delicious visions. Trump wins in a historic landslide as the polls continuously widen until Nov.8th.>>. she won’t give a concession speech. jerkoff johnson will declare the election invalid due to hacking of voting machines in PA, OH, FL, etc. key states. Then Obama takes over for 6 more months ....

Totally doubt it. Trump has improved exponentially with Kellyanne. The debates will be non events except to confirm Trump is the best guy fir the job. Hillary is already a corpse.

Bringing Al Gore on the campaign trail to help you in the 2016 election is like digging up Babe Ruth’s remains to help you win the World Series.

Maybe you are right that Trump responds. Maybe you are wrong. But the idea that Trump is "too thin skinned" is simply preposterous. Never, in modern politics, has someone endured the non-stop displays of contempt and hatred from the entire DC establishment, such as Trump has done. This unrelenting assault on every aspect of his character and his intelligence has come not just from the Democrats, but the media, academia, popular culture, his own party, virtually the entire army of consultants in and around DC, thinktanks, and almost every other influential public group (outside of military, first responders, and churches). The fact that he has put up with this 24/7 nonsense without ever once getting irate or out of control displays a far greater restraint, and thick-skinnedness, than any other politician, with the possible exception of Reagan, could have even dreamed of.

There are plenty of valid criticisms of Trump. Being too thin skinned is not on that list.
