"Idiot" indeed if he really thinks that: He's completely missed the dynamic of this election.
More likely he's just in the Establishment tank.
In line right now at the Colorado Springs Pence rally. Line is long. Half men half women. Zero Hillary bumper stickers or signs to be seen on the way to the rally. Several Trump signs that seem to be starting to multiply. I got a couple thumbs up for the Trump sticker on my car. And yes, they were thumbs and not fingers.
I don’t have time to watch much of the “dead time” in these rally vids, but from what I’ve seen, they seem pretty “dead”. Too bad they don’t try to get the crowd going in singing patriotic songs or something.
This was a very good speech by Trump. He almost went off the rails a couple times, such as when talking about Biden, but the closing minutes were great: Right up there with Reagan. Wish he could have gotten in more like that in the last debate...
Still, this would be terrific stuff to send to friends, telling them when in the vid, approximately, to start watching, so they don’t have to wade through all of it. (With luck, they’ll be curious and watch more.)
