Post Debate Spin

Focus Group reaction: Trump support doubled. Hillary support halved.

One of the biggest knockouts ever seen in a Presidential debate

I did not see her get rattled
I feel good about defending her performance tonight

Isn't Larry Sabbato now aaying that it looks as if Donald the Grabber will even lose OHIO?

Doesn't that totally doom the Grabbber's chance of ever grabbing anyone in the White House?

One key thing on a lot of people's minds:
Do we really want a pu**ygrabber in the White House?

KD, Unemployment rises said...

Today, 7 0ut of 10 Americans say they have $1,000 or less in savings, this I know is what you freaking financial dullards believe is a "Booming Economy".



KD said...

Do we really want to put a successful job creator in the White House? " Jane


I will answer that, Yes.


Now, that I have answered yours how about answering my question Jane, surely you can.

KD said...

"go fuck yourself"?
That is the voice of hitting a nerve with a meat cleaver.


Hillary tax plan only raises tax rate, it does not lower tax rates on anyone.


However, the Job Creator and Wealth Builder has a tax rate plan that drops rates on the middle income earners and all but eliminates Federal tax rates for the low income earners.

“Her and Obama whether you like it or not, the way they got out of Iraq, the vacuum they left, that's why ISIS formed in the first place. They started from the little area and now they are in 32 different nations. Congratulations. Great job.” — Donald Trump
U.S. forces pulled out of Iraq in 2011 when the Iraqi government would not assure legal protections for U.S. troops. The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, which now controls large swaths of both countries, has been the focus of a U.S.-led air campaign since 2014. But the terrorist group was an offshoot of Al Qaeda in Iraq, and swore allegiance to Osama Bin laden in 2004, following the U.S.-led invasion to topple Saddam Hussein.
The group does not operate in 32 countries. A report by the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service in late June concluded that in addition to Iraq and Syria, the group now has “affiliates in several other countries,” most significantly in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Nigeria, Afghanistan, and Yemen, and has attracted a network of global supporters.
“Since 2014, some armed groups have recognized the Islamic State caliphate and pledged loyalty to (ISIS leader] Abu Bakr al Baghdadi,” CRS says. “Groups in Yemen, Egypt, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Afghanistan, and Nigeria have used the Arabic word “wilayah” (state/province) to describe themselves as constituent members of a broader IS-led caliphate. The implications of such pledges of loyalty to the Islamic State on groups’ objectives, tactics, and leadership structures appear to vary and may evolve.”

TWO MORE ITEMS OF BAD NEWS FOR YOU TRUMPERS:

Hillary Clinton has opened up a double digit lead nationally.

Ryan is saying he will no longer defend Trump and advises all down ticket Repugs to look out for themselves.

R.I.P. Donald the Grabber.

Trump is on issues that the American voters care most about, Liberals are unable to defend Obama/Hillary on any of these, I understand why.

Honest, decent, truthful Rev. said...

Ch, I understand that Ryan's hour long conference call with fellow Repugs was "nervous."

Are you nervous now, Ch?

In this season the "smart" political move has inevitably been the wrong political move.

I have to admit Trump amazes me. Any other candidacy would have been dead as a doornail but not Trump's.

He not only told the establishment and media to go fuck themselves when they called on him to step down, he got off mat and scored a knockout in the debate.

Bonus Quote of the Day
“The real campaign manager, in fact, the entire time, has been Jared Kushner, who is still the real campaign manager, even today.”

McConnell Not Yet Advising Break from Trump

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) “is counseling individual senators and candidates about how to position themselves alongside Trump — without dictating strategy — as he talks them through the political perils of this election cycle,” Politico reports.

“Officials at the National Republican Senatorial Committee spent all weekend talking to candidates and campaign aides, urging them to be prepared to talk about Trump wherever they go but declining to offer explicit advice on whether Republicans should pull their support from Trump.

“Republicans are still waiting for later this week to see just how bad the damage is in battleground states before they consider reevaluating their support for the Republican nominee, who was caught on tape in 2005 boasting about sexual conquests and describing grabbing women’s genitals.”

Better not wait too long, Mitch. ;-)

Trump Was Told Russia To Blame For Hacks

“During Sunday’s debate, Donald Trump once again said he doesn’t know whether Russia is trying to hack the U.S. election, despite Friday’s statement by the U.S. intelligence community pointing the finger at Putin — and despite the fact that Trump was personally briefed on Russia’s role in the hacks by U.S. officials,” NBC News reports.

C.H. Truth said...

The NBC/WSJ poll was a whopping 500 "registered" voter (446 likely voter) poll that has a margin of error upwards of 5%.

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting to see if this "double digit" lead holds through their next full polling result.

As of right now... we have seen seven polls released since the audio surfaced. Four of them have shown gains for Clinton (Rasmussen, NBC/WSJ, YouGov, People's Pundit), two of them have shown gains for Trump (SurveyMonkey, Morning Consult), and one has remained exactly as it was (LA Times).

READ THIS QUICK BEFORE CH DELETES IT:

JAMES; What about the fact that she now leads in Ohio?
And in NC?
And in Florida?
_________

"...polling in [Ohio] is showing that Donald Trump’s lead from a few weeks ago has evaporated, and the most recent surveys actually have had Clinton ahead. We’ve also caught wind of some unreleased polling that mirrors these results. If Clinton has a national lead of around four or five points, there’s good reason to think that Ohio will end up voting for her, even if it has a redder tint than usual...

"If Clinton wins Ohio, Trump has NO path to victory. No Republican has ever won the White House without it, and, particularly in this election, Ohio’s demographics should make it relatively low-hanging fruit for the Republicans. So we now have Trump as THE UNDERDOG IN FLORIDA, NORTH CAROLINA, AND OHIO, three electoral vote-rich states that he absolutely needs to have any chance to win."
--Larry Sabato

Commonsense said...

That;s because the survey wasn't in the field long enough to get a decent sample.

Looks like they cut it short so they can ride the "Trump imploding" narrative before it was too late.

Lawmaker Sees More Dropping On Trump

Rep. Scott Rigell (R-VA) told the New York Times there was “a general sense in the House that more humiliating disclosures about Mr. Trump were likely to come before Nov. 8, Election Day.”

Said Rigell: “There’s a consensus, even among supporters, that the likelihood of something else breaking in a very embarrassing and negative fashion, is certainly better than 50-50. The conference, members, et cetera, are bracing themselves for another salvo of this.”

_________________

No One Answering the Phones at the RNC

“As Donald Trump’s campaign unravels, the Republican National Committee has gone dark — failing to give GOP vendors guidance on whether to keep working for the nominee or to move resources into down-ballot races, and not even returning calls from party members ahead of a critical late-afternoon meeting about the way forward,” Politico reports.
________________

Trouble for Downballot Republicans

The Lid: “But here’s another wrinkle that further complicates that bleak picture for the GOP: Despite the fact that Trump is now losing by double digits, fully two-thirds of Republicans say that others in their party should stick with the nominee. Just nine percent say that downballot Republicans should renounce their support of Trump, and 14 percent say they should call on Trump to quit. That’s a very, very tough place for Republicans to be right now.”
