Seeing as I've only been reviewing this thread for the past few days, what predictions have you made about Trump that have been correct?

I am not searching for all of them.

I predicted he could win the nomination when everyone said he had a snowball's chance in hell to win it.

I predicted that turnout would be higher for him.


I predicted that his comments toward McCain would not hurt him.

Just a few..

I didn't expect you to go through combing for every single one, these are fine.

For me, it's disheartening that you've been correct for all these. That isn't meant to be a shot to your acumen; like many here, I find Trump to be an extremely flawed candidate. However, I was incorrect in all of my predictions about Trump, so I have egg on my face nonetheless.

Yeah man, it's all a big front for the lizards

I never mentioned Lizards ever. If you don't want to respond to the post then don't.
You want to believe the BS be my guest. You want to deny what you can't handle go for it.
They did pay people to go there and clap for her acceptance speech and her turnout for any speech she does is so low it's apparent she has very little supporters anywhere.

MP, are you alleging that the people quoted didn't actually say what is attributed to them?

I don't understand. What quotes by what people?

My overall point here is the people doing the polling, at least the mainstream media are full of crap.
If anybody wants to believe the fake news they can but actual human turnout for HC's speeches are in the 100's.
Her opponents are packed to the hilt wherever he goes.
There is no way she's more than about 10 or 20% in an honest poll anywhere.

The question I asked people to ask themselves is why would everybody there clap for her shouting she would raise taxes on the middle class unless they were responding to a monitor or just being paid to be there and clap after every sentence.

Also I dont have the info at hand right now but what she said is true. It's estimated that her tax plan would raise taxes on the middle class by 1.3 trillion dollars.

Her major donors are the richest of the rich. Wall street banks, mega billioniares. They aren't giving her all that money to get their bank accounts hit.

I am willing to bet that the next wikileaks dump will be in October and they will show Pantsuit using her position of Secretary Of State as a "pay to play" operation.

Agreed. Who knows what Wikileaks has on Hillary? Any sense of privilege, political connections, or flinging of the gender card won't protect Crooked Hillary from that wooden stake being driven through her heart if the information dump is bad enough. Trump can win if he is more cautious about what he says in person or posts on social media while staying focused on his opponent.
 
Trump more and more looks like a plant who's deliberately trying to throw the whole fuckin' think for Hillary.

Naw. He's not a plant. He's just the guy Morell described in the article Mayhem posted:
"Even more important, the character traits he has exhibited during the primary season suggest he would be a poor, even dangerous, commander in chief," Morell said, naming Trump's "obvious need for self-aggrandizement, his overreaction to perceived slights, his tendency to make decisions based on intuition, his refusal to change his views based on new information, his routine carelessness with the facts, his unwillingness to listen to others and his lack of respect for the rule of law. The dangers that flow from Mr. Trump’s character are not just risks that would emerge if he became president. It is already damaging our national security."

Very true. This is probably Trump's last and best hope.

I predicted that his comments toward McCain would not hurt him.

How can you be sure they haven't, at least to some degree?

Can this be explained any other way?

Mr. P, lean very close to your speakers, turn up the volume if necessary, play it a few times if necessary. The word she uses is "aren't", not "are". If you listen for it, you will hear it.

Maybe the next batch will delineate how she planned to have Victor Thorn killed. Oh shit, now I've done it. Break out the tinfoil hats.

14 million primary voters.
Yes, very damaging.

Yes, very damaging.

So you're saying there's no chance that number would have been higher, and perhaps considerably so, otherwise?
I find that a little hard to fathom, considering how outspoken a great many conservative veterans and/or leaders were in denouncing it.
 
Trump: 'I'm afraid the election's going to be rigged'


Donald Trump on Monday took his complaints about the "rigged" political system one step further.

"I'm afraid the election's going to be rigged. I have to be honest," Trump told voters in Ohio, a crucial swing state.

Trump's comments Monday came as he decried Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders for endorsing Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary, even as some Sanders supporters have continued to resist unifying behind the nominee. Trump has sought to siphon off Sanders supporters and draw them to his campaign.

Trump added that he has heard "more and more" that the November election will be rigged -- suggesting to his supporters that the outcome of the election is out of the hands of voters.
Hillary Clinton's spokesman Brian Fallon mocked Trump on Twitter Tuesday morning, writing, "Even for a reflexive conspiracy theorist like Trump, this is pathetic. It's dangerous, too."

Trump during the primary repeatedly slammed the "rigged system" he claimed was working against his campaign to capture the Republican nomination for president. He then pivoted to using that language to decry the nomination process on the left, accusing the Democratic Party of colluding with the Clinton campaign to keep Sanders from winning that party's nomination.

Trump's comments during the primary bolstered the impression that Trump, a political outsider, was leading the charge against a corrupt political system.
But his latest comments could hurt Trump's general election campaign as his supporters might decide not to turn out to vote if the election is already "rigged" against their candidate.
Trump continued with the "rigged" theme during a Monday night interview on Fox News. Appearing on "Hannity," the Republican nominee suggested the potential for foul play in November. Trump pointed to the 2012 presidential election as a cause for concern.
"I've been hearing about it for a long time," Trump said. "And I know last time, there were -- you had precincts where there was practically nobody voting for the Republican. And I think that's wrong. I think that was unfair, frankly" for 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney.
"I'm telling you, November 8, we'd better be careful, because that election is going to be rigged," Trump added. "And I hope the Republicans are watching closely or it's going to be taken away from us."

I thought Trump was a winner. Winners don't foind excuses to their loss. Winners win. #LoserDonald

Trump he's not going to win (maybe he even doesn't want to win). But he's to dishonnest and to proud to admit that the blame of the loss will be on him so he blames the system, he pretends he can't win, he says there's some conspiracy for him not to win...
For once, Trump and the GOP establishment do agree, for once he uses the same classic move than the GOP establishment...

The electoral college will make sure Trump don't win, Clinton has already had the presidency handed to her. She could stop her campaign now and still win. I can't remember what state it was but Sanders won by 90% over Clinton and she still won the state? Something is seriously wrong with that. YOUR VOTE MEANS NOTHING!!!! I'll vote for Trump even though my time would be better spent on Freeones.

Proving once again how out of touch he is. There was nothing "unfair" or untoward about that at all. Those precincts had a lengthy history of voting that way.

In some Utah precincts Obama received no votes. Why isn't Trump bitching about that?

No. Never happened.

4 things to know about Donald Trump's new economic team

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-13-men-on-donald-trumps-economic-team/

Donald Trump unveiled a 13-person economic advisory team
in advance of a speech planned for Monday in which he has promised to share specific proposals for creating jobs and growing the economy.

The all-male team, which will be led by two campaign advisers, is stocked with billionaires, Trump business acquaintances, and five guys named Steve.

Trump, who has made no secret on the campaign trail of his disdain for over-priced policy experts, opted for a team dominated by real estate developers and Wall Street bankers and investors whom he apparently does not consider part of the mafia of Wall Street "fat cats" he so frequently assails from the stage.

Here's what you should know:

1. Team Trump is stocked with billionaires.

Trump will be advised by an economic team that includes four billionaires on the 2016 Forbes Billionaires List: Hedge fund investor John Paulson has an estimated net worth of $9.7 billion; bank founder Andy Beal is worth $9.4 billion; oil-and-gas man Harold Hamm is worth $5.1 billion; and hedge fund investor Steve Feinberg brings up the rear with a mere $1.1 billion.

And two more of the team members have appeared on the Forbes Billionaire List in the past and may well be worth $1 billion or more: Vornado Realty Trust chairman Steven Roth, and real estate investor and Colony Capital founder Thomas Barrack. (Forbes, meantime, pegs Trump's net worth at $4.5 billion.)

2. His economic advisers have a lot in common, demographically speaking.

Trump's economic team consists of 13 white men ranging in age from 50 (Federal Savings Bank chairman and CEO Stephen Calk) to 74 (Vornado's Roth). The average age is 62 for the 12 members for whom ages were available.

3. Several made their fortunes in real estate.

Trump recruited many of his advisers from the industry he knows best. Both Roth and Barrack built their fortunes with savvy bets on real estate, for instance. Howard Lorber is chairman of Douglas Elliman, the largest residential real estate brokerage in New York City, with more than 4,000 brokers who sell and rent, among many New York properties, Trump-branded condominiums. (Lorber is also a hot-dog mogul as chair of Nathan's Famous.) Paulson made his name -- and several billion dollars -- on a wildly successful bet against subprime mortgages on the eve of the Great Recession. And Steven Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs banker and film producer (involved with the movies American Sniper and Mad Max: Fury Road), also runs a hedge fund that steers a real estate "opportunity" fund for clients.

4. They don't have much experience in economics.

Only three members of the team have notable experience in economics: David Malpass is founder of an economics research firm based in New York, served in advisory roles in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations, and was a chief economist at Bear Stearns, which famously collapsed in the financial crisis; Stephen Moore is an economist and policy writer who was also president of the conservative Club for Growth; and Peter Navarro has a Ph.D in economics from Harvard and is a professor of economics and public policy at the Paul Merage School of Business at UC-Irvine.

The economist Justin Wolfers of the University of Michigan pointed out on Twitter that only two of the 13 advisors have studied economics beyond an undergraduate level.

The team of advisers will be led by Trump policy director Stephen Miller (another Steve!) and deputy policy director Dan Kowalski, both former Congressional Republican staffers.

"I am pleased that we have such a formidable group of experienced and talented individuals that will work with me to implement real solutions for the economic issues facing our country," Trump said in a statement accompanying the announcement.[/B]
Aren't these people the same people that Repubs are supposed to hate? And did I happen to notice Goldman Sachs mentioned in there? And Bear Stearns? Yeah, nothing to worry about there. :rofl2:

The funniest thing though is, of course, how quickly the sycophants kneel before their new messiah, even if he does go against everything they claimed to stand for for the last 8 years. It's like they're not even paying attention...as usual.:spin:
 
Mayhem, why don't you go out and get laid?


The Supreme Court is on the line, and that is all that matters at this point.


The expulsion of illegals (in addition to the wall) and his tough stance on Muzzies is just icing on the cake.


Any extension of Obama lunacy (which is what Hillary stands for) will lead America down a road that may lead to its demise.

Over the last month three anti-Clinton officials have been found dead under suspicious circumstances, amid a widespread media blackout.




DNC staffer, Seth Rich, who had blown the whistle on widespread election fraud within the Democratic Party was found murdered near his home earlier in July. Victor Thorn, a prominent writer and vocal critic of the Clinton’s, was shot to death at the beginning of August. And Shawn Lucas, an official who served the DNC with election fraud papers, was found dead on August 2nd.
