He has about a 40% approval rating in Indiana, so even his own state doesn't like his insane anti-gay crusade.SportsAndLady;1804945 wrote:Pence's gay counseling comment got way overblown by the left-wing media. That being said, Mike Pence is a religious nutjob with a vendetta against gays. But to be fair, he's the Governor of Indiana...you kinda have to have those qualities.
But Trump will probably raise 1/4th what Hillary will....and somehow I don't think he's reaching deep into his pocket to fund his campaign (and not just because I don't he's worth anywhere near $10B).Spock;1804950 wrote:HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything.

lol exactly. Pure deflection. Also Hillary shouldn't be concerned if Russia has those emails. They were about wedding planning and yoga after all.SportsAndLady;1804947 wrote:I'm not a Trump guy, but this media bashing on Trump's "Russia" comments are laughable. How much money did they receive by the Clinton Foundation to take a CLEARLY sarcastic, joking comment on Russia and these emails and turn it into a serious "espionage" accusation? lol I mean come on
Trump is pretty predictable at this point, so I doubt he has anything up his sleeve.Spock;1804950 wrote:HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything. DT has something up his sleeve.
The first debate is going to be awesome
Apparently the DNC hired people from Craigslist to fill empty seats from the Bernie protestors.iclfan2;1804949 wrote:Bill Clinton fell asleep during Hillary's speech last night because she is a very boring speaker.

You actually believe that? I recall something similar going on during the RNC.like_that;1804957 wrote:Apparently the DNC hired people from Craigslist to fill empty seats from the Bernie protestors.
I doubt Bill was sleeping though.

Ha, he may not have been sleeping but it's pretty funny that it appears he was.like_that;1804957 wrote: I doubt Bill was sleeping though.
No it was another CL joke that was circulating. Can't remember what exactly.bases_loaded;1804960 wrote:I think you are confusing that with this.

Probably not true, but it wouldn't shock me. People do get paid to protest and the convention had a lot of empty seats that they were trying to hide.Automatik;1804959 wrote:You actually believe that? I recall something similar going on during the RNC.
Considering the DNC hacking just revealed they rigged the election for Hillary, it's no surprise people are pissed off.iclfan2;1804949 wrote:Bill Clinton fell asleep during Hillary's speech last night because she is a very boring speaker.

Trump is going to clean house in the debates. I don't know how much sway debates at this point will have in the GE but I can't see how Hillary is going to be competitive.Spock;1804950 wrote:HC has spent over $100 million in the last month on attack adds, Trump hasnt really done anything.

Last time I checked, Trump has barely spent any of his own money and the money he has put into the campaign is in the form of a loan.gut;1804953 wrote:But Trump will probably raise 1/4th what Hillary will....and somehow I don't think he's reaching deep into his pocket to fund his campaign (and not just because I don't he's worth anywhere near $10B).
Trump loses a close election in which Hillary outspends him 4-to-1 and he'll happily declare victory and privately laugh how he really didn't even want to be POTUS.
I saw somewhere that the amount of free pub he's received could be worth as much as $2B. He's all over the news - doesn't need to run ads.sleeper;1804968 wrote:Last time I checked, Trump has barely spent any of his own money and the money he has put into the campaign is in the form of a loan.
If you look at cost per vote, Trump will break and hold the record on this forever.
Record numbers turned out in the primary.gut;1804970 wrote:But watch what will happen. Trump could be neck-and-neck in the polls and get slaughtered on election night because his ground game and "get out the vote" is almost non-existent.
If nothing else, this is evidence that marketing is more important than actual substance in elections.gut;1804969 wrote:I saw somewhere that the amount of free pub he's received could be worth as much as $2B. He's all over the news - doesn't need to run ads.
Guy knows how to get the press. Most candidates don't like to do many interviews or pressers because their message has to be so carefully refined and controlled. Trump loves it, doesn't worry about what he says or how he's perceived....and he gets all the invites he wants because it's good for ratings.
