Trump Slump

Politico: Post-debate polls show Trump slump - Clinton’s bounce appears to have staked the Democratic nominee to a low-to-mid-single-digit advantage nationally. By Steven Shepard

Considering how poorly he did this week you'd think she would have jumped in the polls considerably, but alas she didn't. This means that the two sets of base voters are fixed. They're fighting for those last 15 % that are up for grabs. At the moment she has the upper hand, but things as I see it are extremely volatile. It's still her's to lose.

He'll start to pull out all the stops now and go after her and Bill with "the Monica strategy" hoping to drive the media back into 1998 mode where it's Monica and Bill 24/7. Will the media resist? I think a significant portion of it will as long as she doesn't start slipping in the polls again. They tried to GORE her in Aug. and it worked when she was sick. These are shit kickers and punks who will kick the crap out of you if you fall down. She has to be seen fighting back every moment against this thug and his media allies. It's a cage fight now folks no rules no backing off.

I could be wrong but the Bill Monica stuff is a loser. First off many of the voters were children then, it's ancient history. Just look at how that whole mess also took down so many in the Congress. Ultimately it was the GOP that held office at that time that suffered. Also if he does do that, then he opens himself up to the same attack as does Ghoul-ianni, and their records are not quite the pristine delicate flowers either. Clinton as far as I know, she has no sexual closet, maybe she does and it will come out now, but it's not her. Then take a look at Melania, WTF, shes' posing naked everywhere, Trump has shit on a stick to stand on about this. The media is not going to let this be a one sided thing either because Trump's salacious escapades are far more money grubbing MSM quality than Clinton. Bill Clinton slept with anybody lol, Trump went after the heiresses, starts, models. You tell me, what interests America more.

Besides Bill Clinton is not running for president and what you end up with is the present candidate versus the has been president. This is a lose lose for Trump so let's hope he does it.

Jim Sande said...

One more thing - this is a weak idea born out of desperation, it's a last ditch attempt to smear Clinton with America's favorite pastime, the sexual dalliance, which allows Americans to simultaneously be judgmental and voyeurs.

I agree, but it doesn't change what he's going to do. Drumpf has used this tactic all yr. and gotten away with it. The media eats it up and he knows it plus he dominates the news cycle for free! At this pt. everyone is used to his obnoxious attitude and behavior so he just keeps it up.

Jim Sande said...

There's a shift going on though, the media seems to be much more suspicious of Trump.

Jim Sande said...

And by that I mean, recently - they are more suspicious in recent weeks.

They smell a train wreck up ahead. This guy is his own worst enemy, people in the media might have enjoyed the $$ & the entertainment for awhile , but as we get closer to Nov. 8th he's going to start to appear more and more like the monster he has always been and they know they'll be his first target if elected.
