Donald Trump

DewieCox

He’s what happens when you’re never scolded as a child so no surprise that’s his reaction.

JPMorgan tells investors to prepare for rising odds of Trump win

Maybe these thugs should protest peacefully or get ready for 4 more years...maybe...who knows.   

Those are outrageous shift numbers.  5-10 points is basically 5 to 10 million voters that shift.  5 points in 'shy Trump voter' is 5 million.  I'm not sure I completely buy the polls tightening quite yet.  I've seen a little movement, but nothing significant in the stuff out this week.  So while I agree the violence is a net negative on Biden, these numbers seem large.  The reason I see it as a net negative is that moving attention to unrest from COVID is definitely a positive for Trump, even if Biden is able to blunt the argument like he did yesterday.  

I think they are tightening a little. We expected that. But some good ones out for Biden this morning, especially showing him up 10 in WI and this was done AFTER last week's nonsense. There has not been any live calling polls since the conventions and they're the most reliable. Supposed to get them soon though. 

Nate Silver was saying he doesn't necessarily buy that the rioting and stuff will help Trump because when it started in June, Trump's numbers dropped the more he inserted himself into the issue. But you never know. Biden needs to do more of what he did yesterday. 

Silver was also saying he doesn't put a lot of "stock" in the betting markets because they're like Vegas kind of...just setting the line to drum up action. Good time to buy Biden!

The optimist in me says Biden has been holding firmly at 50% since the spring while some Republicans have “come home” to trump. Clinton never held firm at 50%. In the summer she was closer to 40% and the fall at 45%. Weaker 3rd party candidates this year helps. But also Biden doesn’t have the negatives Clinton had.

The pessimist in me says trump is creating a huge narrative among the middle America echosphere that extends way 
beyond fox that America’s cities are lawless and in flames. Ironic how they’d vote about a part of the country they don’t live in and clearly don’t know what’s going on.

Posted on the other page,  but I think Biden is making a good argument that this is on Trump.  And when it gets to the debates,  the argument that it's Trumps America will be more credible than saying it's Biden's.

Apparently the former business owner still owns the property, so for once nothing to see here.

He doesn’t own the business, so yeah, something to see.

Owns the property and leases it to the new owner.  Whether the new owner breaks even or makes a million $ the building owner makes the same rent.

It was dishonest....definitely something to see there.

At the least, a misrepresentation of facts and using people as props. Team Trump Treason has already forgotten their names.

Exactly. The former owner was holding the sign for the business he does not own.

Its a sign (with his name on it) from the building he does own, which is his business currently, making money off the building. With the building destroyed, his tenant is not going to pay him rent, so his business is in fact affected.
So while it may not have been 100% full disclosure, there really wasn't anything tremendously deceitful. The left/media running with it will only fuel Trump's base with more "fake news" accusations.

Bob Woodward was, however.  RAGE

https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Rage/Bob-Woodward/

"President Trump has said publicly that Woodward has interviewed him. What is not known is that Trump provided Woodward a window into his mind through a series of exclusive interviews.

At key decision points, Rage shows how Trump’s responses to the crises of 2020 were rooted in the instincts, habits and style he developed during his first three years as president.

Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand witnesses, as well as participants’ notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents."

Sometimes you just want to marry into money and live quietly in your solid-gold home. But then the fast food eatin,' Diet Coke drink' bastard keeps on living and becomes president.

If Campbell’s Soup and Progresso were true patriots, they’d make their soup come in 1oz or 64oz cans, made of paper. But since they’re part of the Deep State, that ain’t happening. So I bet Team Trump Treason is drafting an EO to ban soup sales. NO SOUP FOR YOU!
