  • The average of all the polls has hardly moved the needle though. The race is tightening, I'm sure, but I don't see any sign of a Trump stampede.

    That is because the silent majority can't be seen or herd.

    No, no stampede. I'm just saying that all he has to do to drop in the polls is open his mouth, lol.

    I'm posting this here instead of the Hillary thread in case the factual article may cause some more election stress disorder in some.

    Oh, the DRAMA!!!

    Which is exactly why Alicia Machado was introducing Hillary today. They're poking Trump daring him to say something.

    Oh indeed.
    Trump has consistently said that even if he doesn't say or do anything he is in the press.

    Your choice of "herd" in regards to a silent majority is the most spot on commentary I've seen from you on here. Freudian slip?

    With that clever of word play, you don't need to be told that a majority is greater than half.

    Nope.
    Deliberate.

    Interesting in that it's the only national poll showing Trump ahead?

    Anyone notice how silent Trump is right now? The reason is obvious, but it's still pretty damn weird for Trump to be so quiet only a week before the election. It tells me that even he has finally acknowledged that if he does anything besides sit there and shut the fuck up, he is a massive liability who can only hurt his campaign. And he could still win. How incredibly ridiculous.

    When you say silent what you referring to? He literally not saying anything, him twittering or media coverage?

    Well obviously not media coverage. I just mean he's super quiet compared to usual. No twitter rants (there are still some tweets, but I am not seeing any that are actually from him directly, aka crazy ones), no giant rants for people to get in a tizzy about, etc.

    Good point...have you been in tune to Hilliary tweets last few days? It's like they traded places.

    Well I wonder how Trump is feeling now about the media. Wasn't it supposed to be rigged against him? Whoops, it's only rigged when the negative coverage is about him. He thinks like a spoiled 10 year old.

    So he is being quiet now and is still getting hated on.
    Bizzare land.

    Huh? You are aware that people have longer memories than gold fish, right?
    He is staying quiet because he is hoping that this non-issue of these non-Clinton emails will win the election for him, and because he knows all he has to do to for sure lose it no matter what is open his mouth.

    Maybe, I dunno I keep re-learning the same things over and over again.
    It's driving me nuts.
    I need this election to be over with.
    And Trump to win.

    I believe it's called "representing your constituents"

    Trump doesn't care about the media. Why is this hard for people to understand?
    What he cares about is why people are wondering how he feels about the media in the first place.
