This was posted in the "Media Group"...on September 6, about a month ago...Tues, 7:41 am
It was a lucky hunch...
_______________________________________________________________________________
Prediction..In October the MSM will shift very strongly in favor of Hillary...
Very strong shift in favor of Hillary in ways that we never could have expected.
MSM will report stuff on Trump that it was holding back..
Why?...after a certain date, the money for the commercials and all around advertising has been allocated and dolled out to the MSM...and then this one fact will become clear...
....Those that control the MSM, big media groups...do not want Trump as President of the U.S.A......
after they get their money...and it is in the bank....
......then.. the MSM will show how much it does not want Trump...first the money in the bank, then....the good of the U.S.A. comes next.....
...hit the link below..................thank you for reading this.....

But Trump should have sunk a hundred times already
Why this vid resonates more than the endless vile things he has said and done now has no reason
I couldn't be more glad that it is resonating
But it is egual to things that should have done him in earlier

(32,822 posts)The Trump campaign just cancelled a bunch of TV buys in battleground states. Scuttlebutt says they're out of money.
It's the exact same tactics as Trump University. Suck all the money out of your mark then turn on them.

(1,278 posts)On whether the Kellyanne Conway and Katrina Pierson's of the world that shill for and maybe even support Trump are actually going to be compensated for it. At least Scottie Nell Hughes, as big a surrogate for Trump as anyone, will get paid because she is employed by CNN, who does actually pay the people who work for them. Based on history, that is NOT a given with the Trump Organization.

(1,415 posts)From Sept 19 when she was at the nadir of the polls:
http://www.borntorunthenumbers.com/2016/09/why-hillary-will-win.html
This is after a terrible stretch in her race, and we know that all races oscillate. She will not continue to commit gaffes, cover up illnesses, and the like. She is a disciplined candidate who will more than likely stay out of the headlines for at least a spell, and even learn from her mistakes. Thus the polls are likely to revert back at least in part in her direction, as they did after the FBI report hurt her initially and then faded. This reversion back to some kind of norm would likely happen even if she had a more stable opponent.
And to that point, Donald Trump, while improving as a candidate, is hardly reliable, and it is not difficult to imagine more controversy ahead. And apart from his motor mouth, any number of issues could move front burner again, notably his taxes, charitable giving (or lack thereof), the outlandish math of his economic proposals, his racist and misogynist history, Trump U, his flip-flopping on immigration, his lies about, well, everything. Need I go on?

(9,527 posts)Official candidate ads are often purchased at favored rates leading up to the election and then at the lowest available rate 60 days out from the election. This doesn't apply to super PAC ads, only ad money spent by campaigns. Super PACs can be charged whatever the station can get, which is especially important considering stations have a buyer who has a mandated date of election day, so rates get drastically more expensive for super PACs closer to the election.
If the conspiracy was correct, the media would be trying to keep the race close so that outside groups, particularly on the Republican side since Trump isn't really running ads himself, would be buying ads at the highest rate.

(35,427 posts)You're right. America has to be stable. Instability is okay for all other countries on earth except America. The world would be thrown into chaos with President Trump.

(38,414 posts)Trump is unstable, unreliable, and extremely dangerous. The financial markets hate that. We know what happened in 2008 with Bush. A lot of very rich people lost lots of their wealth due to the crash. Instability is the worst thing for financial markets, and Trump would create that directly. The rich like nice stable markets so their wealth remains. Media owners and media leaders want stability for selfish reasons and Trump is unstable.
