Trumps background crowds try to look browner

I know a lot of you probably dont watch Trumps rallies.
For me, they are like train wrecks and I still keep waiting for a total meltdown.
Anyway, since his new "black and brown outreach", I have noticed that they are putting as many people of color as they can (maybe the only ones they can find in the crowd) right behind him so they are picked up by the cameras.

Just imagine being a Trump staffer right before an event roaming the crowd trying to find people of color and convince them to move and stand behind Trump.
"Um, excuse me, um um...the campaign is...um , really glad ur here, and Mr.Trump would love for you to come...um um...stand, like, you know, right behind him....um, and, yeah, I hate to ask this, but, um um,.you really do support Mr.Trump right?....like, um youre not a secret Hillary supporter here to just...you know...I mean...you know...disrupt things?"

As an old white guy, someone please tell me something.

Lately I've been seeing several African American Pastors all over tv shilling for Trump.
And they just make things up about Pres Obama and Hillary spewing hate.

Do you see them as genuine or fake people just on his payroll?

What was Outrageous yesterday is forgotten today.

You could see it coming right?
Hillarys lead in the battleground states was just too big.
So, the media was looking for something, anything, from the Trump campaign where they could help make it a horse race again.
And, now it's gosh shucks Little Miss Kellyanne.
Isn't it wonderful how she got Donald to...cough..kinda sorta ...apologize for something...he regretted....not sure what it was...but wasn't that great..
Republicans can now all come home now....

Those outrageous things he's been saying for months are forgiven....or they were minor mistakes, or just exaggerations, or just an act to rev up his base, etc etc.

Forget what we said just yesterday that the Gop should forget the Prez race and just concentrate down ballot.
Forget that we have said that Trump is the most unqualified candidate ever.
That is so yesterday.

Today, the Donald has risen from the ashes on Kellyannes wings.
Now, what about that Clinton Foundation. Isn't it just horrible?
Ooh...the polls should really tighten up again. And, the media whores all will rejoice.

They will continue to polish the turd.

Excuse the crude reference.
But, it is apropos. You can't polish one.
But, most Repubs and most media members (who desperately wants a close horse race again) now are glowing about Trumps outreach to blacks and his campaign staff.

Yes, going to an all white audience fifty miles from Milwaukee and saying he would keep the nasty illegals from taking black jobs was awesome? Seriously?
Hiring Brannon, a piece of filth from Breitbart, was brilliant? Seriously?


Hillarys FBI notes from email investigation will be terrible for her? Seriously?
That ship has sailed and most Americans don't care.
Yes, she screwed up by using the separate sever.
So, the hell what?
The Clinton Foundation has some nepotism attached to it?
So, the hell what?

We have two choices in this election.
A lifetime public servant who is eminently qualified.
A narcissist, who may have other serious mental issues, who is overwhelmingly unqualified.

But, that doesn't matter. It's just the worlds most important job interview. No biggie.
Just so they get their horse race.
Sigh!

I hate to bring up Donald's hands....

But, where is his wedding ring?
Has he never worn one?
Did Melania leave him?

My Republican brother may vote for Hillary.

We don't often talk politics.
He's staunch repub.
Thinks they are the makers, and Dems are the takers.
But, he really only cares about the economic wing of party.
He makes very good money and wants to keep it all.
Not racist or a fearminger although a little misoginistic.

Anyway, he is embarrassed by Trump and thinks he's batshit crazy.
Hates Hillary and Bill. Just because. He doesn't even know exactly why.
But, he says that his party needs to be punished for not picking Bush, Kasich, or Rubio.

Says he might vote for Hillary and then come home and bathe in bleach and not tell any of his buddies what he's done. ....hahaha!

Where is Evan McWhoever?

Since the Never Trump Republicans announced their new candidate (after the failed David French tease), has anybody heard from Evan?
Does he have any real money behind him?

Looks like Guiliani has replaced Christie

as Trumps main boy Friday.
Christie has been noticeably absent lately.
Guiliani has been the main hatchet man lately and has now been named "the negotiator" to set the terms under which Trump would agree to the three debates.

So when does this McMullin guy name a running mate?

How bout Carly?
Her bruises have probably heeled now from that fall she took off of Cruz podium.

Has the disabled reporter that Trump mocked spoken out?

Would love to see him do an ad and do the interview circuit.
