It’s not likely to find anything on CNN that’s favorable or even even-handed when it comes to President Donald Trump.
That’s one reason when it happens, it’s noteworthy.
But also, it’s incredibly significant information that gives us a great window into what a very important group of Americans thinks about the election and Trump.
If you just listened to the liberal media, pretty much all you would hear is polls show that Joe Biden is ahead.(Snip)
That’s why it’s incredibly important to hear what real people are thinking.
So listen to what Rich Thau, a focus group moderator, the moderator of the Swing Voter Project, has to say.

That only 22 out of 33 of these swing voters would vote Trump over Biden makes me wonder about the intelligence of the other eleven. Since no one can name one thing Biden has done in fifty years, why vote for him now? I like Trump because most every other leader in the world doesn't care for him, but they respect him. That's good enough.

Lordy, this article describes me! I am hoping a landslide for Trump shows the left what America really is all about.

If the professional polling the public never sees indicates this is true, expect a quick flip by Democrats. So far it appears the common Dem thread, local to national, is "America is racist". And so the social justice/BLM/Antifa crowd destroys statues of men like Gandhi, labels him as racist. That mushy middle is getting the "wrong message"...and that messaging for Dems will have to change. It's likely why the siege of Portland is ending...too much of something becomes a drag, sayeth Alinsky.

Ask the swing voters what they think about the democrats intentional and ongoing destruction of our economy, and what that destruction has cost them so far. Then ask them if they think democrats need to be rewarded with winning this election considering everything there are doing now and have done so far.

Same as poster #2...
but I cringe when he tweets, President Trump is his own worst enemy. I can't understand why those close to him just don't tell him to KNOCK IT OFF.

A 2-1 margin is a statistical landslide, # 1, so we can't be too discouraged.

Historically (I am a Historian), this country divides into thirds politically (even in our Revolution, 33% rebels, 33% loyalists, 33% just wanted to be left alone to farm etc.). So 22 out of 33 is HUGE - the 33% hard core dims are going to vote for ABT (Anyone but Trump). That means DJT is cleaning up with "independents". Keep up the fire - maybe a poor choice of words - keep rioting, keep burning, keep marching, because all you idiot rioters (not protesters) are doing is marching the independents and Trump supporters to the polling booths in Nov (which is why the dims are so hot on mail ballots).

So the cute little Ninja boys in Portland, Seattle and so forth are about to get snuffed because their Dem mayors and Govs have got their feet in the fire. Watch for Lori Lightweight to start kicking butts. LOL
Toss them all. MAGA.

Trump should back off the tweets, let the democratic mayors/governors let their cities 'run wild' and then weeks before the election, come out strong as the 'law and order' candidate.

I can handle another Dem meltdown but dear Lord not if they remain/regain control of any part of the Congress. Give Trump the tools to finish the job.

What is Biden known for in his 50 years in politics? Um, he thought Obama was “clean and articulate” expecting, no doubt, being black and all, Barack would be dirty and inarticulate (one can only assume...). Also, he appears to be a serial hair sniffer of (largely) underage females. And certainly his aggressive groping of a staffer had more legs on it (pardon the pun) than anything they tried to throw at Kavanaugh... contemporaneous witnesses to her story in fact. Other than that? Uh, well he is concerned about the “crimate clisis” as he so deftly termed it recently. Other than that...

Mr. President: Double down on the America-First message. Most of us agree that we've taken it on the chin for far too long. We want to hear more about how we re-build our economy, our strength, and retain our role as the greatest country in the world. While the dems keep trash-talking everything about America & predicting a gloom-and-doom future, give us more of that can-do, positive outlook.
I don't believe that the demonrats will end up running ol' Joe to the end. If something doesn't change quickly they know they'll take a bath, and I think they're going to look for some type of escape from Joemageddon.

#11, to finish the job means we have to eradicate the commies/socialists from our society. If you don't do that, they'll just be back next election cycle, and attempting to brainwash/indoctrinate those in school or watching most any type of media or interacting with the so-called 'just us' system.
Winning the election is like taking aspirin to reduce the fever. We need societal surgery to excise the infection elements causing the fever.

Biden should dispel the rumors surrounding his mental capacity by immediately coming out in public and proclaiming that despite what everyone thinks, he's NOT a senile old coot!!!

I can tell you what Biden accomplished in his many decades in politics; he's gotten filthy rich. What has he done for the country; nothing good.

Trump is pro-America. Every president should be pro-America and nothing else. Our federal govt should not be cavorting behind our back and selling us out to foreign interests while collecting a fat paycheck and campaign contributions. As for those posters who 'cringe' at Trump's tweeting, that is a tired old arguments. How else is the leader of the free world to get his message out directly to the American people without being filtered and twisted by the Swamp Media creatures? Trump talks like the average American talks and I like it!! Nobody likes some stuffed shirted suit telling us we need to use less energy, get rid of our guns and religion and pay higher taxes for the 'common good'. Nobody is perfect and Trump isn't either, but he is doing the bidding for American citizens and protecting our nation. For that, he gets my vote - again!!

Why care if he enjoys tweeting? Gives the dem pols something to stew about, so it can't be all bad. LOL! Conservatives know what he is actually accomplishing for America and we are thankful for his leadership. The dem's media never reports his accomplishments because this President puts America first! Let the guy tweet. ...We like that he has a sense of humor and enjoy his informative messages directly to the people and avoiding the dems ever-spinning & sifting press!

"many swing voters reside in a national politics desert" "Covid-19 was not Trump’s fault, and he’s doing the best he can to contain it." "They conflate the Black Lives Matter protesters with the rioters attacking federal buildings and retail shops. They don’t want historic monuments torn down. And they dismiss defunding the police as ridiculous."
Essentially, ALL the dem/Left/media messaging and narratives are falling on the deaf ears of those who have already made up their minds that Trump is a far better answer than Basement Joe and the dems (a really pathetic music group). Further, all the dems craziness and hysteria only convinces these voters that they are correct. The dems are bringing NOTHING to the table to win middle America. Further, for the most part, these voters aren't even listening to the panicked screams of the national networks. Trump's trolling of the media and their crazed reactions are not even being seen. But it is red meat for Trump's base.
These voters WANT what Trump has promised and started to deliver before getting derailed by COVID; America First, economic success, immigration control, and a real fighter for all these things. They "hate the tweets" but understand that, given the insanity of the Left, they may be a necessary evil.
I see the tweets as a very effective way to break the back of the media monopoly and it drives them insane, driving them further down the credibility hole. Trump made the media irrelevant and they responded by getting even worse. Beyond that, Trump gets his message out because the media frantically says what Trump tweeted and his supporters hear it and agree with Trump. The media is too lost in TDS to realize they are campaigning for him for free. A few pleaded with the rest to STOP doing that but the rest are too ego driven and maddened by hatred to back away. Trump KNOWS these people. He knew what the outcome would be. He is leading them around on a leash.

#5, because it is his only clear channel out to the people.
How can you be so blind as to not see that?
