Didn't he then assume his girlfriend's identity? Einhorn was the girlfriend's name originally and then he started pretending to be her. His real name was Finkel, I believe. edit: Yeah, looked it up.

Hersh Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 It's painful listening to these morons on the morning shows trying to explain away the disaster that is Donald Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadySkinsFan Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I can't remember the last time I watched a morning show. I used to watch John McLaughlin. Now, it's just people allowing other people spout off nonsense without challenging them. It's how we have Trump, no one called him on his lies and nonsense.

hail2skins Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 New WaPo poll about Trump's performance indicates that, if the election were held today, 43 percent of the respondents would vote for Trump and 40 percent for Hillary. This really speaks to how terrible of a campaign she ran and how bad of a candidate she was. I really want to read the new book "Shattered" about the campaign, which illustrates how much her field officers and even her husband were ignored by campaign HQ.

DogofWar1 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I don't really buy that poll, too many X factors not accounted for. Results change cognition. People who voted for Clinton because she was a good choice but not that person's first choice likely have a bit of "told you so"-ism going on. "I knew she was a bad candidate" says the Bernie bro, "I shoulda never voted for her." But let's pretend the Supreme Court invalidated the election tomorrow and set another election for November, with all the same candidates as 2016. I'll bet the vast majority of that 15% votes for Hillary again because then their vote, their answer, would be real. There's no price paid for Hillary voters to say they'd vote for someone else now as the election is done, but if the election were somehow undone then there would be an actual price paid, and that would absolutely impact their vote. Meanwhile, the Trump voters still have skin in the game, their buyer's remorse will creep in over time but at less than 100 days in they're holding out hope. But there is a price to be "paid" for abandoning support of Trump. Trump is still gonna run in 2020, presumably. Finally, the single biggest factor in Hillary's loss has basically been determined to be the Comey letter regarding the Wiener emails. She lost 3% of her advantage in the immediate aftermath of that, and lost a number of states needed to win by less than 1%. Not that Hillary's campaign was perfect or even great/good, but if not for the Comey letter, there is like a 95% chance she is President, and all the talk of her bad campaign dissipates.

Looks like all the poll respondents gave Hillary a 4 point edge on an election do over, while those who were polled and actually voted in the election gave Trump a 3 point edge. http://hotair.com/archives/2017/04/23/poll-trump-beat-clinton-rematch-among-2016-voters/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
