2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forum47% comment now rehashed.
Just saw a Trump surrogate harping on the 47% don't play taxes Romney point of view. Wow. This was so great of a strategy for Romney that Trump is busting it out.
Maybe he is throwing this thing.

(5,730 posts)1. Trump's constant barrage of incredibly horrible, meanspirited statements...
easily eclipse that of romney's 47% remark. This comes at a high cost for trump, as he stands to do much, much worse than romney in november.

arguably tanked Romney's chances.
It was Romney's mistake, so Trump sure didn't need to bring it back to remind voters and double down on it. He was beyond foolish if he actually did so!

(65,502 posts)3. Here is a comment he made on Hannity's show:
The problem we have right nowwe have a society that sits back and says we don't have to do anything. Eventually, the 50 percent cannot carryand it's unfair to thembut cannot carry the other 50 percent.
So he has apparently upped Romney's claim to 50%.

At some point, I think he's going to tie the Clintons to the Kennedy Assassination. A long-ago destroyed photo of a blonde at the depository, but he remembers it like it was yesterday.
