.
o when the Georgia primary rolled around this month, Mr. Finkelstein, along with many others in his town, pulled the lever for Donald J. Trump, who made him feel that someone had finally started listening. “He gets it,” Mr. Finkelstein said in a recent interview. “We’ve sold ourselves out.”
.
Committee filed into a Capitol Hill conference room to discuss trade. The Obama administration, negotiating a trade pact with Pacific Rim nations, was seeking congressional approval to fast-track the deal. Opposition was intense not only among labor unions, but among many Republican voters, while the party’s leadership, atypically, was supporting Mr. Obama’s effort.

For help, the lawmakers turned to Frank Luntz, the Republican messaging guru. For two decades, Mr. Luntz had instructed Republicans on how to talk about thorny issues. Do not say “estate tax.” Say “death tax.” Do not privatize Social Security. “Personalize” it.

Few issues were now as dangerous to them as trade, Mr. Luntz told the lawmakers, especially a trade pact sought by a president their voters hated. Many Americans did not believe that the economic benefits of trade deals trickled down to their neighborhoods. They did not care if free trade provided them with cheaper socks and cellphones. Most believed free trade benefited other countries, not their own.
.
“I told them to stop calling it free trade, and start calling it American trade,” Mr. Luntz said in an interview. “American businesses, American services — American, American, American!”

You are right MG, and there are some very important points to consider during the 2016 Presidential Campaign:

-Obama is against Trump
-The 'mainstream' media is against Trump
-The establishment Democrats (Marxists) are against Trump
-The establishment Republicans (RINOs) are against Trump
-The Pope is against Trump
-The UN is against Trump
-The EU is against Trump
-China is against Trump
-Mexico is against Trump
-George Soros is against Trump
-Move-On.org is against Trump
-Black Lives Matter is against Trump
-The Koch brothers are against Trump
-Hateful, racist & violent 'Liberals' (the modern Marxist-Left) are against Trump


...If the above-listed wasn't enough to make a reasonable person support Trump, then the following 'bonus points' could be considered:

-Miley Cyrus says she will leave the country
-Cher says she will leave the country (hopefully taking her loud-mouth abomination tranny offspring with her)
-Whoppi Goldberg says she will leave the country
-Rosie O'Donnell says she will leave the country
-Al Sharpton says he will leave the country
-Governor Jerry 'Moonbeam' Brown says that California will build a wall separating itself from the rest of the country

Now, before we start cheering at the thought of such people leaving the country for good, you must remember that the Left never keep their word. Does anyone here remember during the 2000 Presidential Campaign, how Alec Baldwin and Barbara Streisand both promised to leave the country if G.W. Bush was elected? Well, unfortunately they are both are still here

As a matter of fact, any time you hear someone from the Left say "trust me", your hand should instinctively go to your holster

And as for Governor 'Moonbeam' Brown's promise to build a wall separating California from the rest of the country; it is an idea that I too have been championing for over 30-years. That would be a wonderful way to limit the influx of 'fruits, nuts & flakes' into the normal parts of the nation.

Actually years ago I thought/recommended that we build a HUGE chainsaw and cut California free - "just let it go" & drift out into the Pacific somewhere.

All my life I have heard that the San Andreas fault was going to crack open and California was going to slip into the Pacific. I have just about given up hope.

Enjoyed it - not to mention a couple of the other clips shown were pretty good too.
