The Electoral College Prediction That Will Leave the Left ‘Terribly Shocked’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

We’re either right or wrong. There is no in-between here concerning the polls. These liberal outlets are oversampling Democrats, ignoring Trump Democrats, not accounting for fewer young voters turning out, and including way too many college-educated voters to craft a narrative that this country holds a D+15 electorate. It’s just not true. Trump Democrats are being ignored. Rural Republicans are being bypassed. The suburban cohort of the GOP—sure. They’re the squishiest and most vocally anti-Trump of the group. At Trump’s rallies, around 25 percent of the attendees didn’t vote in 2016. Some firms haven’t even moved off from registered voter samples. It’s a trainwreck. Biden is supposedly ahead by double-digits, which his camp says is not true. They’re admitting the polls are inflated, which could also be a ploy to keep their base anxious and ready to vote. They don’t want complacency to settle in like it did in 2016. Yet, the rule hasn’t changed: never underestimate anything when Trump is on the ballot and at the top of the ticket.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is also feeling good about President Trump’s chances for re-election. Appearing on Fox News’ Sean Hannity’s show, the former speaker said that the Electoral College result will shock the Left. He has Trump clinching another Electoral College landslide, nabbing 326 electoral votes (via RealClearPolitics):

Newt Gingrich said the left is going to be shocked by a Trump victory and said an electoral map showing the incumbent president with 326 electoral votes seems right to him in an interview Wednesday night with FNC’s Sean Hannity.

“He has a better likelihood than he did at this stage in 2016 when he was clearly behind and closing rapidly,” Gingrich said. “The people I trust the most, the pollsters that have been the most accurate over the last 5 or 6 years who seem to understand the dynamics of the age of Trump.”

“I saw today the first electoral college map that made sense to me and it showed Trump at 326 electoral votes plus,” Gingrich said. “I think that is probably about right. I think the left is going to be terribly shocked.”

Rapper Lil Wayne Praises Trump’s Platinum Plan for Black Americans

/0 Comments/in , /by

In another sign of growing support for President Trump from the influential rap community, the acclaimed hip-hop artist Lil Wayne said he met with the president on Thursday, saying that they discussed criminal justice reform and the president’s “Platinum Plan” to invest in black communities and businesses.

Lil Wayne described the meeting as “great” and said that President Trump “listened to what we had to say today.”

The apparent endorsement from Lil Wayne represents a major boon for President Trump, whose support among black Americans has reached 31 percent according to a daily Rasmussen Reports poll. The president garnered just 8 percent of the black vote in 2016.

Lil Wayne — whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. — ranks among the most acclaimed rappers of all time. The Grammy-winning artist has sold more than 120 million records worldwide, making him one of the top-selling artists ever. His Twitter feed is followed by more than 34 million individuals.

Lil Wayne is the latest major rap figure to signal his support for President Trump. Last week, 50 Cent wrote “Vote for Trump” in an Instagram post in which he lashed out at Joe Biden’s planned tax hikes. (Read more from “Rapper Lil Wayne Praises Trump’s Platinum Plan for Black Americans” HERE)

Ex-Homeland Security Official Outs Himself as ‘Anonymous’ Anti-Trump Author; Trump Says Taylor ‘Should Be Prosecuted’; Supporters Shout ‘Drain the Swamp’ as Trump Mocks ‘Anonymous’ Nobody, New York Times

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By NPR. Miles Taylor, the former chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security, has revealed himself to be “Anonymous,” the author of a New York Times op-ed and book critical of the Trump presidency.

“To be clear, writing those works was not about eminence (they were published without attribution), not about money (I declined a hefty monetary advance and pledged to donate the bulk of the proceeds), and not about crafting a score-settling ‘tell all’ (my focus was on the President himself and his character, not denigrating former colleagues),” Taylor wrote in a Medium post.

“Nevertheless, I made clear I wasn’t afraid to criticize the President under my name.”

Taylor, in media interviews as recently as August, denied being “Anonymous.” (Read more from “Ex-Homeland Security Official Outs Himself as ‘Anonymous’ Anti-Trump Author” HERE)

Trump Says Miles Taylor ‘Should Be Prosecuted’ After Reveal as ‘Anonymous’ Administration Critic

By Fox News. President Trump called Wednesday night for former Department of Homeland Security chief of staff Miles Taylor to face prosecution after he revealed himself as “Anonymous,” the former senior administration official who authored a New York Times op-ed criticizing the presidency in 2018.

Trump took aim at Taylor during a campaign rally in Goodyear, Ariz., referring to him as a “low-level staffer, a sleazebag, who’s never worked in the White House.” Taylor revealed his identity as “Anonymous” in a blog post on Wednesday afternoon.

“The whole thing was just one more giant hoax from the Washington swamp and a corrupt special interest group,” Trump said at the rally. “I’ll tell you what – this guy, in my opinion, should be prosecuted. He should be prosecuted. The left wing media and the swamp are doing everything in their power to try to stop us.”

Supporters Shout ‘Drain the Swamp’ as Donald Trump Mocks ‘Anonymous’ Nobody, New York Times

By Breitbart. President Donald Trump ridiculed The New York Times after the “Anonymous” administration “insider” Miles Tayor revealed his identity on Wednesday. . .

“You know where he works now? He works at CNN, can you believe it?” Trump chuckled.

The president joked that after the New York Times published the op-ed, he was concerned that the “anonymous” official could have been a high-level source like his top advisers Hope Hicks or even his son-in-law Jared Kushner or even a Senator like Mike Lee (R-UT) or Rand Paul (R-KY). . .

Trump also mocked Taylor for taking a job with Google after he left the administration.

“Isn’t that nice?” he asked sarcastically, recalling that the Justice Department was suing Google for antitrust behavior. (Read more from “Supporters Shout ‘Drain the Swamp’ as Donald Trump Mocks ‘Anonymous’ Nobody, New York Times” HERE)

WATCH: F-16s Intercept Plane Flying Too Close To Trump Rally

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The U.S. Air Force intercepted an unknown aircraft flying too close to President Trump’s campaign rally in Arizona Wednesday.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) said it dispatched F-16s, a type of fighter aircraft, and launched signal flares before establishing radio contact and escorting the plane out of restricted airspace “without further incident.”

NORAD said the general aviation aircraft was not in communication with Air Traffic Controls and entered the Temporary Flight Restriction area surrounding Bullhead City, AZ without proper clearance around 2 p.m. The aircraft was not initially responsive to intercept procedures, they added.

Trump, who addressed a crowd of supporters in the battleground state just six days before the election, saw the flares and pointed at the sky.

“Oh, look at that. Look, look, look,” Trump said, pointing at the sky. “Look at that. They gave the president a little display.” The crowd then chanted “USA, USA, USA!” (Read more from “WATCH: F-16s Intercept Plane Flying Too Close To Trump Rally” HERE)

‘Release the Zoom Meeting’: Ice Cube Calls Biden Campaign Out for Lying About Conversation

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .In a radio interview Monday, Rep. Cedric Richmond, who serves as a co-chair of Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, accused [Ice] Cube of having lied about his interactions with the campaign.

After the rapper was outed earlier this month for speaking with President Donald Trump’s campaign about his Contract with Black America, he responded to backlash from the far-left by saying only one campaign had shown any interest in his plan. . .

But speaking on SirusXM’s “Joe Madison Show” this Monday, Richmond disputed this narrative, essentially claimed the rapper is a liar and also dissed the rapper’s plan.

“I like the fact that Ice Cube is getting engaged in policy. I think that is a good thing. However, once you embark on getting into it, one, you have to be truthful, but two, you have an obligation, I think, to see it through and to be thorough with it,” he said. . .

In a tweet posted a day latter, Cube clapped back at Richmond’s accusation by calling bullschiff and challenging the Democrat to release audio footage of their discussion.

USC Pollster: Our Experimental but Accurate Model Shows Trump Winning the Electoral College Again

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[T]he previous six Keystone State polls gave Biden an average lead of 5.5 points (though another right-leaning pollster also shows Trump surging ahead). Trafalgar’s chief pollster told me that part of their “secret sauce” is asking questions that reduce the impact of “social desirability bias” in respondents’ answers. The idea is that given the loud opposition to Trump across much of mass media and other taste-making institutions, some people may not want to admit to a stranger over the phone that they plan on voting for him. Part of the way Trafalgar tries to home in on someone’s true intentions is to ask them more indirect questions that may reveal their actual preferences. As it turns out, USC’s pollster has been doing something similar for a number of years, and here’s what they’ve found:

From our previous research on social judgments, we learned that people seem to know their immediate social circles quite well. Their answers about the distribution of income, health status — even the relationship satisfaction of their friends, family and acquaintances — were often in the right ballpark. And when we averaged the data from their responses across a large national sample, it provided a surprisingly accurate picture of the overall population…in all five of the elections in which we tested this question, the social circle question predicted election outcomes better than traditional questions about voters’ own intentions. These five elections were the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, the 2017 French Presidential election, the 2017 Dutch Parliamentary election, the 2018 Swedish Parliamentary election, and the 2018 U.S. election for House of Representatives. In both the U.S. elections, the social-circle question predicted national and state level results better than the “own intention” question in the same polls. In fact, data from the social-circle question in 2016 accurately predicted which candidate won each state, so it predicted Trump’s electoral college victory…

Five for five thus far. So what is their data showing this year? Their traditional polling model gives Biden a double-digit lead in the national horserace, pointing to an easy win and a brutal GOP night. But their “social circle” data, which “predicted outcomes better than traditional questions” is telling a different story:

When we calculate how many electoral votes each candidate could get based on state level averages of the own-intention and social-circle questions, it’s looking like an Electoral College loss for Biden. We should note that our poll was not designed for state-level predictions, and in some states we have very few participants. Even so, in 2016 it predicted that Trump would win the electoral vote.

Trump Denounces White Supremacy ’38 Times’ in New Campaign Video (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Trump campaign on Tuesday released a video compiling more than three dozen times President Trump has denounced White supremacy, as his Democratic rival Joe Biden and his running mate Sen. Kamala Harris of California continue to claim this week on the campaign trail that he has failed to do so.

The Trump campaign rolled out a nearly 5-minute-long video of the president, featuring video clips from as recently as this month, to his 2016 presidential campaign, and dating all the way back to an interview Trump gave to Matt Lauer in the early 2000s, where he denounced White supremacy and “disavowed” White supremacist groups.

The video comes after Biden and Harris have criticized Trump, casting him as a racist and claiming he has not denounced White supremacy, and also comes as part of the Trump campaign’s final pitch to win over Black voters ahead of Election Day.

“President Trump wants to prosecute the KKK as a terrorist organization and has condemned White supremacy at least 38 times. 38 times!” a senior Trump campaign official told Fox News.

“The Biden campaign continues to sow division and inflame racial tension by spreading this false narrative,” the Trump campaign official added. “Enough is enough.” (Read more from “Trump Denounces White Supremacy ’38 Times’ in New Campaign Video (VIDEO)” HERE)

‘Something Wrong With Her’: Trump Questions Kamala Harris’ Laughter on ‘60 Minutes’ (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

President Trump on Monday said Sen. Kamala Harris’ frequent bursts of laughter at serious questions suggests “there’s something wrong” with the Democratic vice presidential candidate.

Trump mocked Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview, broadcast Sunday, during a campaign rally in Allentown, Pa.

“Did you see [Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s] performance on that show? The only thing almost as bad was Kamala, with the laugh. ‘Haha, that’s so funny. Hahaha.’ She kept laughing. I said, ‘Is there something wrong with her, too?’” Trump quipped.

“She will not be the first woman president, you can’t let that happen. I said, ‘Is there something wrong with her?’ She kept laughing at very, you know, serious questions.”

Med School Professor Calls for President Trump to Be Declared a ‘Public Health Threat’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Dr. Raymond Givens, a cardiologist and professor at the Columbia University Medical Center in New York City, would like to see President Donald Trump officially declared a “public health threat.”

In an op-ed in MedPage Today, Givens claimed that Trump is “one of the most serious threats to public health and human rights in modern American history” and that the medical community has a responsibility to declare him as such.

“We are ethically bound to identify threats to the health of patients and populations, to speak the truth even if it provokes the anger of powerful people. Refusal to do so is malpractice,” Givens argued. “The [American Medical Association] Declaration of Professional Responsibility asserts that physicians have a duty to ‘educate the public and polity about present and future threats to the health of humanity’ and to advocate for ‘political changes that ameliorate suffering and contribute to human well-being.'”

Consequently, he wrote, “the entire American medical establishment has a duty to name Donald Trump, specifically, as a public health threat and strongly recommend that the upcoming election end his presidency.” . . .

Furthermore, Givens blamed Trump for spreading the disease, noting that “amid rising caseloads across much of the country, he has held large rallies packed with barefaced attendees.” (Read more from “Med School Professor Calls for President Trump to Be Declared a ‘Public Health Threat'” HERE)

WATCH: Hundreds Gather for Trump 2020 Rolling Rally in Kansas

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hundreds of people drove through Topeka, Kansas, on Saturday to show their support for President Donald Trump’s reelection.

A video showed the hundreds of Trump supporters in their vehicles with their Trump 2020 flag signs, all gathered in a single file on the road from the Vinewood Venue, passing by the governor’s mansion and completing their journey at the statehouse in Topeka. . .

Jordan Rigi, the event’s organizer, said it was his aim to bring the silent majority together.

“I think there is a silent majority of people who are just afraid to stand up because of all of the issues going on in the world, you know being separated from people,” Rigi said. “I have even heard from people that their homes are getting vandalized because of a Trump sign so it’s the silent majority taking a stance together.” (Read more from “WATCH: Hundreds Gather for Trump 2020 Rolling Rally in Kansas” HERE)
