WASHINGTON (AP) — The prognosis for President Donald Trump and his party was grim.
In a post-Labor Day briefing at the White House, a top Republican pollster told senior staff that the determining factor in the election wouldn't be the improving economy or the steady increase in job creation. It would be how voters feel about Trump. And the majority of the electorate, including a sizable percentage of Republican-leaning voters, doesn't feel good about the president, according to a presentation from pollster Neil Newhouse that spanned dozens of pages.
Newhouse's briefing came amid a darkening mood among Republican officials as the November election nears. Party leaders were already worried that a surge in enthusiasm among Democrats and disdain for Trump by moderate Republicans would put the House out of reach. But some Republicans now fear their Senate majority is also in peril — a scenario that was unthinkable a few months ago given the favorable Senate map for the GOP.
"For Republican candidates to win in swing states, they need all of the voters who support President Trump, plus a chunk of those who do not," said Whit Ayres, a GOP pollster. "That is threading a very narrow strategic needle."----MORE----

Republicans needn't worry. Their base will turn out. I just hope there isn't another massacre by a gunman with an automatic weapon before election day. Another fake Sandy Hook wouldn't be helpful.

Let us not forget that the Las Vegas massacre was caused by a Trump hater who believed everyone attending a country/western concert had to be Trump supporters. No fake Sandy Hook here!

I predict the democrats will again have their asses handed to them. This will prove even sleepy people wake up some times. But don't despair. There is still no cure for stupid.

I don't have the why but I do know one man with a Valcan Crew Master could not down over 600 people with 10 minutes of random fire. But I agree with the obama Sandy Hook false flag. Even if there were no evidence I would still believe it to be an obama false flag just by the supposed victims parents interviews. They sound like they won the lottery not lost a child. With all the donations they got from the bleeding heart crowd at $650,000 a piece I guess it would be like hitting the lottery and that's not counting the government groups paid with our millions from obama.
