Ok, why when the OP in the original post said the trip to Mexico was a homerun and successful did you bring up a tweet with a taco? You didn't say, "No I disagree, I don't think it was successful, and here is why" you purposefully injected a controversial taco tweet to attack Trump because you could not easily refute the OP's assertion.
I said the trip won't sway voters and would have the same effect that his tweet about tacos had with Hispanic voters. I compared the two as equally insignificant in terms of the election. It's the OP's opinion.....mine is that it won't help him. Thought my post was pretty clear how I felt.
He's having better week and might move up in the polls.....this trip isnt gonna help. It was a stunt to change a flailing campaign.

It doesn't matter what was said. Regardless Mexico is going to say they aren't paying for the wall while at the same time Trump isn't going to say that they said no in an initial meeting. The point is Mexico doesn't have a choice in the matter. If a wall is built they will pay for it in one way or another.
Ok fair enough, I can't say for sure what was in your mind, but it sure appeared to be much more of a jab out of left field than a comparison but ok. Still, the odds at 5dimes changed around the time of the trip from -340 to -295. Polls have also changed overall in Trump's favor in one day, so your claim that this trip is insignificant doesn't seem to be supported.
That's what you Drumpf idiot supporters are now reduced to?
Wow, can you be that close minded. This was an initial fucking meeting. You don't talk in detail about the cost of a wall that will cost billions. Regardless on if the topic came up or not Trump will say no for political reasons because of course they are going to say no. The point is they both AGREED that their should be a wall or barrier and if Mexico doesn't want to pay for it they don't have a choice. They will have to pay for it.
I guess you didn't read the memo that shows exactly how they will be forced to pay for it..... Next
It might be a short term help because it was good politics and he's stealing the day from Clinton and he's overall having a better week.
but it was very political move because his campaign has been flailing but I'm sure the poll numbers will show a bump because of the week he is having. Clinton was invited to Mexico and Trump got the jump on her. It's something that will show in polls in short term but I don't think this its a game changing thing in any way. Nobody is saying " trump was in Mexico, I'm voting for him now". Because really, there are very few votes even up for grabs now. These candidates are so polarizing.....that most have minds made up. I think it's closer than most think.
Oh it was absolutely a political move, but you have to admit it's surprising to hear positive feedback from Mexican politicians after meeting with Trump, and it goes directly against the narratives being used against him.
I don't think any one thing is going to win him the election, it would have to be several things like this, unless of course Assange has a true nuclear bomb piece of info on hillary
I think people have tuned out the email thing......I think she increased her lead over Trump last time they were leaked. Unless she's outlining how to kill puppies and babies in those emails.....I don't think they hurt her in this election.
It was a good political move for trump but they had to do something bold....it was getting away from them. Somebody needs to take his Twitter away though.
Funny how the liberals have taken over this thread to bash Trump going to Mexico. I think it was a sharp move and I actually think it was quite productive. The US has a major problem with the number of illegals crossing the border between the crime, drugs, illegals drawing welfare, going to our emergency rooms, etc.; the Democrats want open borders and sanctuary cities. Our liberal posters bash and bash and bash and never offer any solutions. We need to close the border. End of story.
Are you working for the Trump campaign? You start three or four of these threads per week about "Trump is gaining" or "Trump is surging ahead."
Trump is going to get fucking massacred in November, and vitterd is going to bump 100 of these stupid threads to show what a clueless cheerleader you were all summer. I hope you stick around to take your medicine after Election Day.
