GOP strategist Josh Holmes told McClatchy the President Trump is an asset for the midterm elections and that Republicans are counting on his media dominance to turn out their voters in November and drown out opponents messaging.
Said Holmes: Everybody thinks that President Trump is some kind of drag on the Republican Party, [when] in this case, hes just the essential ingredient.He added: What the president is doing by continuing to discuss the investigation and the quote-unquote witch hunt, particularly on prime time Fox News, is doing more to mobilize base voters than any legislative issue weve seen.
More: You could be up with 10 million points of health care messaging from now until the election. None of that matters if President Trump doesnt utter the word health care. He controls the conversation in a way that we have not seen a president do.

(1,153 posts)Counting on Drumpf to drown out the Dems will be hard to do as he is the biggest incomprehensible FLIP FLOPPER there is. No consistency or credibility in this cretin means they are hanging on to a pipe dream. The Blue Tsunami is coming for all of them.
