Absolutely. Keep him away from his twitter account. This election has always been his to win or lose and the MSM will pounce on anything in an effort to discredit him..

Are you really that clueless? So immersed in your Leftist Bubble that you had no idea what happened today?

Here's a Hint -- The Mayor of Flint said this morning that Mr Trump would NOT be allowed anywhere near the Flint Water Treatment area, despite all the arrangements for him to be there.

And yet .... There he was, AND he assembled a Press Conference in Flint after his visit to the Water Treatment Plant that he was "suddenly" barred from entering. You appear to think that was loss, silly goose.

This isn't exactly Rocket Science. It's pretty easy to figure out why he was "suddenly" banned, Mr Trump gave us all the clues during his short talk to figure out how he "Negotiated" his way into the Banned area. He even handled the Rudeness extremely well -- very, very smooth & well done.

He is a Master and he does it on the Fly. Good Day for Mr Trump.

I'd go one step further..Republican Congress has actually sidelined Flint's problems in Flint~~ and Yes Michigan Gov. is a REP. Governor who's echelon of STAFF has been indicted for their part in covering up and causing life long direct affects to kids...Yep!! GOP really cares about those kids ( and afterthought ..parents) and lied..hid lab results..denied whomever complained..because ..BLAH BLAH!!

IF Donny Boy thinks he can fix it any faster than the WHOLE HOST of those trying..He's delusional..DUE to Cost cutting decision and denials of direct affects of it..have actually caused LIFE LONG Disabilities..and maybe some deaths..BUT other than ( so far) some being charged ( hopefully more to come)..THEY will never have to suffer the affects of the toxin's they introduced to innocent citizen's..

It's been 3 years+..and there's no quick turnaround..Funding by GOP Congress has shelved it..NOTHING coming from GOP Folk...

I say..Hey..Vote for the Callus GOP folks { :roll eyes: }, who care nothing about emergency..or urgent needs from American Citizens Trumpets!! ..We even got a glimpse of that back in Hurricane Sandy..( Christie called GOP Congress on that then!! ).. GOP governing/ruling has been bent on defund/block or kick CAN down the road mentality ( except for Shutdown that costs millions+++ ) !! I won't even go into the multi-millions wasted on Banghazi hearing ( about 8 of them) ..defunding Planned parenthood ( about 60 times)..defuning ACA about 100 times) always attached to bills that could help American Citizens..

Even Cruz admitted to "Poison Pill" W/ addition to bill IN ORDER SOME GOOD bipartisan bill would FAIL!! I have to ask?..Why do 6 digit income annually folks with perks/benefits, have a the NERVE to deny American Citizen's what they should be doing..Governing..NOT Blocking..or taking $$ from lobbyists ( PAY FOR PLAY) to encourage BAD laws. States having been passing a record of overturned laws by States!! Again Taxpayers pay for that litigation..unconstitutional?? Not towards things that actually go to infrastuctures..etc..

What I described above..goes on in all STATES and yes even in Local level politics... When exposed..often it's denied ..But often it does get exposed! Meanwhile..Taxpayers always pay dearly for pad pockets..vote for someone who really is bought and paid for by $$$$$ types..Laws get written by same types ( ALEC as example)..

Back to Flint tho..~~ Politicians always want to CUT services and costs of them..deny Fed. funding for Medicare..short circuit more expensive mode of operations ( Water works) for that "OTHER" district..Cause it will save a few hundred thousand $$...Yikes..Due to such decision..then compounded by 2 years with denials and LIES..Costs will be in multi-Billions!!

Sure throw those lower level ones who were demanded to follow directives..meanwhile GOVERNOR..Deniability ( in his STUPID BRAIN) was thought to give him an exit ramp!! Meanwhile..Toxic affects affect multi millions ( kids) and guess who PAYS!! Taxpayers from both STATE and FEDERAL!!

IF anyone believes that Trump can actually FIX this..you have to be delusional..BECAUSE a GOP CONGRESS for past 6 years has does NOTHING..and IF you think Trumpf can make them "Sieg Heil!" to Donald is laughable.

Trump is delusional if he thinks HE can make law..change laws or force laws..He's stupid..he's not a youngster who has no experience..He
s a 70 year old man who spent $$ on "Pay for Play" with Politicians his whole adult life..Just maybe investigating reports will out that. Pot calling Kettle black on Pay to Play accusations will come back to haunt him ten fold!!

Sorry for Rant..BUT Politicians/STATE or Federal officials, worker about 1/4 hours most full-time laypersons do..have benefits+++ and have the nerve to defund.block help or emergency funding ( took almost 13 years to get funding for 9/11 first responders funding to deal with their issues from exposures to toxic exposures) ..Sorry..From afar..GOP Lawmakers have not impressed me over the past decade at all!!

Well the thing is Trump is reaching out. That is courage to go into a less than friendly environment to reach out.


Plus at least Trump does not have a fake Southern Speak!


Trump will hand Ms., Clinton just fine. that is if she does not send in a sub.

Agreed. Ms. Clinton has shown herself to have all the time in the world for the rich and wealthy

Trump is not a dyed in the wool Repub, he's running w/ that party because he's more fiscally conservative than a progressive

He was there in Louisiana, he sent a team of people to help in Florida, and now in Flint he's trying to make inroads.

That's what a leader has to do. You have to start somewhere. I think he can do the job

That statement says you think minorities are just minorities. Guess what? Minorities are Americans. Why shouldn't Americans care about one another.? Fact is they are Americans first, they are not under the banner of minorities first. You might think of people as minorities first. I see them as all Americans with equal rights.

Hillary visited Flint during her Primary battle against Bernie. Great Photo Ops & Speech opportunities

She FiLMED Campaign Ads in the Church and gave a rousing stump speech ... Go Hillary
I've never been a fan of hypocrisy and Double Standards ...... But it's an everyday thing to Leftists.

It is what it is ...... 2 years the Federal EPA and the city Government ignored the Water Crisis in Flint.
How many years have the Democrats stood by and watched Flint & Detroit sink to this level of poverty - at what point will these citizens decide "ENOUGH!" Only a fool fights in a burning house.

The Flint Pastor I felt intervened when it was unwarranted to do so.

Her defining moment.

Did they discuss what was to talked about and not prior to the speech?

If Trump was advised to leave out certain topics and he touched on them , then she had every right to step in

Now, if there was no agreement in place, then she overstepped the mark just a tad in upstaging the presidential nominee.

Stealing the limelight , as she may find out later, may not have been the best course of action today.
One should already be "evolved" before one seeks the highest office in the land.
