Where is the Trump office in Ohio, pray tell?

In Delaware? In Westerville? In Columbus? In Hilliard? In New Albany? German Village?

Where's the Trump office?
Here's the facebook page for the guy who took the video: https://www.facebook.com/eric.spracklen

Note the January 19 post. It appears his friends don't even support Trump. LOL!

Sounds very tired to me and at wits end for what is happening to the campaign.

We can allow Ringo1 some rest and maybe see she/heback tomorrow or whenever they feel better.
Ringo1 like a lot of HC supporters simply can`t fathom the disastrous turn of events for their candidate and are indeed in shock.

You know, you only have to see Hillary once to know what she's all about. She doesn't change her message every other second like Trump does. You never know what Trump will say but Hillary is very dependable.

What are Trump's policies today? Are they the same as yesterday or this morning or are they entirely different? Who knows? Who cares?

Indeed.

Most of these polls are based on calling a couple of 1000 people then running them through private models to project how the rest of the population will vote. Unfortunately for the pollsters, this election is like none seen in the past generation.

And remember, their objective isn't to make accurate predictions. Their objective is to make money.

Every other second? She hasn't had a press conference in 11 months.

First - my son is a project manager - so I know the schedule Metroword has. When a project is in full swing - my son doesn't get down time until it's completed - so no he wouldn't have time to volunteer.

Second - I worked campaigns for years and obviously some of you never watched the video. There was suppose to be a door knocking - we called it canvassing - and everyone was suppose to meet at headquarters at 1 o'clock for their street designations and info packets. Now you'll have a few people come a bit early and leave to their assigned route - but the majority come around the time it starts and actually congregates for awhile in the building - chatting and waiting to get their assignments. There was only 1 guy handling handing out the assignments - we had 2-3 people doing it as many wanted their home areas, others needed something nearby to walk to and others had cars and didn't care where they were assigned - it takes awhile to get people out the door.

There isn't even a Hillary Clinton campaign headquarters in my area which is a big metropolitan city. I get calls and emails all the time from the Trump campaign - but none from Hillary and I'm a Democrat.

And this means what? Of course the guy is a Trump supporter - it doesn't take a genius to figure that out. So what if his friends don't support Trump - I myself have a couple (2) that support Hillary. Not everyone is going to agree - but then again - we don't go to war over it and treat each other so shamefully like some on this board.

One small office in Ohio (Westerville) knocked on 250 doors this week-end. One small office in one small area.


The Delaware office is larger with more volunteers. The Columbus office even larger.


IF you choose to believe there is no ground game in Ohio, fine by me. Play your silly video all the live long day because a guy arrived early.


I have to continually remind myself that I'm dealing with folks who think Trump tells the truth and that Obama is a Muslim born in Kenya.


So normal conversation is really out of the question.

1. It will be interesting to see/hear reports from the event to see how many people were actually there.

2. Why is she only doing small events?

(I RSVP'd for this particular event last week to get tickets - though I received a confirmation at the time, I have not received any additional email information. And now HRC's website says the event is full. I have to wonder if they are intentionally keeping access at these events small.)
Quoting myself because ....

The time on the event just changed overnight from 4pm to noon.

I still don't have an email from HRC's campaign even though I have a confirmation email from the campaign when I signed up - though at that time it says location and time TBD.

Just frickin' weird.
