Is Hillary’s bump from the debates or Aleppo ?

October 3, 2016

This stuck me as interesting …

Trump had a bad week … bombing the debate and chasing Miss Piggy around.

And, apparently, Hillary got a post-debate bump.

Note: The “apparently” … LA Times survey still has Trump up … and there has been a curious lack of so-called “scientific polls released since the debate.  Hmmm.

Let’s cut numbers a slightly different way ….

Over the past week or so, Clinto has gained about 2 points in the 4-way polls.

During that same period, Johnson & Stein have fallen from a combined 12% to under 10%.

That’s roughly 2 points, right?

Hmmm.

Also during that time, Johnson plead the 5th on Aleppo and had trouble naming a world leader – any world leader.

Could Hillary’s gain be more Aleppo than the debates?

Counterintuitive, but maybe the debates didn’t really change the landscape very much.

NY Times Bombshell: Trump had a tax loss carryforward … disqualifying?

October 3, 2016

 P.S. Hillary had one, too (but the NYT missed that one).

This would be laughable except it will probably gain more traction with the MSM than Miss Piggy.

Here’s the “smoking gun”:

The New York Times obtained records from 1995 showing that Donald J. Trump declared a $916 million loss.

The figure is so substantial that it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying federal income tax for 18 years.
