Republican Party launches pro-Trump campaign in Israel

The Journal’s editorial board, which generally favours Republicans, has been critical of Trump and has questioned his conservative credentials, but its warning on Monday was its strongest attack yet.

But Wisconsin professor and Trump supporter Van Mobley doesn’t buy into the hype. New polls show Clinton with a solid lead in swing states, as well as she and Trump’s home state of NY. And they’d like him to make the race be more about Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump. “Mrs. Clinton is the second most unpopular presidential nominee in history-after Mr. Trump”.

“If you dig into the weeds on that Marquette poll, you’ll actually see that he’s running ahead of where Romney was versus Obama in the northern part of the state, and in Green Bay he’s ahead”, he said.

“Mr. Trump is on the path to losing a winnable race”, the members of the conservative editorial board wrote, condemning Trump’s “lack of a field organization and digital turnout strategy” and his belief that the incendiary campaign rhetoric that enthralled GOP primary voters will work with the general electorate.

“Mr. Trump is right that most of the media want him to lose, but then that was also true of George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan”, the WSJ editorial board wrote.

Adding to Trump’s woes this week was a report in The New York Times that the name of his campaign manager, Paul Manafort, was on secret ledgers showing cash payments of more than $12 million from a Ukrainian political party with close ties to Russian Federation.

“As for Mr. Trump”, the paper said, “he needs to stop blaming everyone else and decide if he wants to behave like someone who wants to be President – or turn the nomination over to Mike Pence”, referring to the mogul’s running mate.

But Sytnik said that the presence of Manafort’s name “does not mean that he definitely received this money”.

Trump has increasingly begun to portray himself as a victim of the media.

Trump has spoken favorably in the past of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump lashed out at the media Sunday, saying he would be leading Clinton by 20 points if it weren’t for the “dishonest” media reporting. It was just after the Democratic National Convention (DNC) that Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight projected Trump to win the election after Clinton had been projected to win by a large margin before that.
