Negative ads bounce off Trump’s chest, by Don Surber. Sean Trende, one of the brains over at Real Clear Politics, wrote…
The point here is not that Trump is guaranteed to win. Clinton maintains a large advertising and organizational advantage over Trump. But she has already dumped $50 million in unanswered advertising on his head, with little movement in the polls.
Surber adds:
She is in trouble. He neutralized her biggest advantage in this race: money. Negative ads bounce off Trump’s chest. Any normal Republican candidate — Jeb, Rubio, Cruz — would be Dukakis Man Walking by now after such a barrage of ads.
Not Trump. What scandal can Clinton use to dissuade his voters from crawling over broken glass and going to the polls this fall? Divorce? He’s had two. Bankruptcy? Four. DUI? He doesn’t drink and besides, he has a chauffeur. He gave money to a crooked politician? Yes, and her name is Clinton.
There are two reasons for this invulnerability.
The first of course is leadership. Unlike Clinton, Trump is a leader. …
The second is message. Make America Great Again. Trump’s voters are fed up with the system. It’s rigged. She’s one of the biggest riggers. …
They threw the kitchen sink at [Trump]. He didn’t duck it, but caught it, stood on it, and shouted, “What else do you have?”
