"things don't always turn out the way you think."
Agreed, and she's not creaming him in the polls in the swing states, not anymore. This won't help.
"there are more people hurting than the media will let you know or the dems will acknowledge "
Agreed 100%. But every TV station except one, will blame that entirely on the GOP. That's a challenging, but not insurmountable, handicap to overcome. And I don't think Trump is the guy to 'prosecute' the Dems for actually being overwhelmingly responsible. It's not a very difficult case to make that liberalism, at least their economic ideas, are insane. But it might be too much to ask of Donald, who instead will fly off the handle and say stupid things that Hilary will fairly use against him. Anyone else could annihilate her in a debate with nothing but facts. We chose to nominate the one guy who may not have the temperament to pull that off, so we deserve the outcome.
"they can't avoid reality "
That's almost ALL THEY DO, and they do it extremely well. For example, the reality is, people who are pro-life, come to that conclusion because we have empathy for the baby. But I have never heard a liberal give us credit for that. All they do, is avoid reality and say that we are anti-women and anti-choice. It bears no resemblance to reality. But that's what they do, and it works. They have to avoid reality, because if you look at their platform through a lens of honesty and reality, it looks laughably stupid. I don't think it's possible to be thoughtful or honest and be liberal, precisely because liberalism is so at odds with reality.
"70% still believe the country is on the wrong track"
But unlike the crash of 2008, today, people don't blame our lousy landscape of the party of the sitting president. Obama's approval ratings aren't that bad. Why Bush got blamed for the crash in 2008 but Obama gets a pass for our current woes, is beyond me.
