Here's the thing: As long as trump focuses on Obama, he's not staying on the message

he SHOULD be on, which is for his trumpanzies to get out and register to vote for him.

Keep those morons distracted with flying batshit moonbeams and birth certificates, keep them enraged and posting stupid memes about Secretary Clinton, and they'll forget to vote.

Democrats still outnumber the Republicans in the USA. Keep shoving pretty sparkly bumper stickers, posters and memes in their stupid faces and they'll forget the most important aspect of the whole game until it's too late.

Those republican morons are too stupid to figure out how to register to vote. That's not a bad thing.

Obligatory;

'no offense to any republicans out there'

*cough*

They were planning on capitalizing on voter fatigue from 8 years of Obama the way Democrats did in 2008.

Now that President Obama's approval rating is 54% in Gallup and 58% in the ABC poll, that strategy doesn't work so well anymore. I think that's why they are starting to push this "Hillary secretly hates Obama and calls him 'that man'" meme. That's what blaming Hillary for the birther controversy is about.

Fortunately, Trump is Trump and can't seem to stay on message. He just enjoys bashing the president even though it doesn't help him.
