Trump Is A Genius - Why He Isn't Talking About The Economy?.... [View all]

Because he's letting the MSM do the talking for him. How you ask? Well because every MSM cable news show leads with that question when they talk about this election.

They ask: Why isn't Trump talking about the economy? Then they go on touting the economy and the job numbers and the stock market. What they are doing is talking about the economy for him. They say - that if they were him - he'd talk about the economy.

What he does is 'sow the fear' and he lets the MSM do his economy talking for him

He's using the MSM to do his talking and even though he calls the press 'the enemy of the people' he realizes that they will come off more credible than he would by touting the economy.
