tRump rally pushed Bishop over the edge... [View all]

I'm sick of hearing this all day long! I highly doubt tRump's rally helped Bishop. That being said tRump seems to get endless press because of his rallies. It seems like it is amounting to millions in free press coverage. What if anything can our eventual nominee do to counter the rallies? It would be nice to match the free coverage instead of having to pay for it. Its a huge advantage. The media will do anything for ratings these days. It sickens me.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
