Haha Bolling said "I hope you aren't referring to us as carrying Trump's water" and then proceeds to carry Trump's water saying we should discount polls because they are bad

UNBELIEVABLE!

The guys an ass. He makes all of their business shows unwatchable. He can't be on air without attacking Obama or liberals for more the 30 seconds.

Oh I'm sure he wouldn't limit his rants to less than 30 seconds.

Guess how many times Trump was mentioned in this article. Not once. The media will report the facts. But it will never frame the facts in a way that does not support the establishment. And the dumbed down liberals are just too dumb to read stories like this and draw the proper conclusion.

Hi, welcome to this thread, which is currently about drumpf's lawyer pretending not to know about what's going on with the polls. Have a swell day.

This is just so sad and pathetic at this point. Does this moron seriously not know Trump is down according to EVERYONE?

Says who...what a f'n moron. Trump's camp needs to face reality and wake the hell up if they want to even try and win this race. I have serious doubts about Trump even wanting to win by his past and current behavior.

Why would Trump be mentioned in an article about something he had no involvement in? Why should we be surprised by that? I wasn't mentioned either. I'm outraged.

It's behind a paywall so I can't read the whole thing. How many times was Clinton mentioned in it?

He really doesn't. He also went on about how trump was seeing phenomenal support from blacks. Fox News recently polled him at 1%. His argument was "you'll see."

especially funny considering that Trump had to resort to tweeting out the one poll that shows him down by only 2 points!

I LOL'd when someone awhile back mentioned the idea about Hillary and Bill getting Trump to run interference for her by piling into the Repub Presidential Clown Car and make a mess of things.

However, now that Trump has been continuously belching up his trademark backfiring trash talk, I'm more and more inclined to believe that Trump really is in cahoots with the Clinton clan.

I mean, considering how often Trump is shooting himself in the foot, this explanation seems to rank right up there with any other.

It all feels like a giant rouse to me. Like the one of the highest stakes reality shows ever produced. And Trump is the star. Instead of PUNKD! It's TRUMPD! And in this show it won't be Ashton Kutcher that comes out at the end. It will be Scott Baio.

But Occam's Razor dictates that Trump really is the incompetent blunderbuss that everyone thinks he is.

True, but I've been in corporate America for years and I have never ever seen such an unfiltered jackass at his level. It's just bizarre IMO. He must be like the worst boss to work for ever.

I've seen close to this. It was the owner of a company who'd inherited massive wealth. People who act like this always seem to have been given loads of money.

Volunteering to explain your work-environment prompts me to post this observation somewhat in support of it.

Around 1987, Douglas LaBier published the 1st ed. of "Modern Madness: The Hidden Link Between Work and Emotional Conflict." It was essentially a study of issues in organizational psychology.

Since LaBier's offices were somewhere in DC or around K Street, he had actually written ~ 20 pages based on his observations about the impact of Reagan appointees on career employees -- their behavior and wellness.

Someone else here a few months back noted that he'd been passed over for key management positions because of his narcissistic behavior. So I posit there are healthy organizations and sick organizations in the economy, just as there may be more healthy or less healthy public institutions. I casually hypothesize that the sicker organizations can survive in a range of circumstances, and that this connection between an entire organization's health and that of individuals within it depends on its culture -- and its culture depends on how certain traits are rewarded or discouraged.

Someone like Trump, without the million-dollar-Daddy-Trump business loan and the inheritance of a ~$50+ million business at age 24, might find it harder to go forward in the world* unless they chose some environment like Hollywood or media with a spotlight. Trump on the other hand has had throughout life a means of circumventing the effect of these traits, and otherwise has either bullied or borrowed his way through his business-life. That could also prompt some more debate and discussion.

* Adding a footnote: Somehow an example from Farrell's fiction about early 20th-century life in Chicago -- the character Studs Lonegin, comes to mind. I never read the book, but saw a recent movie depiction -- possibly on PBS. The behavior of the character in the movie wouldn't diverge much at all from that in the book. It just seems to fit, but analyses of Farrell explain it in a completely different light.
