With the rise of the Democratic Senator to second place, or tied with Bernie Sanders….
The Trump campaign prepare a game plan…
For months, Trump’s campaign had focused its fire on Joe Biden, the early front-runner in the battle for the Democratic U.S. presidential nomination.
But Warren’s surge to the top of the Democratic pack in recent opinion polls and her strong fundraising – $9 million more than Biden in the third quarter alone – has not gone unnoticed, two people inside the Republican president’s re-election team told Reuters.
They said the campaign is evaluating the vulnerabilities of all the Democratic candidates and it was still too early to single out any of them as the likely nominee. But, one of the officials said, “Her rise is undeniable.”
The nascent game plan on how Trump would attack the liberal U.S. senator from Massachusetts differs from the manner in which his team had gone after Biden, seeking to portray the former vice president as corrupt based on allegations of wrongdoing – made without substantiation – arising from his son’s past role with a Ukrainian energy company.
The president’s team sees vulnerabilities for Warren among voters to the charge of being dishonest, based in part on internal campaign data, the members of Trump Victory – the name for his 2020 re-election campaign – told Reuters, asking not to be named while discussing internal deliberations.
They said the central pillars of any attack on Warren’s trustworthiness would be based on her assertion that she would not raise taxes on the middle class to pay for her ambitious Medicare for All healthcare system overhaul, and the controversy over her previous claims of Native American ancestry….
Note…
Warren just played into Trump’s hand by proposing a YUGE tax increase for her healthcare plan…

New Gallup Poll…
92% of Republicans oppose impeaching and removing Trump .
Unsurprising and once again shows that the constant drumroll here from a certain poster that as things came out Republicans would start turning on Trump is and remains total BS?
And the reason?Simple.Donald Trump IS the Republican Party.He well represents its “values” and prejudices.He is who they are.
But by all means let’s keep trying to “sell” this stuff about Republicans “turning”on Trump.
What a damn joke!

It certainly is Jack.
As I recall, this time four years ago Chris Christy was the leading Republican for their nomination. We read about it daily.
How did that work out?
