Actually it is kind of refreshing to hear him called out. That man has been singularly destructive to the nation and the campaign process.

His focus group did not just turn against Trump after this one debate. They were paid to say this.
Also, Fox rigged their criteria to get fraudulent moderate Kasich into the debate.

Where he was bemoaning the toxicity of politics and pondering getting into some other profession. Of course, he couldn't see his role in making things as toxic as they are.

Luntz is also the clown who gave the Rethugs the loaded focused group words to describe Democrats.

Trump said he begged to ride on his private jet.

consists of variations of calling other people "stupid." I've noticed this one for years.

A recent Twitter exchange with someone who writes for a living brought it home like little else possibly could. Trump was incoherent and each successive post was "yer dumb" or a variation thereof. He was completely unable to address any other complaint he might have had.

I won't be a bit surprised in a few years when his Alzheimer's is announced.

Offhand, the advice I'd give to his fellow Republicans is to keep pushing him, show how thin his skin is, show up his incoherence.

Trump will eventually defeat Trump.

A kid on a playground can come up with better insults than Trump does. This is just another example of how derelict the MSM are in their roles.

and very well-earned as Luntz has always been a steaming pile of Fox News shit.

"Frank Luntz is a low class slob who came to my office looking for consulting work and I had zero interest."


LOL Trump dismissed him like a vacuum cleaner salesman who came to his door.

He is a slimy, highly intelligent mercenary propagandist who has made himself a bloody fortune by putting the right words in Republican mouths so that idiots will vote for them. If he was holding his hat at Trump's door, it's because he knew a Trump contract would have brought him many millions, and a refusal would have cost him nothing. Trump said no, but so what? Ailes and the Kochs still have a few billion left to toss some of it his way. Luntz knows how to play to idiots because it's what he does better than almost anyone. Do not make the mistake of thinking he has become one of them.
