WTF? Trump addressed much of his speech to African Americans, all the while to an all white crowd in an all white town 40 miles from Milwaukee. If this is an example of the genius of Roger Ailes - and yes the speech sounded very much like Roger Ailes - I would say that maybe Ailes is not going to be such an asset for Trump.

(15,805 posts)Every news outlet, every journalist, pundit and commentator is discussing, parsing, examining and critiquing avery word Trump said, and not focusing on Hillary (and there are both pluses and minuses there) as the front runner. If he's achieved nothing else, Trump won the news cycle for the next several days.
