Toxic Trump distanced by surragotes Vs. Big Names Campaigning for Hillary Clinton
Big Names Campaigning for Hillary Clinton Underscore Donald Trump’s Isolation
Hillary Clinton campaigned Friday in the company of friends and celebrities, first flanked by the billionaire businessman Mark Cuban in Pittsburgh and then bound for a Jay Z concert in Cleveland. High-wattage political leaders fanned out for her around the country: Her husband, Bill, stumped in Colorado, as President Obama rallied voters in North Carolina.
By comparison, Donald J. Trump was a lonely figure.

But in each of those states, the best-known local Republicans have shunned Mr. Trump: The Republican governors of all three states have withheld their support, and Representative Joe Heck of Nevada, the Republican nominee for Senate there, withdrew his endorsement of Mr. Trump last month. (Mr. Heck has given indistinct signals since as to whether he will vote for Mr. Trump.)
Mr. Trump’s surrogate operation took another blow on Friday with the news that two former associates of Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey had been convicted of engineering a plot to snarl traffic on the George Washington Bridge. Mr. Christie, an ally of Mr. Trump who has been leading his presidential transition team, was scheduled to campaign for Mr. Trump in New Hampshire over the weekend. - The New York Times

Like Donald says, he is who he says he is...Toxic Trump, shunned and avoided by his own divisive rhetoric.
