What Life Looks Like Through The Eyes Of A Trump Voter
Campaign Ad: “Don’t Believe The Hat”
New campaign spot from Hillary Clinton calls Donald Trump out for saying he wants to “make America great again,” but in real life outsourced his manufacturing to 12 countries including China, India, Mexico and Slovenia.
With shots of Trump wearing his campaign cap, the 30 second clip includes the tagline, “Don’t Believe The Hat.”
Dear Donald: You can’t make America great again when you don’t make things in America.https://t.co/5MZTsOyzIH— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) August 29, 2016

Most Fabulous Baton Twirling Routine EVER!
I promise this will be the most fabulous thing you see today on the interwebs.
Quickly going viral, this video – posted to Facebook by The Baton Twirling Sport Association of Ireland – features an unidentified girl performing an awesome routine to the Broadway classic, “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going,” from Dreamgirls.
It’s a flawless routine that includes several passes where she throws the baton so high she has time to do three flips before she catches the baton behind her head!
I screamed out loud a few times. If you need something to lift you up this morning – this is it.
I looked and looked for her name because she deserves a serious shout out. Congrats!
UPDATE: The talented twirler’s name is Savannah Miller and she was world champion in 2015. My Twitter pal Tracey Heinhold informs me this is from this year’s world championships where Savannah came in 2nd!
Has Donald Trump’s Campaign Manager Met Her Boss?
I honestly don’t think Donald Trump’s campaign manager knows who she’s working for.
As I say over and over, I can only hope she’s getting paid a TON of money to embarrass herself like this.
According to many in political circles, she’s very well regarded. At least before she took on this challenge.
Trump Campaign Defends Trump Tweet About Death Of NBA Star’s Cousin
Donald Trump’s campaign manager sought to tamp down criticism of Donald Trump’s insensitive tweet Saturday which looked to capitalize on the shooting death of NBA star Dwyane Wade’s cousin.
From The Hill:
“He tweeted his condolences to the family right after that,” Kellyanne Conway said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“I would like everybody to know about both tweets, because I think it’s incredibly important for all of us to come together in a very nonpartisan fashion and express our condolences to families like the Wade family and also our outrage that things like this can happen.”
Trump on Saturday faced backlash over his tweet about Nykea Aldridge, who was caught in crossfire and shot in the head and arm while leaving a school in Chicago.
“Dwayne [sic] Wade’s cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago. Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!” he tweeted.
He later posted another tweet expressing his condolences to the family.
Conway says Trump tweeted his condolences “right after” the first tweet, but that’s not accurate.
If you check the time stamps on the original tweet and then the “condolences” tweet they were four hours apart. The first was sent at 6:24AM, the second at 10:48AM.
It took Trump more than four hours to realize how heartless he appeared. And more importantly, “condolences” weren’t his first impulse.
By the way, Trump couldn’t even manage to spell Dwyane Wade’s name correctly in his original tweet.
#Sad #Loser
Campaign Ad From #NeverTrump “Keep Your Word”
Another campaign ad using Donald Trump’s own words against him.
During the GOP primary season, Donald Trump repeatedly told the press he would drop out of the race if polls showed him losing.
“What am I? A masochist?” he said.
The #NeverTrump folks will be running this spot in several swing states urging the Trumpster to drop out of the race so another candidate can possibly beat Hillary Clinton.
Real Clear Politics average of polls shows Trump would lose in a landslide if the election were held today – 362 to 176 in the electoral college.
Radio Show: Talking With Dancing With The Stars Champ Nyle DiMarco
 |
| Nyle DiMarco |
Earlier this week I had the opportunity to meet and interview the very handsome and charming Nyle DiMarco, winner of both America’s Next Top Model and Dancing with the Stars.
DiMarco is set to begin a run as the Chippendales‘ “Celebrity Guest Host” in Las Vegas at the Rio Hotel & Casino beginning September 22nd.
Here’s my radio show interview:
Dancing with the Stars/America’s Next Top Model champ Nyle DiMarco talks with me about his upcoming gig as next Celebrity Guest Host at Chippendales in Las Vegas at the Rio Hotel & Casino.
Along the way, Nyle shares some of his secrets to learning those amazing dance routines for DWTS; his plans for the Nyle DiMarco Foundation which aims to get American Sign Language learning access to deaf children and their families; the first time someone made a fuss about his most handsome face; plus, what his thoughts on the current fashion trends.
Most interviews you see or hear on TV are shortened to two or three questions, so this 20 minute interview is probably one of the longest, more detailed Q&As you’ll find of him, thanks to his generosity of time.
