This is a really important interview to grasp the scope of the America-First economic challenge in front of Donald Trump and specifically U.S. workers.  Unfortunately, what follows below is the best version of the interview we can find and it has edits, significant edits by CNN, to the initial portion of the interview as it originally aired.
For those unfamiliar with how structured these types of interviews are, there are a few key aspects worth noting in advance of watching the video:

♦ CEO Mark Fields is not alone in this interview.  Off camera there are key corporate executive advisers, PR, Marketing, HR, Risk Mgmt., etc. positioned to give immediate feedback toward any sound bites that can have an adverse impact on the corporate objectives.  There’s a few times when you can see Fields taking cues from those voices.
♦ The CEO corporate culture (starts in MBA school) teaches executives how to use code words and phrases to avoid pitfalls, and unless you are skilled -or familiar- in detecting the nuance, much of the significant verbiage can be missed.  Words and phrases matter.
There’s a big difference between a major corporate CEO saying “investment in North America“, and “investment in America“.  The former references international trade agreements such as NAFTA which apply to Mexico the U.S. and Canada, the latter is directed to the United States.  Pay close attention and you’ll note the importance.

As we noted in the Bloomberg poll a few days ago (they were first – and we could tell something was up), the pollsters are shifting their methodology.   Almost every poll release in the past 72 hours has been using “Likely Voters” instead of “Registered Voters“.

When the methodology changes, so too does the result.   Multiple polls are now presenting Donald Trump as the lead candidate.  Actually, far more than the graphic above.
According to Monmouth (pollster Patrick Murray) Donald Trump is now leading 45% to Clinton’s 37%  (see here).   Trump is also winning in Colorado 42/38 (see here). Fox News also shifted their national methodology (pollster Daron Shaw) (see here) and now shows Donald Trump in the lead:

Why and HOW did all the pollsters simultaneously come to the same decision?

Right Side Broadcast Network is in Laconia, New Hampshire where Donald Trump will hold a rally later tonight at Laconia Middle School.  Here’s some pre-rally interviews with the local deplorables.

Hillary Clinton is back on the campaign trail today following three days of rest and recuperation from her physical collapse in New York on Sunday 9/11/16.
It is transparently obvious the Clinton campaign is reacting to her self-inflicted damage and simultaneous collapse in the polls.  The venue was, yet again, another college campus.
This time the University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG), this ensures a captive audience and helps the optics of crowd size – particularly when classes are suspended and professors “provide students the opportunity” to attend.  Today, approximately 1,000 students attended. [Prior to today the largest Hillary rally was in Tampa at the USF campus (2,000)]

♦ Predictably Clinton dropped the “deplorables” angle.  Quite simply that Alinsky attack Trump narrative failed miserably, backfired, and actually became a valuable tool of ridicule against the Clinton campaign. (more…)

Yesterday Donald Trump delivered a speech at Bethel United Methodist Church in Flint Michigan. During candidate Trump’s remarks he began to speak of the failed economic policies of past administrations including Bill and Hillary Clinton.
As Mr. Trump Pastor began addressing outsourcing and jobs, and the subsequent impact on Flint workers, pastor Faith Green Timmons interrupted and stated: “We invited you here to thank us, not to give a political speech“.

Not flustered, Mr. Trump calmly said thank you and concluded his remarks talking about how the damage to the Flint water system can be remedied and corrected.
The media immediately began to frame the interruption as “Trump being scolded“. However, what the media did not disclose was the interruption itself was a pre-planned set up by Pastor Timmons. (more…)
