Past statements and actions can matter. The Bush campaign was able to effectively label John Kerry as a flip flopper in 2004.
The other part of this though is that Trump also has to become more disciplined and stay on message, otherwise his antics just grab more attention and overshadow things.
No doubt the MSM is doing everything in their power to discourage the Trump people. Sadly some people on our side are doing nothing to help the situation. Keep in mind the MSM had the sharp knives out for Kamala just a few months ago, when they were talking about what a horrible VP she has been. Just a bunch of lying scoundrels.
We can only hope this will all blow over and the American people will see the truth.
Every time there's a story online saying "Christians" sign a petition saying Trump is evil, Clarence Thomas is evil, Justice Alito is evil, etc, it's always Faithful America. I hope people aren't fooled by these phonies. Why do they never call out Adam Schiff or other truly evil people on the left?
