DAVID FRUM'S DREAM IN THE ATLANTIC

++Before I talk about Frum's fantasy about Trump being elected, we have to agree on some facts. 54% of the electorate for the 2016 election are women. Women hold a 23% approval rating for Donald Trump. Today's Sunday Times runs a story that interviewed 50 women who have come across Trump in a variety of ways . But Reince Preibus says "People don't care about how Trump treated women." Except people includes women. 

++Trump called Elizabeth Warren "Pocahantas" in this morning's phone call with Maureen Dowd,his secretary. It was a twofer,insulting Indians and Elizabeth Warren who has been getting the better of him on twitter.

++So Frum ignores all this and says that Hillary, she who is to be blamed,set herself up for defeat by criticizing Bernie Sanders on guns,thereby losing Ohio and Pennsylvania. After courting the Hispanics,polls show that Hillary wins Latinas by a wide margin but the guys by not as much. He doesn't report that Trump is likely to do less than Romney among a part of the population the GOP needs 47% to win.

++Frum, the inventor of the Axis of Evil,says that Hillary's messaging will be poorer than Trump's--I fear this and the millenials will stay home after Sanders loses. This will enable Trump to win with the male vote.

++Gee,I never thought about that. Frum is delusional.
