With regard to the King our man the Don, Mr Trump: He needs to line up facts & shoot them at his opponent like a Tommy Gun.
Like he’s wearing a pin-stripe suit. It’s a little pedantic, but that’s the way this game is being played by the other side and because of MSM and the establishment with him carrying the narrative, he has to play the game with them. What are Killary Klowncar Klinton’s main hit pieces on him?
1 Bad business practies
2 Deplorable (white male)
Mr Trump is a business man he knows how to handle objections. It’s just like a sale. We need to start from the premise that as opposed to selling the juice to the consumer, he merely needs to protect the prize already won and close the deal.
He is like a hedge fund manager of truth wrapped in an election for the people. He is merely hedging the prize of helping us
Clinton’s other charge:
3 tax returns
3a implication he is not paying fed tax
3b implication finance write-offs
3bi implication of being beholden to finance companies. Very simple to rebut/handle the criticism. Obviously.
But the most important thing besides actually handling the objections per se is the attitude and outlook Mr Trump has regarding the handling forecast and how he deals with it. He needs to understand & acknowledge 2 main things (1 the people don’t trust Clinton or her establishment/MSM & 2 the people do trust Trump - thus the onus of responsibility for establishing burden of proof is on her):
Trust in Clinton in particular & her estab MSM etc in general is at an all-time low near zero (even & esp among the usual suspect list of unearned hyper-privileged dissident constituents) cf Millennials et al
Trust in Mr Trump is at an all-time high for any respect/dignity/challenge candidate (his meme-ology is deified). In view of the fact his word association themes carry an undercurrent of god-like status he needs to believe in himself & not be defensive of his record on stage against Clinton - who is, again, unbelievable.
For her this is about more money & immunity for her crimes and to continue the insider cronyism of monopoly capitalism. For Trump this has nothing to do with money he has that. It is about restoration of order and justice to swing the pendulum back to rationality and common sense - to provide security and jobs for our people and have good relations with neighbors.
That said, Trump can afford to wheel and deal with crony Clinton onstage using some good lawyering and debate tactics. Instead of backing up his business record he should recognize that as Red Herring and turn the table to her risk exposure in a way that is even somewhat dismissive (in a polite but firm way of course). Her charge that his business is blah blah can be rebutted by Whitewater, a predatory mortgage finance scandal of sweetheart property deals exploiting taxpayers, a scandal which not incidentally ties in with Emailgate (same obstructionist counsel in Cheryl Mills, same crony investigator in James Comey). These people just cycle through the scandals with the same faces and names but different prey.
Clinton’s appeal to middle-class is hokey & false & she has no business acumen so Trump needs to not dignify her with a response on that topic. With regard to interpersonal issues, those are also Red Herrings (women etc) Trump doesn’t need to defend himself at all. There is limited time Clinton is trying to drag us all into the weeds where she can catch him up and then use that to betray the people. Interpersonal territory is her angle since she is running on Civil Rights Affirmative Action license to do anything she wants because of her identity. She will prevaricate and machinate w/r/t issues that portray her as a cute empowered victim of the establishment’s HNIC plantation narrative.
Trump does not want to play identity politics with Clinton and defending any identity issues is a ruse to undermine him. Unless Trump wants to relitigate the 1964 Civil Rights Act and Hart-Cellar on stage he should merely avoid the topic by dismissing her and focusing on her scandals - not by defending himself. We know she wants to spend all her time pampering and primping herself on stage about identity issues because that’s all she’s got. She’s a woman. That’s a cosseted symbology.
Mr Trump needs to shine light on the fact that Ms Clinton will do nothing for the people all she cares about is herself making excuses about and using identity for license to arrogate property liberty facts - you name it- in the name of SJW.
It couldn’t be more conclusively - veritably - stated Clinton is the SJW candidate. Trump is America’s candidate. SJW has brought America to its knees and Killary’s donor class is standing over America with a broadsword to decapitate.
Summary & Reiteration (Conclusion):
Clinton Camp’s Claims (and counterattacks/objection handling):
1 Business : her claims are irrelevant (hit her on Whitewater).
2 Identity : she has done nothing for Aframs/inner city in fact her husband’s draconian crime bill has put many unnecessarily in jail for extended periods showing no mercy (e.g., mandatory minimums) furthermore she would continue Obama’s [meta-]policies of racial division internecine strife & civil war by proxy (leftism). Mr Trump has empowered women in business.
3 Finally, to the issue of tax returns (a nothingburger): Mr Trump is beholden to no one. With respect to her donor class (to which she is beholden) she owes favors to the Saudis et al who spread terrorism.
