2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWho is this "Hillary" I keep hearing about?
News radio in Oklahoma always tells me about this Trump guy who goes everywhere, holds rallies, says lots of things all the time, giving speeches, doing interviews. I gather he's trying to be the next President. I'm not sure why they call what he's doing a "campaign," because they never mention that anyone is running against him. There is, apparently, a woman who critiques him sometimes, and they'll mention that, or they might quote her reaction to something Trump has said, but that's about it. Oh, yeah, they did mention she had some big news Thursday, but it was just how much money she's raised from rich Hollywood liberals this week. Is that Hillary? I get the impression she might not like Trump, but he's inevitably the next President anyway since no one else wants the job, from what I can tell. This isn't opinion crap, like talk radio, this is the drive-time news, so it's probably accurate.

Otoh, when Bill Clinton was Gov of Arkansas he and Hillary helped the Cherokee Nation take control of of the Arkansas riverbed in the Nation.

To be honest, I listen to that station during my morning commute for the traffic and weather. The "news" is all: what's Trump doing right now; robberies; what did Trump say about something; shootings and homicides; what did Trump eat for breakfast; statewide budget cuts; who did Trump Jr. interview with last night; gun owners shooting home invaders; and daily reflections that that Trump may pivot any moment now.
Weirdly, they don't mention campaign polls much.
