Thread: Luntz: Focus Group Changed My View That Race Was 'Over' for Trump

After the second presidential debate tonight, Frank Luntz spoke to a focus group of undecided Missouri voters.

The participants overwhelmingly agreed that Donald Trump's debate performance had a greater impact on their vote than Hillary Clinton's.

Luntz said that he went into the debate thinking that Trump was finished after the candidate was heard on a 2005 hot mic talking about groping women.

"Based on their response ... I have to change my mind. I think tonight was so significant that is he back in this race," said Luntz.



Asked to describe Trump's performance in one word or phrase, the voters answered: more researched, more presidential, calm and strong.

Clinton, on the other hand, was labeled disingenuous, frustrated and unapologetic.

"Not a single new idea," one man said.

Luntz asked the focus group if Trump managed to put his derogatory remarks about women behind him, and the participants seemed split.

"It's an issue of character. I have daughters," one woman argued. A male participant dismissed the comments as "locker room talk."

"I would like to think men do not say that in locker rooms and if they do, maybe we need a woman running things," another woman shot back.

A third woman said morality cannot be regulated, but that the President of the United States should be "respectful" of others.

Some women have 'locker room talks' too...so implying women don't talk trash is either pride or denial...

Yeah, and if they're going to make such a big deal out of what he said on the video from 2005... where is the outrage for all the rap songs that degrade women with far worse speech such as actual rape and murder???

Just another hypocritical double standard being pushed by the left leaning media.

It's all a moot point anyway cause Jesus is about to remove the faithful... not all that claim to be Christians, just the ones that actually like separated unto Him.... and then the poop is gonna hit the fan in real time and president hillery will be left holdin the bag
