Just like Kobe in basketball.  Roethlesberger in Football.  On and on.  Only rapists without game get cut.

And what is Trumps experience in government.
I seem to recall him "firing" people from a job they didn't have yet and running many failed businesses.

He doesn't have any experience in government.  And his plans are half-baked at best.  Yet the Clinton campaign is focused on lude comments on a bus as the main reason why he shouldn't be president.

I get why Clinton's team focuses on Trump's lewd remarks and all-around boorish and offensive behavior. However, in my opinion, it's an unfortunate move on their part to focus almost exclusively on that going into the stretch.

Trump's utter lack of experience, his inane sound-bite "policy proposals", and his embarrassing ignorance of basic civics should have been hammered on relentlessly from day one. The man is not fit for the Presidency. Period. This should have been Clinton's "negative" campaign rallying cry all along. You don't fight a self-aggrandizing scumbag like him on his own turf and then cede the policy high ground in the last week of the campaign. You fight him on your terms and according to your own strengths. She could have dragged him out to policy deep water and drowned him long ago. Now it's too late for that. And while she slings shit, he reads his teleprompter and does his best to appear restrained and statesmanlike. I want to puke every time I turn on the news these days.

This vaunted ground game the DNC has in place had better be damned good at turning out the vote because this race is now closer than it ever should have been.

I concur.  The only thing I can think of is that they've polled his 'America First' "policy proposals" and even unspecified nonsense does better than what she's saying she'll do.  Or maybe what people think she'll do.

Because all the intelligent people watched the debates and know that Trump shouldn't be anywhere near the White House, not even as a visitor.  The people who are still undecided are the ones who are more likely to respond to Trump's lack of character.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Yes.  Things related to governing are more important than things unrelated to governing when picking a person to do some governing.

Given his obvious ignorance of the Constitution, I doubt governance is in his skill set. He cannot even govern himself, and he wants to govern a nation of 320 million?
