Trump pulls out of New Jersey
With great fanfare, Trump’s campaign opened a New Jersey office on May 3 in Edison, which attracted a crowd of more than 1,000 supporters, according to a local news account.
Later that month, when one statewide poll showed Trump within 4 points of Hillary Clinton in the state, the Republican nominee projected confidence about the outcome.
”I think so,” Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity on May 31, when asked if he could win New Jersey. “I mean, I love New Jersey. I am New Jersey. Like a second home. I have property there. I have a lot of employees there. And frankly, I think we’re going to do well.”
But the Trump campaign appears to have pulled up stakes in the Garden State.
After two messages left at the number of Trump’s New Jersey headquarters were not returned, POLITICO visited the nondescript suburban complex listed as its address.
That office no longer exists.

I am certain there is a “pulling out” joke there, I just can’t quite get to it

Quite possibly because the “other d*ck’ is still in there… ?!?
Mike N. August 12th, 2016 at 12:04
Ha! Well he doesn’t have a lot of employees there now since he just shuttered the Trump Taj Mahal in AC after the union workers went on strike.
William August 12th, 2016 at 12:39
Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha.

Trump is going down in flames.

…and that fire will burn for a long, long time…

I will only add that the headline of this article reminds me of a line from Saturday Night Live many years ago when Chevy Chase was funny and hosted Weekend Update.
“”Fidel Castro announced he is pulling out of Angola. A frustrated Angola could not be reached for comment”
alpacadaddy August 12th, 2016 at 16:50
Those were very funny… “Good Evening, I’m Chevy Chase, and you’re not”…. or on the phone with his girlfriend “No, you don’t really blow, it’s just a figure of speech, oops, gotta go”.
But seriously folks, I’m sure NJ is glad to see him go, and the property values around that office probably just went up!
starskeptic August 12th, 2016 at 16:51
It was the U. S. that pulled out of Angola, btw…

You should check your facts before correcting people.

I’ll check my facts if you’ll check your ego…
bpollen August 13th, 2016 at 05:15
His ego? You were wrong, so he has an ego problem?
Sure, that makes perfect sense.
starskeptic August 13th, 2016 at 09:59
You want to go another round?
bpollen August 13th, 2016 at 13:28
I said what was needed. You were wrong. You claim it’s his ego that’s the reason, apparently. You can’t pretty that up.
If you want to go another round, explain clearly and concisely how his ego made you “correct” an accurate statement. “I’m wrong so he must be pompous.”
starskeptic August 13th, 2016 at 19:45
“I said what was needed.”
What an arrogant ass.
bpollen August 13th, 2016 at 19:53
So you can’t support your claim that your inaccuracies are caused by some OTHER person’s ego. Which pretty much means that there is no validity to your little tantrum.
And calling names REALLY makes you look like a tool.

It is common knowledge the downfall of the GOP is a conspiracy of the progressive liberal left wing socialists which is controlled by the working class
whatthe46 August 12th, 2016 at 21:36
clearly it’s not the fault of the party who preaches “personal responsibility.” oops

New Jersey, So that was her name.

Trump: ‘Hey we already bankrupted NJ six times! We’ll roll with a 40 whatever state strategy Ok.’ He only has a path to 170 of 538. http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/
NJ is number two in solar renewable energy behind California. You’ll never hear that from ExXon’s Guber Christie. Because NJ utilities bilk at record rates.
