^The endorsements did look plastic to me. Trump supporters keep blaming the media for his nosediving poll numbers, but the media is no more hostile to him than it has been for any other Republican presidential candidate. If he wanted the media to treat him fairly in the general campaign, then he should have faced off with Hillary and Bernie in the Democrats' primaries.

Trump needs to stop talking about himself incessantly and start using words like "we" and "our" much more. More than anything else, he needs to focus his attacks on Obama and Hillary and stop whining about how badly he is being treated and how everything is rigged against him. Whining is not an admirable trait in a presidential candidate.

IMO, Trump's endorsements of McCain and Ayotte while campaigning in Wisconsin was a waste of time. Key presidential endorsements are much more effective during joint appearances in the endorsee's home district or state, IMO. Trump needs to win Arizona and winning New Hampshire would be a great pickup for him. More importantly, a Trump presidency without Republican control of the Senate would be disastrous.
