WASHINGTON
Donald Trump has lost only minimal support since the news broke about lewd comments he made 11 years ago, a new poll released Sunday shows, but Trump could face more slippage.
A Morning Consult/Politico survey taken Saturday found Trump with 38 percent support to Hillary Clintons 42 percent. Trumps down from the 41-39 deficit he had on Oct. 5-6, just before the video surfaced Oct. 7.
The poll found 45 percent of voters said Trump should remain the race, while 39 percent wanted him out. Only 12 percent of Republicans said he should exit, despite increasing calls from party officials for him to leave. Trump has insisted he wont.
Three of four Republicans said GOP leaders should stand by Trump.
New CBS polling in Ohio and Pennsylvania also found similar results. Fifty-four percent of Ohio voters and 51 percent of Pennsylvania voters said the news did little to change their view of Trump, and both states, generally nine of 10 Republicans said it did not change their view of him. There was a gender gap. In Pennsylvania, 53 percent of women and 42 percent of men said it made their view of Trump worse.
While its too soon to know if the video will change attitudes much, the initial reaction to is suggests that it will certainly be on voters minds in tonights debate, wrote Anthony Salvanto, CBS News elections director, Sunday.

Bingo
If this is the “October Surprise” they had in store, it’s too soon. Trump has time left to recover and dismantle Hillary. As much as the media is blowing up this so-called “scandal” into the event of the century, it could easily be yesterday’s news come election day.
Better start panicking.
Come on pollsters call me. PULEEEEEZZZZZZ! Or the gopE. Yeah, they need to call me about now. Just re-enforced our resolve. Also saw a nice photo from GirlsWithGuns clothing supporting DJT! BOOM!
But he needs to send a torpedo into her amidships tonight. Must see TV
Lefty SacBee...who cares what they think?
This is the only hope they know
ugly women are jealous.
wait those are democrats because ugly goes down to the bone.
The title sounds like vaginal leakage.
Yeah Right!
The potential is there for you liberal slime to write a truthful news story too but that'll never happen either!
Coaching a child rapist on how to defeat a polygraph is “Okay”, but barracks talk is the worst thing in the universe (so sayeth the American Soviet Media).
Any and all sorts of sexual impropriety is now fair game.
Bad move, Hillary.
One almost wonders if they’ll not vote for him twice.
Maybe not even that either.
Now the Clinton hypocrisy has been placed on full parade.
Who would YOU prefer in charge of family-related policy in Washington anyhow? Someone who told a naughty story ten years ago or someone who covered up for her husband’s rapes?
so from the video...
he admitted he failed
he admitted he took her furniture shopping
he at a tic tac
he observed grouping women CONSENT to anything.
(consent being the operative word)
tic tac withdrew support of trump. ???? tic tac now found in your grocer’s garbage section.
Anderson cooper is deeply saddened.
They will keep releasing more tapes accompanied by the media feeding frenzy, with the press feigning outrage until election day. Voters have weak stomachs, but this all could still backfire.
