Poll: Clinton Eats Away at Trump's Lead Among Men, White Voters
NBC News ^ | 6/14/16 | Hannah Hartig, John Lapinski and Stephanie Psyllos

Posted on 06/14/2016 3:55:46 AM PDT by CaptainK

Hillary Clinton made history last week when she became the first woman to represent a major political party as the presumptive Democratic nominee. Her good week got even better when President Obama and Sen. Elizabeth Warren formally endorsed her.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, received quite a bit of negative attention from inside his own party, including a few Republicans walking away from their previous endorsements of him. Influence of the events of the past week is evident in the most recent NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll, which shows Clinton leading Trump by 7 points, 49 percent to 42 percent. The poll was conducted online June 6 through June 12 among 9,355 adults who say they are registered to vote.

It is an NBC poll. Nothing But Crap.

I wonder what University campus they conducted this poll on.

Note the survey was concluded on the 12th. I wonder what day it was supposed to conclude. I bet the events in Orlanda interrupted the planned date. Wanna bet?

You suggest Trump conduct himself logically. Think about it. Those of us who have nurtured the gift of reason already understand the intricacies of Trump vs. Hillary. We are already on board. What Trump is doing is out playing the Alinskyites at their own game. He is hitting the feeling buttons with some skill. He says something that he knows will get their knickers in a bunch and then let’s them have at him. They spend 24 hours wailing Trump this, Trump that. (Remember there is no such thing as bad publicity to these folks, their words, not mine.). Rinse and repeat. Notice each time we discover the judge IS racist, or Hill and Bill have done much worse at Laureate U. Trump just let’s that “sword of Damocles” hang. The libtards have to retreat to their lairs licking their wounds knowing they “dasn’t go there again” because Trump just let that sharp point hang.

All these IEDs of their own creation are just out there hanging. Notice, he never goes back and defuses them. I suspect Trump will wait for his debates with Hillary to start detonating these. When he has the unfiltered attention of the unwashed. Let Hillary defend Laureate U off the cuff, under the klieg lights, while America watches. As the weeks go by Trump is accumulating these tidbits. I would not be surprised if Hillary refuses to debate because of this.

Hahahahahaha....

Any poll showing Clinton with a nearly double digit lead has so many structural problems with its sampling that its crazy.

I don’t deny their results showed this, but pretty clear whoever they were polling were not remotely representative of the electorate.

Yeah, OK, sure.

Understanding the intricacies is great. But at some point he has to poll better than Clinton to win the election.

Until that starts happening, most if not all of what you said pretty much falls into the category of hopeful bullshit.

The next 3 weeks of polling decides the race, IMHO. If he can’t pull ahead in this context, he’s done.

Think about it. Can’t you just see some 25 year old snowflake just so committed to Hillary, pulling up to the TV, anticipating with glee the thrashing Trump is gonna get from the “smartest woman in the world” only to watch in horror to see her accused of one scandal after the next that snowflake HAS NEVER EVEN HEARD ABOUT. He has heard endless and loud claims that Trump is a racist, Trump U, etc., etc. but not ONE PEEP about the endless scroll of Klinton corruption we are only too painfully aware of for the last twenty years. There are millions of snowflakes out there that are absolutely ripe for an epiphany. I predict that many will actually have their heads explode and so will be lost forever but the survivors are gonna be pissed when it dawns on them how they have been lied to and manipulated out of a birthright of liberty that they will not be able to enjoy.

We should prepare ourselves to welcome these “new brothers in arms”. It could be glorious.

Registered voter polls are useless. But then, they know that.

Fighting doesn’t allow you to make legislation?

Nice try, that is the lamest thing I’ve heard ever to try to tear down our candidate.

He didn’t mention anything about La Raza or the law firm that gave Clinton money. He messed up bad. He created a very bad news cycle when he could have grabbed the news cycle with a strong argument against the judge. Again....he messed up and he messed up badly.

So... is that your conclusion, having looked at the evidence and carefully considering it? Or is that your knee-jerk reaction after being bombarded with the media's fake hysteria over Trump calling out the racist judge for being racist?

This same tactic has been played out over and over for decades to take out good conservative candidates. The media cabal watches each candidate and waits for them to say something... anything... that they can spin into a huge negative. It does not matter who the candidate is or what he actually says, the goal is to make conservative voters doubt the candidate. Because liberals don't win elections with issues, they win by emotional manipulation designed to get mindless emotion-driven voters out to the polls and to suppress the conservative vote. Forget about issues, as long as the general direction is away from freedom, the media does not care.

The frustrating thing to me is not that the media plays this game, but that, despite decades of it being replayed every single election, there are enough conservatives who will see the media criticism and agree with the media. They agree that the candidate misspoke, and that he may not be the man for the job, and then they withhold their votes, waiting for a better candidate who won't say things to alarm the media. The problem is, the conservative candidate who avoids doing anything to cause the media to criticize him does not exist.

The media hits the hardest when the candidate is the biggest threat to their socialist utopia. Trump is a huge threat to that. The media is especially desperate this time around, because they have been working long and hard to bring America down and turn it into a socialist utopia. Because once America goes down, there is no freedom left in the world, and nowhere else to go for people trying to escape tyranny. And they can't stand to see the damage that Obama has done reversed. Not now, not when we are so close to becoming another Venezuela.
