Clinton's double-digit lead is up from an 8-point gap last week. The 10-point margin is the biggest spread in the tracking poll since the two-way general election match-up was first compared in early May.

I think the cat’s opinion is probably more meaningful than this poll!

It is sad when nothing can be believed. Thanks LIB-idiots for creating this Tower of Babel.

The MSM touts these polls, then puts forward a 3rd party anti-Trumper, parade GOP never Trumpers, have Bushbots write letters...why?

If Clinton has this in the bag, why such overkill?

If Clinton has this in the bag, why are they still pushing stories about replacing Trump. That should be the last thing they want, right? They should all be gloating instead of pearl clutching and hand wringing (out of ‘concern’ for the GOP...riiiight)

All BS. They’re scared and they know the truth that Trump is a huge threat to the Uniparty.

Also, they need to destroy Trump now before the majority of the states pass the dates to get 3rd party candidates on the ballot. The next 10 days should be telling.

What also worries the MSM (Hillary’s Flying Monkeys)?

Her health
The pro-jihadist gaffes (Khans, Orlando shooter’s dad)
Any new jihad attacks before Nov
Clinton Foundation
WikiLeaks
Snowden

This is the Dems Ardennes offensive - throw everything they have in one final drive.

Go TRUMP!

I just see how any Republican/Conservative can win a Presidential election anymore. I’ve said it before and I will say it again. Our population is dumber than a box of rocks. And have you seen the latest generation. They will be voting in the near future.

These polls are BS and you know it. I could barely bring myself to vote for Romney.

Loser from the start.

We will see after the debates.”

Suspect they will happen - Hillary, Trump and Johnson. If two guys appear to gang up on Clinton will rally the females. Moderates may make sure that Hillary never has to answer questions so it will end up being between Trump and Johnson and media will spin the wonderful, thought provoking and adult answers of Hillary. The spin is in.

Normally I would agree that Hitlery should be VERY nervous about the debates, to the point that she breaks down beforehand. I am amazed at the amount of stress she must be under.

Having said that, I have to remember who controls her. Evil people can have amazing strength - it seems to be a very strong force.

Let’s take these point-by-point.

Her health - Perhaps the most legitimate one. If she keels over and has a major episode on live TV it will become impossible to run from this issue.

The pro-jihadist gaffes (Khans, Orlando shooter’s dad) - Most of the sheeple are blissfully unaware of these. Breitbart did yeomans duty unmasking the Khans, but by the time their homework was done America had “moved on”.

Any new jihad attacks before Nov - THIS is the major wild-card that could definitely turn the tide for Trump. Dems have to be completely white-knuckled just thinking about it. They will attempt to immunize themselves, so I would look for some aspirin factories to start exploding very soon.

Clinton Foundation - If Comey and Lynch won’t go after her for the server, they’re not going after her for this. It’s the ideal scam because it’s so complex and convoluted most people will quickly give-up even trying to understand it.

WikiLeaks - I’m still not convinced that Assange is not just firing random shots across her bow, trying to rattle her into cutting a deal to get him out of that basement.

Snowden - At this point totally under the control of Putin, and I still can’t believe that Vlad would rather have Trump in there than an utterly compromised Hillary.

Most are reasonably accurate.
Not this one- it even says it isn’t!

“I’m having real trouble with the polls this year.”

The number I look at when the polls come out is the comparison to the senate race. Many of the battleground states also have key senate races this year.

The numbers are more than concerning.

In the Pennsylvania poll that just came out today, Clinton leads Trump by 10 %. Toomey is losing his senate race by 2 %. The top of the ticket running 8 % below the rest is a real drag on the ballot.

Yesterday a poll came out in Georgia. Trump is down 7 % but Isackson is up 9 %. Again Trump is running far below the senate candidate.

Heard Rush yesterday. He is supporting Trump in the Paul Ryan style.

This election is DIFFERENT! The people are FED UP. We never had a candidate like Trump before. This ain’t your dad’s general election.

The uniparty and the media are on a blitzkrieg to destroy Trump. It isn’t going to work.

GO TRUMP!

NBC takes its marching orders from Hillary anyway. The media is completely fabricating polls.

The Republicans have no commitment to anything except their own personal careers. That”s why we are losing.

It has always been the case that the presidential campaign doesn’t begin until after Labor Day. I think Trump knows that a lot of TV ads this early fall on deaf ears. He’s saving the big guns for the end of September and October when the ads will have the most effect on the Independents and undecided (at least I hope that is the strategy).

Good points. They’ve thrown everything and the kitchen sink at Trump, and yet he remains a threat. The Uniparty has to work OT to get Hillary’s sorry behind past the finish line first. I see the pessimism all over this site, and I can understand it, but I believe a large, silent majority is keeping their mouths shut and will hit like a tsunami on Nov. 8th. We shall see, won’t we?
