There are no perceptions that Trump is not qualified, the MSM/Hillary campaign is trying to peddle this, to help her.

Anyone with any sense knows that Trump is fully qualified and is just what this country needs at this point, to "make America great again".

And half of that 4 points is tantruming never Trumpers who will be back onside on Nov. 8th. This is a dead heat, IMO.

You left out the key quote:

"Nonetheless, the controversy appeared to have had only a minimal impact on his overall support."

The Washington Post is echoing Hillary’s campaign’s only talking point. Pathetic.

I also bet the Ind’s are left leaning. It’s so easy to manipulate these polls.

Actually good results for Trump. First, his support held, second, people did not care about the tapes AND half of both men and women said this was typical conversations anyway, third, he has enthusiasm advantage, and fourth, there is a sizeable number of undecideds. That latter are advantage Trump. Elsewhere there is report of undecideds breaking to Trump. The email revelations hurt Clinton; more tapes won’t hurt Trump. End result, Trump wins.

Nearly 7 in 10 respondents believe Trump probably made unwanted sexual advances, and a majority say his apology for boasts about forcing himself on women on a hot-mic videotape was insincere. Nonetheless, the controversy appeared to have had only a minimal impact on his overall support.

So even one of the most leftist, anti-Trump “news sources” is
admitting the week-long media ambush went nowhere. Remember this the next time you’re about to get sucked into the media bubble of gloom and doom.
