Donald Trump chips away at Hillary Clinton’s national lead

This is an online poll aimed randomly at people who take other surveys sponsored by SurveyMonkey, with the results then weighted to match the demographics of the electorate. When you hear Democrats talk about gay rights and women’s rights, remember that they supported a nominee whose foundation took tens of millions from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and other countries that openly persecute gays and deny equality to women.

All that said, my headline’s not accurate. The hope is Rubio could attract voters who would end up also pulling the lever for Trump. “On July 26 they had Trump at 41.5 percent and Hillary at 36.3”.

Given the highly partisan nature of voting, it’s clear there are not that many voters who are persuadable.

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine offered a systematic takedown of Donald Trump’s business dealings and campaign claims Tuesday, arguing the Republican nominee’s presidential campaign amounts.

Sometime between 1979 and 1980, Trump hired a contractor to demolish an old building in midtown Manhattan to make way for Trump Tower.

In Georgia, a Democrat hasn’t carried the state since Bill Clinton in 1992, but public polls show Hillary Clinton up there and privately some top GOP operatives tell CNN they worry Trump could lose. Libertarian Gary Johnson has gained a point to 7 per cent, while the Green candidate Jill Stein is down one, at 3 per cent.

Last week Clinton led 50/42 head to head.

The issue has been a cornerstone of his campaign since Trump officially announced his run for the presidency in June 2015.

Jackson, who formed the Impact Network – with a reach of 50 million viewers, according to its website – with his wife Beverly Jackson in 2010, said his first question to Trump will be “Are you a Christian”. “It’s a four point lead in a four-way”, he explained.

Clinton is a little more than a percentage point from her high in the past 1 1/2 months of 50.84 on August 16.

While this has won him major points with his supporters, who are fed up with the political correctness of Washington while the country goes down the tubes, it will not help Trump win over moderates. Did Clinton err? Absolutely, but she has apologized for the deed, and yet the expectation appears to be that she should continue to address this issue as long as some malcontent wishes to dredge it up. But it is what it is.

“Donald Trump’s offensive rhetoric has made Utah more competitive than before, and given us an avenue to talk to new voters through many means”.

Note the very recent downward spike for Hillary paired with the ambiguous Trump trend. That’s not an especially hopeful sign for Trump given that he seems to be stuck between 41-42, but it’s something. “They know you’re going to do a good job once you’re there”. Notice any floors and ceilings? Pat Toomey, 45 percent to 41 percent. So as much as that idea may rile up crowds, Trump needs to ditch it in Phoenix to attract more voters. Until last week. That’s when Trump went off script and tried to add nuance to nonsense, fudging his hardline position on deportation.

Donald Trump weighed in on the scandal in a statement Monday, suggesting the incident was a national security issue and that Hillary Clinton was responsible. Something fundamental needs to change in the race for him to break through his ceiling. The reality is there are few concrete options available to lawmakers when they really get down to it.

Much to Trump’s chagrin, the voters even preferred things such as bedbugs, junk mail, carnies, bubonic plague and middle airplane seats to the real estate mogul. Perceptions that your party will still be divided in November aren’t supposed to increase after the convention, right? Trump asked African Americans as he stood before an overwhelmingly white audience in MI recently.

“It looks like Clinton’s got a friend in Pennsylvania, particularly in the Philly suburbs”, said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.
