Yes, despite being cash poor, Trump’s campaign still found ways to spend money on businesses that were owned by Trump himself. A majority-54 percent-say Clinton would be better in handling an worldwide crisis while 39 percent think Trump would be. For months, the biggest cash injections into his campaign coffers were from his personal bank accounts. He said Republican Party chairman Reince Priebus “has been terrific” but he needs more help from other GOP leaders. Trump is more honest and trustworthy (43 percent to 40 percent).
The news came on the same day Trump dumped his controversial campaign manager as he tried to revitalize his White House bid after recent stumbles.
According to the latest survey conducted by Monmouth University, Mrs Clinton would have attracted 49 per cent of the national vote to Mr Trump’s 41 per cent if the election had been held last weekend.

Sanders and his supporters consistently assert that he would be a better general election candidate against Trump than Clinton.
Cruz, who exited the race on May 3, raised almost as much money as Trump in May – about $2.7 million to Trump’s $5.6 million – and ended the month with five times more cash on hand, with $6.8 million to Trump’s $1.3 million.
