After last weekend’s turmoil among the Battlin’ Democrats – notably in Las Vegas – this weekend greeted them with a group of new polls, all of which appeared to show that Donald Trump is at least in range of Hillary Clinton, if not actually leading her.

Real estate developer and reality TV star Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, is scheduled to appear at the Anaheim Convention Center on Wednesday and at the San Diego Convention Center on Friday.

“That’s exactly what he’s fishing for”, she said on CNN. “I don’t think there’s any woman in America that doesn’t understand that”.
