Elections Clinton vs Trump Polls thread (Clinton's Bounce Larger than Trump's)

I think if you're a Trump or Republican supporter you should see this:

i wonder what the backlash from those wikileaks will do to polling numbers -- there are a ton of bernie bros with rage in their minds right now towards the DNC

Garbage.

Hannity should be an easy target (just like any political talk show host that has picked a side)

Jon had to resort to lies and spin though to blast him.



When you take things out of context you can make anyone look like a liar or hypocrite
For example...the teleprompter part:

Trump does better and is more natural without a teleprompter. That is why in the clip Hannity was saying he did good with the teleprompter that night. They make it look like Hannity was blasting Obama for using a teleprompter and later praising Trump for using one. It is "comedy" but it is also propaganda through comedy.


Young ignorant impressionable minds believe this cut up garbage and for some it is their main source of news believe it or not. Not surprised that you fell for it (based on our past talks)

They don't vote. It's the Ron Paul crowd.

granted i never used twitter in '12

but damn, there is a lot of irate lefties salivating right now.

And the poll gap was closing prior to all of this.


#BernieMustDisavow is the top trend -- and with him talking next week at the DNC -- we could see some interesting polling come first week of aug.

Trump is ending up with about a 2-3% convention bump. We'll have to see where we're at next weekend, but I do expect it to stay pretty close for a while. I doubt Clinton gets a bigger bump than Trump. I'm not sweating the slacktivist Bernbros, but I do feel bad for Bernie himself. Good dude.

Trump has gained the lead in the RCP average in head-to-head polls against Hillary for the first time since announcing his candidacy:

[ripskater]

I think Hillary is in some trouble right now.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

too early to waaa-hooo -- trump bump may have came from the convention

need to wait on the conclusion on the DNC convention -- and have a complete july polling aggregate.

i really want new oddscheck odds to come out.

I was laughed at when I kept saying that Trump has a legitimate chance to win. Well, there it is. The man cannot be regarded as a joke, there is a clear pattern of people like Trump coming to power recently.

He's riding a wave right now and the likes of Hillary cannot stop the momentum if she keeps blundering.

There will be plenty of twists and turns to come, but you're right that Hillary and the DNC absolutely need to get their shit together. This has been a series of embarrassments. Not as bad as the entire WR is pretending, but pretty bad.

 

[Renard]

I can't tell if feel more concerned about Hillary being president or Trump being president. Hillary has the backing of all the powers that be, she's clearly the more stable politician but for all we know she's the next Merkel and will take an active role in destroying the quality of life of ordinary people. Trump is a loose cannon, not controlled by anyone that we know of but he's an idiot and egomaniac, he could do well or it could be a catastrophe.

 

[My Spot]

I hope Trump wins and then nominates Obama for the Supreme Court. 110% maximum rustle.

 

[Rygu]

I love Hillary's excuses for it all: You vote for Trump you're racist, vote against me you're sexist, i'm held to a different standard because sexism. Wah fucking wah. Hillary is garbage and Bernie is a fucking joke. Go Trump go and I don't even like the guy.

Should be a bigger story........

Funny part is that I got close on the numbers I was predicting for the convention, that would force the DNC to remove Clinton as the nominee. I said Trump with a 5-10 point lead, and Clinton with approval ratings around 30%. That is about where she is right now.

What I didn't count on, was the DNC's proclivity to go down with a sinking ship.

 

[Rod1]

A Trump presidency is scary as hell, but that may be what the political establishment needs as a wake up call.

I don't believe he has ever led her in the H2H (not for the average). You're probably thinking of the 3-way with Gary Johnson.

Goes to show what kind of candidates we are dealing with when EITHER of these two trash cans can't put the other out to the curb. Pathetic election and a real black mark on American politics.

It is not just the fault of the candidates, american politics is incredibly polarized right now due to the strategies the parties decided to take. The Dems with their identity politics vs the repbs with their religious right bullshit.

That is it makes little sense for a white straight guy to vote DEM as they clearly hate them and it makes even less sense for a hispanic to vote republican.
