37% for both Trump and Hillary.

CLINTON CAMPAIGN FREAKING OUT AS DONALD TRUMP LEADS IN THE POLLS

In a recent poll done by OANN/Gravis where they asked 40% Dems, 33% Republicans and 27% Independents who they would vote for, Donald Trump won with flying colors. Keep in mind these poll numbers came out before the DNC email leaks, where they were exposed for collusion with the media, lies and deception. Once new polls come out, there will be an even more drastic difference in people not wanting to vote for Hillary Clinton and i’m sure a lot jumping on to the Trump train.

The truth is that is socially unacceptable to say you are a Trump supporter with fear of losing jobs, friends and family many people say they will vote Democrat. Although, it’s possible that on election day, Trump could end up with upwards of 57% of the popular vote.

Donald Trump is known for saying “I haven’t even started on her yet” and this is very true. Once Donald Trump faces Hillary Clinton in a one on one debate in September.. things will change drastically. Now that the DNC email leak is making the rounds of the main stream circuit, it’s obvious that there will be another major drop in Clinton’s numbers in the polls.

Clinton campaign is most definitely freaking out at this point, in an attempt to overshadow Clinton’s misuse of emails they choose Tim Kaine as VP who is supposedly strong on foreign affairs. Sanders supporters who Hillary needs to win this election are very skeptical of Kaine and his support for NAFTA, Trans-Pacific Partnership and his recent move for regulations on small sized banks.

Notice something about the last few polls?

The bigger the sample size, the better Trump does. Likely Voters - reliable voters - favor Trump.

The more Voters see of her, the less they like her.

Can she hide out in a discreet safe zone for a couple months? That's her only hope.

That and relying on the populace being gullible enough to eat up all the anti-Trump propaganda

Trump Takes Commanding Lead in LA Times/USC Poll

Donald Trump has taken a commanding lead over Hillary Clinton in the latest LA Times/USC Poll. The poll shows Trump leading with 45.1% to Hillary’s 41.7%.

Going into the Republican National Convention, Donald Trump had a very slim lead against Hillary Clinton in the same poll. It’s now clear that the Convention and the most recent WikiLeaks/DNC email scandal is helping Trump.

I'm waiting a few days to see where it settles. I'm not going to cherry pick right now (like you guys). But real politics still has the average of all the polls with Hillary ahead. This is good, but considering what a clown Trump is I'm not happy to see him even close.

What a basket case this country is.

I know you guys equate intelligence and good analysis with liberal bias, but this is the one to watch.

You should be celebrating that he (or they) has it down to only 58.3% chance that Hillary wins, and the dust hasn't settled from the RNC yet. These are probabilities, not poll numbers. A 58.3% probability of winning reflects a spread of only a couple points in the average polls.

If and when they have Trump ahead, you can imagine me being very disturbed.

Found an infographic that's going to get Hillary elected didjya?
Well you hang on to that.

AS expected. Okay don't listen to me. Go back to your cherry picking. We both know Trumps absolute peak may be happening right now on the heels of the RNC. So you should find the best polls you can right now and savor them, you know, just in case it's all down hill from here.

Funny look at those dates, Hillary was trouncing Trump until last week in every supposedly poll.
I guess now they are releaseing the real numbers and Hillary has always been sucking hind tit in this race.
Not that she would think anything was wrong with that.

It's called a convention bounce. It happens every Presidential election year. McCain pulled ahead of Obama in '08 after the RNC convention too.

Polls will start really mattering in another month.

6 Plain Reasons Why Trump Will Win:

1) White turnout is going to be historically high, driven in large part by A VERY PISSED OFF "REAGAN DEMOCRAT" COMPONENT, who view both Bill & Hillary Clinton as The Murderers of The American Middle Class Dream (NAFTA, GATT, TPP) - see this:

www.youtube.com/embed/wwmOkaKh3-s

2) Trump will get a much higher % of the women vote than is the common'wisdom assumption.

3) Trump will get a huge turnout from Pro-2nd Amendment/NRA voters.

4) Trump Will Capture YUUGE % of union member votes (despite union leaders endorsement of Billary).

5) LGBT issues have been taken too far in too aggressive a manner to not only piss off and energize evangelicals, but even moderate Americans, as well. Trump, while not broadcasting messaging against LGBT issues, is perceived as far more reserved (and even pro-states' rights) on this issue, while Shillary is (rightfully) perceived as 'Federal Government Is Going To Force Your Kid's School To Allow Adults With Penises To Be Able To Use The Girls Bathroom & Locker Room.'

6) "October Surprises" - Hitlery is already damaged goods because of Basement Server Classified e-mail Gate, and leaked DNC emails proving Bernie was sabotaged, but wait, there's more damaging stuff on the way, including more leaked emails and investigations that turn up highly damaging information regarding the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Slush fund-Foundation.

I ought to show that to my Bass player he isn't voting but believes every thing CNN says. .
I know it's just a meme but he wouldn't. He is the definition of low information. If I showed him that said I saw it on CNN last night. He would be convinced that CNN declared him the winner already.

this video from the comment above by freespeechforever really sums up the true cause of trump's support. brilliant!

But you set a high bar for an informed polity.

You can't expect everyone to know that Clinton ordered the killings at Ruby Ridge, or that Obama ordered the narrowing of airline seats.

Did you listen to the entire argument ?

Of course he's right about the big picture, of not chasing (only) economic growth. And automation is going to force us face up to some of these issues fairly soon anyway. But I think the trade deals are more complicated than most people realize. That is, I don't believe total economic isolation of the U.S. would be to the world's benefit or even our own. The deals we make in the interest of our country's participation in international trade do sometimes benefit our corporations at a cost to our workers. It sucks, but it may also be necessary.

Is anyone suggesting economic isolation?

I'm curious as to why you suggest that our politicians make trade deals that sacrifice our Labor class, for the benefit of the the Corporate Ownership class, out of necessity. Care to explain?

I would think that a government of the people would make trade deals that benefit The People. Out of necessity.

I wasn't suggesting the American labor getting screwed was anyone's intention. And I also wasn't advocating any specific deal past or present. SImply observing the obvious big picture.

WE as a country have argued and fought against communism and for global capitalism. Many of our corporations are multinational players in a global economy. IT isn't surprising that a natural effect of their growth and the continuing globalization is that cheap labor in other countries is taken advantage of by american corporations (including Trump in a huuuuge way). If we refused to have that occur, or insisted that it not occur this would mean essentially isolating ourselves, and allowing global competing corporations of other countries to take advantage of that labor to their competitive advantage in the global market place.

That should give you a hint as to what I was referring to. But it's not that simple. As things work now, at least iphones are made by an american company.

By the way, if you watch that video, a compelling argument is made that the offshoring of manufacturing was happening regardless of those trade deals. Those deals just tried to optimize trade to benefit american interests. Yes - american corporate interests.

IT's a global economy. It's not that hard to understand. WE have to find ways to do better for our workers. But preventing trade deals that our corporations think are good for them in terms of how they compete (IN THAT GLOBAL ECONOMY), is not the answer. At least I can't see how it is.

I think our focus should be on automation - because that wave is going to be upon us before long, and the potential displacement of labor that comes with that is far greater than the one that comes from manufacturing being offshored. Possibly the latter problem is a blessing, forcing us to face up to some needed pro worker related policies that are going to come from government investing in things like infrastructure, clean energy, and science and technology.

Trump ahead in Nevada

The June GQR Research poll sampled just 300 likely voters. It found Trump led, 47-45 percent over Clinton, with a 5.7 percent margin of error. Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson received 9 percent support when he is included, with Trump and Clinton receiving 44 percent each.

Nobody is seeking ecconomic issolation. Our trade deals are made by self serving politicians who are weaving their golden parachute. We make trade deals that are made and signed based on optimal conditions for a few potlicians and their fincial backers, that serves their best intersts but kicks the rest of us in the can.

Nobody is saying ecconomic issolation. Just getting a good deal, we never get a good deal. The Clintons got a good deal, GW Bush got a great deal, Cheny got excelent deals, every motherfucker in Congress got a cherry sweet heart of a deal, when they bailed out the banks that were too big to fail. They knew who were going to turn a 40% profit in three months, and invested accordingly. Had you and I done that, we would have been in prison for insider trading.

Absolutely correct! Being endorsed by criminals like Pelosi who made their fortunes with insider trading is a disgrace. Or isolating Russia which we could make excellent trade deals with to favor middle-eastern oil states is completely fucked up. That's where Trump's appeal comes in, people are starting to wake up that Russia is not the enemy anymore, and hasn't been in a long while. The enemy are globalists bailing out the 1% and legalizing insider trading for themselves while gladly laundering the money of terrorists.

Okay, well I said I would give it a few days after the DNC to update you, but here's an early example for you.

WE need a few days for the dust to settle after the DNC, but here's Nate Silvers "now cast" which had Trump ahead the other day:

I'm guessing by the middle of next week things will be back to where they were ? The only difference being that more and more of that small number of true independents are making up their minds as time goes by.
