Iowa State Fair poll:

Yesterday my IT shop took me to my BD lunch.
The CIO who just this past March during the early Primaries, when Hillary was still running around the country in media silence securing delegates votes. And Trump hadn't shined the Roach spot light on her yet. He said during a trip in March, Trump may win the Primaries, but Hillary will be the next President. I said what do you mean, and read off the laundry list of charges that those of us, who don't follow CNN and Huffingshit knows as common knowledge. He just laughed and shrugged it off like it was tinfoil hat conspiracy theory talk, and I invented it my self. He hadn't heard no such news. He said even if those allegations were true, he's a lifelong Democrat and would be voting for her. That was March!
Now yesterday during lunch, he was the piping up about how we're screwed with the two choices but he was most terrified of Hillary. He said no way no how should that maniac ever be President.

Then the project manager said... "Did you hear her in that speech She gave, she said she promises to raise taxes on the middle class."

And here I thought Breitbart wasnt' reaching anybody. I know they didn't get all of these "lies" from CNN.

Latest LA Times poll.... Trumps winning :)

Somehow I knew Hillary couldn't keep it up.

trump has run virtually no ads and we havent even started the debates.

secondly most of the polls are bullshit numbers.

Trump now up 2%.

Trump up by 5% in PA now:

TRUMP LEADS CLINTON by 5+ POINTS in the KEY BATTLEGROUND STATE of PENNSYLVANIA

Trump leads Clinton 41.9 percent to 36.5 percent, with 21.5 percent voters undecided. Trump’s lead is just inside the margin of error and marks the first time that the Republican candidate is catching up in the traditional stronghold state of the democratic party.

Hang in there, mate. At least you've found the one that says what you want it to say. Squeeze that puppy like your life depended on it.

joshuatrio says

Uhhhh, I got my poll from the LA Times... Looks like you got yours from Nate Silver?.

No I read the part that where the LA times explains how the poll is conducted and what it means. The link is right there on the LA times page you posted. You didn't see it? No interest in what it means or why?

That LA times poll has always been skewed towards Trump, compared to all the dozen or so other major polls.

Here is Real CLear politics average of polls. It is moving a little in Trumps direction. For a few days he didn't say anything too stupid, and he even apologized for being such an asshole the other day. That should help him some.

Hillary only wins this election by the flip of a switch. And a executing a few lines of code.
That is the only way.

Why ? Is it because you are the only person that exists ? The rest of us are just something you are imagining ? You think we are so far down the rabbit hole that all the polls are all fake ?

Like you, I assume others are like me, which is why I don't see how anyone thinks Trump could possibly win.

Never in our history has there been a republican candidate so widely disliked by his own party. Sure 40% or whatever of the republicans are wildly rabbid Trump fans. But about twenty percent of republicans say they can not vote for him. This is unheard of. PEople are trying to figure out whether republicans can even hold a majority in congress because of the number of republicans that are just turned off by this election.

You assume that it's normal to like bullshit lies as much as you do, as long as it argues in the direction of making the case you want to make. A lot of people don't operate that way. I think too many years of Fox news, talk radio, and now Brietbart have totally destroyed any potential you might have once had for critical thinking.

Lindsay Graham famously said, "If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed.......and we will deserve it."

What's the matter, Barnyard Bobby??

Getting nervous that your Queen won't make the cut after your first choice, Bail-out Bernie, went full Establishment??

After all the times have I posted against Hillary and you still can't comprehend it? Just goes to prove once again that you can't cure stupid. Still grumpy that sis isn't letting you get any I see, the sheep are going to have a rough night again.

Stumped by Trump’s success? Take a drive outside US cities

If you drive anywhere in Pennsylvania, from the turnpike to the old US routes to the dirt roads connecting small towns like Hooversville with “bigger” small towns like Somerset, you might conclude that Donald Trump is ahead in this state by double digits.

Large signs, small signs, homemade signs, signs that wrap around barns, signs that go from one end of a fence to another dot the landscape with such frequency that, if you were playing the old-fashioned road-trip game of counting cows, you would hit 100 in just one small town like this one.

In Ruffsdale, I am pretty sure I saw more than 100 Trump signs.

It’s as if people here have not turned on the television to hear pundits drone on and on about how badly Trump is losing in Pennsylvania.

It’s not just visual: In interview after interview in all corners of the state, I’ve found that Trump’s support across the ideological spectrum remains strong. Democrats, Republicans, independents, people who have not voted in presidential elections for years — they have not wavered in their support.

These Trump supporters are not the kind you find on Twitter saying dumb or racist things; many of them don’t have the time or the patience to engage in social media because they are too busy working and living life in real time.

New CNN/ORC Arizona poll:
Trump: 43%
Clinton: 38%
Johnson: 12%
Stein: 4%

Meanwhile, in Florida:

And that impresses you how?

She's Found On Road Dead that's how.
It's quite genius.

If Johnson was really at 12%, and it wasn't the Media Hoax it is, it would be a helluva story and he would be on TV/Radio a whole lot more than he is.

Hell, Stein is polling higher than most third party presidential candidates do.

I'd bet that about 80% of that 16% is just the Geez, I can't stand Hillary or Trump, and their voting preferences will change dramatically when they enter the voting booth. In fact, most of those Johnson voters are just bitter #NeverTrump GOPers. In the booth, they'll consider how many Supremes Hillary will likely appoint, hike up their girdles, and vote Trump.

I can't stand Hillary or Trump

You leg hump Trump 24/7. You haven't made one negative statement about him unconditioned by Clinton. Without Clinton you have no opinion. If you can't stand him tell us why. Oh, don't bother. We who dislike Clinton can talk about her flaws all day....and have. You, qua Trump, on the other hand...

Once upon a time I disliked both. I knew little of Trump's policies, only knew him as a bigmouth billionaire with romance drama. I hate Clinton and always have, for being a complete Corporate Whore. I started a thread about her long, long before the Campaign Season began. When I expected Romney to run again, or Jeb to be her primary opponent. In such a case I would have stayed home.

However, the more I heard from Trump, his anti-"Free" Trade, pro-All-American-Historical Tariff of two centuries, and anti-mass immigration policies, it's natural that I support the only candidate I've ever had the chance to vote for that endorses these policies. I was under 18 when Perot ran. You may have noticed that all major Democratic and Republican Presidential candidates in the past few elections have supported more H-1Bs and continuing the disastrous Globaloney (It's A Small World Sentiment cloaking Brutal Labor Crushing by Corporations that Marx famously identified as the "Reserve Army of Labor", kept by Capital to disempower Workers) of the post-Golden Age. As has leading third party candidates from the Libertarian Party.

I jerked off when Trump bashed the fuck out of neocon Jeb.

So now I see Trump is a godsend. If he does 10% of what he says it will be great progress. His anti-SJW, anti-ISIS and anti-Islamic Terrorism, and his tougher-with-NATO stances are icing on the cake.

This should be no surprise on my posting history going back years.

The only valid reason I hear from Hillary voters is "TRUMPLER! DRUMPF! HITLER! PUTIN! PUTLER! RACIST, SEXIST, HOMOPHOBIC!" SJW/Russophobic McCarthyism.

. We who dislike Clinton can talk about her flaws all day....and have.

Trump just getting elected will do that.

Pissing off the people that have a clue would be awesome, am I right ?

thunderlips11 says

can't stand...Trump

Honestly, I don't know why I thought you might, but you never even tried. Came too soon, I guess. You're starting to sound just like him lately, flip flopping around. Can't stand him but think he's a godsend. Claiming the value of labor needs protection from elites and then trumpeting (get it?) the most elitist, cronied, capital-class, bitch-boy the pampered Western world has ever seen.

Perot was right, you know, about that suckin' sound, even though he would have been a lousy president. You would be a better president than the orange douchebag. errc's neighbor's dog would be as well.

Fuck the neighbor, he's a cat person. Now, gimme a hot dog!

Hmmm, I bothered to give you a reply about my past and current thinking, including his platform which holds things I agree with and have long since before he started running last summer..

Perhaps you'll honor this thread by giving a similar reasoning about of why you'll vote for Hillary, without mentioning Trump at all.

The one he's been talking about for decades... the anti-One-Sided Trade Deals.

Given I my important issues are: Ending one-sided "Free" Trade, want Assange and Manning freed, the Patriot Act rolled back (about 5% of warantless wiretaps involve Terrorism, it's now used mostly for the Drug War exactly as predicted by detractors), Reducing Immigration from it's all time high, Detente with Russia, and keeping Radical Religious Believers out of the USA, why should I vote for her?

FIFY...

Funny to hear Shillary supporters accusing Trump of flip-flopping, or "changing platforms". That's gotta be the peak denial.

There's obviously a difference between shifting positions over an extended period and doing it from day-to-day.
