Just a quick vanity posting here. The fiction that Trump is tanking is just that, fiction. There is a small but noticeable rise in Trump's support since the Orlando shooting. On June 11th the day of the shooting, Clinton held the following advantage over Trump 43.9 to 38.6 or 5.3 points. This was 4 days after she wrapped up the nomination and at the height of her bounce. Fast forward to today, 6/23 and we see the following Clinton lead 43.7 to 40.3 or 3.4 points. So Clinton is down .2 and Trump up 1.7 for a net gain of 1.9.

Now, this may appear to be a margin of error difference but it's not statistically speaking. There have been about 12 polls released in that time all of varying leads for Hillary so 1.9 is a trend not a deviation. The larger point is, Trump has had his worst 2 weeks since Wisconson, the media has assailed him, his party is trying to screw him, the narrative is he is broke and the campaign is on life support, but the fact is, Trump gained on Hillary in this time period. Hillary is in very very deep trouble. She's stuck at 44 and will probably not increase her position much. Trump beats her on the issues and Manafort and pals now have 5 months to make him acceptable to the general public. I have said that this is 1980 all over again and I have no reason to believe it won't be.

Note: Any Frrepers who can do graphics, a post of the chart in the link would be greatly appreciated.

He was kind of tanking before the shooting, down by 12 in some polls, but the shooting helped ALOT, i think, to the point where he is tied in a few polls!!!

And though I dont wish it, there WILL be more attacks before the election to seal his victory.

I was embarrassed to admit it, but I followed the HuffPo poll averages during the primaries. They were fairly accurate, and I found them helpful. They average all the polls, whereas RealClearPolitics is more selective.

She spiked due to clinching the nomination and he took a hit with Indies due to the Judge Curiel comments. But her bounce is over, he gained some due to the terror attack and Indies are basically stupid and rudderless so they’ve moved on to some other issue that is important to them.

Thank you for the heads up...after that speech today, the people are going to start to think...I have finally finished the book Clinton Cash, it is a hard book to read, because there are so many players in each division, and that is the way the Clintons have set it up...

I finally gave up and made a graph of what each one is doing, and who is paying off who, and who is buying what and what part of the money is going where and to whom and why and then there are the Senators and Representatives that are getting in some of the action, they pass the bills right? Right, so they have to be paid off...it’s a mess....

Huffpost pollster is the olde pollster.com. I’m truth, they are an excellent aggregator of polls. RCP is selective as you say. They both approximate tends. I think today RCP has Hildebeast up by 5.3.

“But her bounce is over,”

And now she’s taking heat for not having held a press conference for 200 days. Gutfeld just sand on #Outnumbered that she only goes up in the polls when she says off the airwaves. The more people don’t see her, the better they like her.

Hillary is not fit to be president. She took money directly from the Chinese in order to get her to capitulate in the WTO negotiations while she was negotiating as Secretary of State. She and the Chinese used Direct deposits into community property bank accounts accounts under the guise of worthless speeches by her impeached husband. China got big favors . One of his worthless speeches he had $750,000 direct deposit into their community property account during the negotiations!!

That’s interesting background info. I stopped using RCP because somehow or other their selectivity always resulted in more favorable averages for the Dems.

The chart is animated in a way I’m not familiar with, so I couldn’t post it, but I tried.
