The gender gap stat is always misleading. When you drill into it, married women are a reliable republican voting block. It’s just that the leftists dominate among certain female subgroups, like the lesbians, minority women and feminists obsessed with killing babies.

Nonsense. Maybe you should be more "concerned" with poll fraud than validating it. Trump is up over thirty points about Hillary in reality.

30 points...and you called the comments the person you were responding to nonsense? Trump has allowed Hillary and the media to define him now for months with no attempt to define himself or offer a competing message to the voters who will decide the election. It is all Hillary - all of the time. So there is no way he's up by 30 points...indeed, it's a miracle he isn't down by 30 points given how little of a campaign he has waged so far.

Independents remain evenly divided, with one-third opting for Clinton and another third backing Trump. Clinton maintains her advantage over Trump among men — 43 percent to 41 percent — and boasts an 11-point lead among women: 45 percent to 34 percent.

I do not find this poll a credible extrapolation of the larger voting public. Clinton up by 2 among men is not credible, neither is Trump only down by 11 among women.

Shut up, troll. The polls have been outed as completely faked, tens of thousands of people turn out to see him every day, he's put out position papers on every relevant topic, and he's entirely consistent.

In contrast, Hillary can't fill a library and has branded herself as a total liar, under investigation, a thief, the destroyer of the Middle East, a creator of ISIS, incompetent and obviously seriously ill.

Get out of here, liar.

Trump not waging a campaign is what is most demoralizing...not polling numbers. The polling numbers are just a symptom of him not waging a campaign and allowing Hillary and the media free reign with no competing message. The people who will decide the election are not the people going to rallies or even watching them...it is the people who are reached at home. Hillary is the only voice reaching them at this point and has been the only voice reaching them for months. For example, right now, nationwide, many millions of Americans are watching the Olympics. The only candidate reaching voters with multiple ads promoting herself and blasting Trump is Hillary. This is the message they are seeing over and over again - and it is the only message. Those already committed to Trump are obviously going to be very demoralized wondering where their candidate is. And those passively watching will indeed have their perceptions affected of the candidates. Hence, this is why one poll after another shows that Hillary and the media have, despite all of Hillary’s scandals and criminal issues, managed to get Trump’s own negatives even higher than Hillary’s...that’s not small accomplishment...and Trump has just sat back and allowed it to happen - allowing his opponent a huge advantage in reaching people in their homes and he chooses not to do the same, and allowing others to define him and his message. Do you not see the problem with this?

Everything I have said is absolutely factual. Being childish and engaging in name calling doesn’t change the facts. If anyone is being dishonest it is you by taking what I said and removing it from the context to make me say something I did not say. Releasing “position papers” is not a tv media campaign to get around the media filter and to offer a competing message to Hillary in people’s homes. The things you said about Trump having a message is accurate. The things you said about Hillary is also accurate...but that message is not being shared in a tv media campaign, and thus Hillary is defining his message as well as her own - unimpeded. He has done absolutely nothing in this regard. That is an absolute fact. He is not running a TV media campaign. Hillary has gone unresponded to for months. She’s been advertising nationally now, for example, during the Olympics - ads praising herself and ads attacking Trump. Nothing from Trump offering an alternate message to these viewers. Same thing on the airwaves across the battleground states. That’s an absolute fact - and personal attacks, calling people trolls, liars, etc. doesn’t change that, and it’s never a good idea to give your opponent such a huge advantage in a campaign...even if you think you can still win later on. That’s like deliberately not putting defense against an opponent in a ball game and allowing them to score unimpeded for the first 3 quarters and say you’ll do something later to keep them from winning. Even though that might be possible, it’s just not something you should do...you should never take an opponent’s moves for granted.

Scum GOPe fragging Trump for months on end and campaigning for Hillary Rotten criminal isn’t most demoralizing? “Principled Conservatives” AWOL from the battlefield 80 before CINC Hillary and her SCOTUS picks become reality isn’t most demoralizing? There are A LOT of things more demoralizing than Trump’s campaign. That you focus your anger on him reveals your true agenda.

We need all hands on deck now. Conservatives stand and fight. Cry baby surrender monkeys and self interested careerists cut and run. The choice is yours, FRiend.

Your comments just prove the point all the more why Trump needs and has needed his own full blown media campaign to get around all of the other noise. Without it, his message does not reach the people it needs to reach - they hear - and only hear - what Hillary and her allies in the press want them to hear.

Trump could spend a billion dollars on media and he’d still have 99% of the media and Hillary’s $2 billion or whatever against him.

The far, far bigger problem is the GOPe fragging of Trump that gives license to GOP voters to not support Trump.

When the highest ranking Republican in the nation runs to the nearest liberal TV camera to call his party’s nominee the Grand Wizard of the KKK and worse it really won’t matter how much Trump spends on ads. Trump needs near every single Republican vote to beat Hillary and he isn’t getting them right now. Sadly, it seems the GOPe and GOP plantation “conservatives” prefer Hillary Clinton to Trump.

If Hillary was filling stadiums with tens of thousands of people, and Trump couldn’t fill a library, you’d be jumping up and down about how important it was. But when the opposite is true, month after month, and when polling agencies admit they are changing their algorithms to support Hillary, it means nothing to you.

I call you a troll because that is what you are. You are here to spread despair through lies, and characterize Trump as Hillary and Hillary as Trump. But in truth it is Hillary with nothing new, Hillary throwing money down the drain, Hillary who can’t even stand up two days in a row, Hillary who is crashing and burning. And you know it.

Get out.

I have no use for Frank *bad toupee* Luntz; yesterday I caught him on Fox [I know...I know...] and for the first time his gibberish made sense.

He was asked what DJT should do to close the gap; it amounted to five points: Don’t use *I* again [ say I am your voice]; announce a forensic audit of the Federal budget in first 100 days; return to his original themes; focus on wasteful Washington spending; don’t go off message; focus on accountability.

It all seemed spot on to me.

And when Paul Ryan runs to the nearest camera and calls Trump the Grand Wizard of the KKK again? Then what? A LOT of this is out of Trump’s hands now, unfortunately. The GOP has to decide if the want to win the White House. Apparently, they do not. Trump is the GOP nom, after all.

I claim no expertise. I only have my impressions based on observation, reading
journalists I have come to trust, and history.

To say Trump is not waging a campaign I take to mean he is not waging your kind of campaign:
the traditional one, using TV advertising as the primary megaphone.

True enough. But it worked for the primaries.

Trump's ground campaign is mightily impressive; even you must admit this. Two or three
big events per day, plus regular TV & radio interviews interspersed. The crowds are
enormous. Is this not a kind of poll?

Much of the Left is dispirited, and will stay home. She generates no enthusiasm, only
duty, which will translate into a depressed vote. This not yet taking into consideration
more damning info coming out on her.

The country's overall mood is a quest for change from the malaise. Certainly historical
after two terms of one party, although Bush 1 did prevail after 8 yrs of Reagan, but
Reagan was extremely popular to the end, unlike the Alinsky protege who has running
on 2 cylinders.

Trump will get 73 million votes to win big.

This is how I see it. Trump is the man of the hour, and more than 50% of the country knows it.

DJT must stay on message. It’s the only way. We can’t depend that the grim reaper will show up on clinton’s front porch.

Pajama boy reflects a certain non warrior look. What is in a picture? Looks can be deceiving. A certain 5’2” pajama looking boy was a guy named Roger W. Young. I’m sure 90% of you never heard of him.
