New National Poll Tells Different Story Than Media Narrative
Western Journalism ^ | 8/26/2016 | Jack Davis

Posted on 08/26/2016 5:04:15 PM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

A new poll shows Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump leading Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

The USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times Daybreak tracking poll, which tracks Americans’ support for the presidential candidates on a daily basis, showed Trump leading Clinton 44.3 percent to 43.6 percent as of Friday.

The poll, which unlike other polls tracks the same population over time, represents a significant comeback for Trump, who as of Aug. 14 was trailing Clinton 46.3 percent to 41.6 percent.

Well, from everything I’ve heard, the election has been held, Hillary won easily, and Trump is currently wasting his time on all of this stupid “campaigning” stuff.

From the article:: “Further, the poll showed that Trump is now supported by 84 percent of Republican voters, up from 75 percent. Trump is changing voter attitudes one by one, as shown by two Minnesota Republicans who were admittedly cold to the party’s nominee before a recent fund-raiser in Minneapolis. “When we were going through the photo line, I did not expect to be impressed with him,” said Janet Beihoffer, a national committeewoman for the Minnesota Republican Party. However, meeting Trump in person changed her mind.”

The propaganda press completely missed Trump winning the Republican presidential nomination. The scurrilous media rats still haven’t offered an explanation on why they blew it.

I smell a complete Hillary squishing by the voters.

You might be right.
But remember, Democrats typically don’t care about the candidate, they vote for the program. Hillary while an unappealing and inept candidate still represents what they desire.

Abortion
Welfare
Unions
Crony capitalism
Gay and racial preference
etc

Does anyone know how much Trump is spending on ads in various states? Seems very little TV ads compared to Hillary.

Watch. After the labor day holiday it will heat up more and Trump pulls away.

Think of the collateral damage from a Hillary loss?

The royal carpet washer, latte' runner, about 60 pilots and crews, catheter washer, bourbon pourer, foot massagers, limo drivers, crack scrubbers, fashion designers, keeper of who dies next lists, email scrubbers, amorphous book keepers, drool wipers, video blamers, surplus arms for cash dealers, hookers who spawned Bill's kids, wet cigar tasters, dress hiders, grand juries, video sex partners for Huma's Weiner, entire Mezvinsky family, Lizard men, and armies of Cheryl Mills types, will all have to find something more productive to do? At a lower wage.

Your absolutely right. I go back to a poll that was done a couple months

back showing over 50% of dem voters would vote for hillary even if she

were indicted. These people have no moral compass. These people

would literally vote for hitler if he were a democrat.

Independents have consistently tracked with pro Trump Republicans. They are not breaking for Hillary at all. The more truth that comes out about Hillary, the more she alienates the independents who were never big fans to begin with.

“You might be right. But remember, Democrats typically don’t care about the candidate, they vote for the program. Hillary while an unappealing and inept candidate still represents what they desire.”

I’ll repeat what you said: You may be right. OTOH, all the gibmedats, welfare mommas and crony capitalists were crushed in the 2014 election, resulting in the Republicans completely controlling 26 states. I know that a Republican sweep is not representative of conservative ideals, but the voters hoped that they were voting for conservatives. So the sentiment was there.

We’re heading for an election where the old rules and formulas don’t apply. The 2014 election was a precursor of a new and unknown election result.

What’s your opinion?

They absolutely would vote for Hitler if he had a (D) behind his name. It amazes me how Democrat voters think that party is for the “little guy.” One of the biggest myths there is.

I think Hillary wins.

Obama won in 2012 running on a record of 8% unemployment (13% actual), surging food prices, trillion dollar deficits, $4 gasoline, Obamacare and Benghazi.

I think after November, most of our discussions on FR will be about God, gold, guns, and guts. But my predicting record is poor, I said there was no way Obama could win on that record in 2012. I’m now convinced between demographics and voter fraud we don’t have a chance in national elections.

Why don’t you just leave this forum then and go to your safe space. The rest of us will fight the good fight.

There’s no use in discussing anything with you because you’ve surrendered. Bye.

August 4th I went to a Jeff Dunham show with my daughter at the Ohio State Fair. It was a large venue and packed. Jeff came out and said he was doing an informal poll. He asked who people were voting for. Hillary got some applause. Trump applause was so loud I thought the roof was coming off the place. Dunham then said “The only conclusion anyone could draw from the poll was that Hillary Clinton voters don’t like ventriloquists.”
