It would be nice to see a very gradual steady rise in Trump’s popularity.

What these early polls are doing is putting a lot of pressure on the DNC with regard to their hand picked candidate, the Hildabeast. Could they be pow-wowing in the back room looking for a way around her candidacy??

It is fascinating how quickly coverage shifted from "the fractured Republican Party" to "Dems in chaos."

The polls will embolden the Bernie crowd. She can't win!

Up until this point, once Trump had a supporter, that supporter could not be moved. Incredibly loyal base of support. I'm wondering if that will continue with "late deciders."

In my heart, I just can't imagine someone who is not already a braindead Clinton voter waking up one morning and thinking, "Well, today's the day I decide to vote for the Hildebeast."

Agree, a slower, steady rise would be "nicer" to see at least IMO. The way interest peaked and waned with different candidates during the early primaries pointed to a lot of volatility on the Republican side. Granted, 16-17 candidates will do that.

The other side of the coin is with Trump building momentum this quickly, eventually the other side gets "worn down" and the "may as well vote for the winner" factor starts kicking in. That could happen too I suppose.

I also agree: this has to be putting a TON of pressure on the Democrats to toss Shrillary overboard and go with someone else (Biden/Sanders?) That would simply reek of desperation on their part. Biden entering the race would turn this into a fight though. Uncle Joe may not have command of the facts (he rarely does...) but the Dem's like it that he fights back and that's what they want too.

We live in interesting times.
