Hillary Clinton regained a double-digit lead over likely general-election rival Donald Trump in a new poll released Friday.

I don’t usually say this about polls, as they are more often accurate than inaccurate, but this one is JUST TOO CONVENIENT.
You have the Republican Convention coming up and with it, the very last chance to get Trump off the ticket. If one want to create and ABSOLUTE PANIC among the GOPe (even more so than when Trump was leading) to kick Trump off the ballot, this is probably the best way. It’s a lot harder to make the claim that Trump has to go when he’s winning or at least close...but now you can at least give it a try.
It still would be stupid, because whoever they replace him with WILL GET TROUNCED, and beyond that, will destroy ELECTED REPUBLICANS down-ticket because Trump supporters simply will not vote for anyone with an R by their name if this happens.
I also have trouble believing this poll because there’s nothing new and bad regarding Trump. He got over the judge remarks just before the shooting and was within 5 points. About all that’s happened since is the shooting (Brexit was too recent)...and I can’t see why Trump would be hurt by that - his Muslim ban is popular in the country and gun control, when it comes to REAL VOTES is always a big loser in most parts of the country, which is why Hillary had to rename it as “Gun Safety Legislation”.
Sorry - this poll MAKES NO SENSE - treat it as an outlier, and with a clear objective (i.e., dumping Trump at the convention).
Me either, nor anyone I know..
Polls like tho are meant to get the Republican delegates nervous, and provide fuel for a nomination coup.
The GOPe was complicit in Soetoro’s reelection..
That's the reason. When she's out of sight the media gins up her popularity. When she opens her yap all hell occurs.
On that we all agree.
Links are a bunch of blather by leftist writers. Where is the actual poll? Didn’t the last RotorRooter poll have D50 R33 I17?
That sampling seems right. Hell, its the only to push criminal Hillary over the top..oversampling..
Cannot find party breakdown. What does, “right”, mean?
The word “Sandbagging” comes to mind!
I know we got clocked last election, but after the Brexit vote, polls where all over the place. If someone calls me for a poll, I’m sure as hell not giving them the truth as to how I’m voting. Screw them!
Earlier comment about 2012 vote shows sample wasn’t “right”
Before the Republican primary began, the polls had Jeb Bush easily winning the nomination.
Hahaha!!!
Yepper!! That’s what I’m saying.
I mentioned this a few days ago and I do believe many Americans will see the shooting in Orlando as “a male gun nut who hates gays.” They will not see it as a Muslim or maybe a gay doing the shooting because that would possibly make the voter think he or she is biased. We have three major problems in this country: pop culture, media and education and all three are forms of brainwashing.
Once again, criminals on TV whether in shows or even in ads are seemingly overwhelmingly white male. Take a look at home burglary ads, police dramas, etc. The cops are “diverse” but the criminals less so. And victims, well, you get the idea.
When people get their news from “The View” or late night TV comedy, it is often skewered.
We have an uphill climb.
People do not like Clinton. She is a homily witch but she is also offering more handouts than Trump and too many Americans have come to expect freebies rather than work for them.
If Clinton is elected president, then we should almost expect a liberal Latino or maybe even Michelle Obama as next president to send another message to the world.
It is sad. We can’t get deflated based on polls but nothing shocks me either anymore.
Polls are contrived to demoralize the Trump revolution. Don’t let them.
Where is the actual poll with PARTY BREAKDOWN? All I see so far is tall. P A R T Y BR E A K DOWN. If party breakdown is not listed in the internals. Tho poll should be ignored.

This is the MSM being complicit with the GOPe RINOs to try to knock Trump out of the race and replace him with a stoolie of their own at the GOP convention held in a few weeks. A last hard court press of lies. It’s what they do best. Don’t let them rile you all up. They’!! have to eat their polls after the GOP convention takes place. Trump will handle this in his own inimitable fashion.
