Not so fast there, Mr. Trump. While the controversial TV personality and businessman in still leading the way, his lead is definitely narrowing. He’s dropped from 32 percent of the vote in August to 24 percent in this week’s polls. Could his dominance be waning?

CNN Poll having Trump at 32 was September 8. The poll from CNN/ORC in August also had him at 24. The CNN poll for Sep 8 has some demographic oddities in a spike among Independents and moderates vs the one before and after. I am amazed at how aroused commentators get when they think the see something that fits a narrative they want.

They use the poll that is the worst for Trump, and think folks won’t notice.

A number of polls are out, and they don’t try to address one that seems to reflect the main consensus, they choose the one most wildly negative to Trump. It isn’t even close to the others.

This is one reason why folks don’t respect or trust the media any longer. It’s just untruths, propaganda, and truths that go unreported.

Our media to day couldn’t be more dishonest. Pravda was never much worse than this, if ever.

Polls need to keep to the same methodology they started with to be used as benchmarks for the following polls. It's to understand true rises or falls. Yep, polls likes this start to smell.
