epublican Donald Trump's poll numbers have been rising since the shooting attack on an Orlando gay nightclub that left 49 people dead, according to Reuters' daily tracking poll.
Trump, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, had been on a downward trend against Democrat Hillary Clinton over the last week, and an NBC News/SurveyMonkey poll released Tuesday reflected that with Clinton boasting a seven-point lead.
Trump's numbers in the NBC poll reflect the struggles he had last week after he slammed the judge presiding over the Trump University civil lawsuit, saying he can't be fair because of his Mexican heritage, Mediaite notes.
But the NBC poll was taken before Sunday's shooting. The Reuter's daily tracking poll shows Trump rebounding after he began vowing to fight radical Islamic terrorists and attacking what he called the Obama administration's weak efforts on the issue.

I noticed she’s been excluded from the Fox ‘all-stars’ (all losers, more like it) at 6pm. Monica Crowley was invited yesterday to take up the Trump cudgels (I guess they need to do it once a year) and she was excellent. Lady-disliker, Charles Krauthammer, stared at her balefully.
She’s now happily talking about his poll numbers because he didn’t follow her brilliant advice!
Was it Linda Tripp who said ‘eight years for him, eight years for her; that’s the plan’?
Probably. They may get it from foolish Americans.
Obama did himself no favors with his tantrum.
Obama/Hillary: Trump is the problem, not evil terrorist murderers. American people: We know what the problem is and Donald Trump is not it.
I turned her off. Anyone who consides Bill Kristol “a friend” is a basically sick individual.
Yes, Krauthammer could haunt a house. When I look at him I’m reminded of Leon Klinghoffer of Achille Lauro fame.
You’d never know it by most news including Fox News.
She’s usually on his side. I’m kinda surprised hearing this. It does seem trump against the world though.
Get on a supporting campaign org. They will have the information for what to do.
She seems to think if Trump listened very closely to her, everything would be fine. She’s like a lot of people in politics: an expert on everything.
Thank you.
I’ll start taking polls seriously after the two conventions.
LOL! Mean but priceless!
Didn’t Laura get her start as part of that Dartmouth Review crowd with Dinesh D’Souza? They leaned neocon even back then, and D’Souza made a name for himself by wrecking the career of the great Sam Francis. Francis dared speak of American ethnicity and culture and this outrages a Proposition Nation neocon like D’Souza.
Yes, she was, but I think a lot of us were neocons then. Sad to say.
One thing that has always bothered me about Laura. It was Nat Hentoff who brought her plight at Dartmouth to the attention of the country with many columns in the VV. But she never, ever has him on as a guest. That pisses me off bigtime.
Did your sourdough finally work out?
It worked out so well! It looked like a bakery loaf (although ball-shaped) with a great crust and a very sourdough taste. I was impressed. That King Arthur starter worked wonders. It’s now sitting in the fridge for next week.
Thank you for asking.
If I was more ambitious I’d be making some, too. I buy a cracked wheat sourdough loaf from Sprouts to feed my sourdough addiction.
