Donald Trump Polling Ahead of Clinton – But Did He Really Get Polling Bounce?…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 7/26/2016 | Sundance

...Does it really make sense that Donald Trump jumped that far (10 to 12 points) from a convention bounce? Of course not.

The reality is, Clinton was NEVER ahead, and the race is not even close now...

You see, the reality is folks – this race is not close. This race is not even in the same city where the close ballpark is located.

Look at the Philly Convention. Do you notice how the entire venue is optically different from the GOP convention by intentional design?

In Cleveland the delegates were all on the floor of the event venue. The thousands of seats circling the floor were for visitors, spectators, guests and people who were not part of the official delegation business.

Now go look at Philadelphia. There’s only a few delegates on the floor, the remaining number of delegates are in the venue auditorium seating. Optics. Gotta keep the optics. The optics of interest – because there ain’t none.

It’s absolutely true. He says he knows too many people that have been ruined because of e-mail.

Maybe he did; maybe he didn’t; maybe it is the result of the pollsters now knows they have been exposed as cheaters and are behaving.

I just don’t want to see overconfidence on our part...


Exactly right. We must get out the vote to overcome their voter fraud.

I hope Trump makes an issue of voter fraud soon.

candidates usually get a ‘bounce’ after the RNC as people learn who they are.

Trump has been in the public awareness since the 80s. very few don’t know the name

Pence would’ve seen a bump, as he’s fairly unknown nationally

Two things favor Trump: the “enthusiasm gap’ & the ‘Bradley effect”. Trump’s voters are pumped & many Trump voters are lying or not answering the polls about who they are going to vote for.

If you watch CNN you’d think Jesus has been resurrected for a second time. They don’t call it the Clinton News Network for nothing.

Trump plays to win and the last two elections were Rinos.

Seriously! A week ago Clinton was up 12 points and now Trump is up 3-5 points that is a 15-17 point bounce. Where have you been?

Convention Bounce: “Change in poll numbers after a week of the media demeaning the GOP and then a week of the media extolling the DNC.”

I think most people get their info on the conventions second-hand from the media. Though Trump does better than I’ve ever seen at getting around them.

Exactly - I spoke to my 80+ year old aunt yesterday and she is a die hard establishment republican that has been a delegate in MI many times. I was shocked to hear her diss the establishment and completely pro Trump. However, she did add that she can’t admit this verbally to her republican friends.

I think that there are a LOT of people out there like your aunt.

My mother (78) is similar. Not a politically active person like your aunt, but she keeps up with it every day. She’s in an independent living facility where at least half of the people are big libs, and she has to bite her tongue a lot. Still, if someone says something really outrageous, she’s there to correct them. I think that a lot of the folks there have been influenced by her words, but they just won’t say anything. Oh, but when they get into the voting booth....
