Cam someone explain to me how Trump and Hillary can be neck and neck in the polls when Trump draws huge crowds and Hillary doesn’t?

Nobody knows, for sure. Likely a combination of factors, one of which is that the race might actually be close. You will never go wrong in underestimating the intelligence and morals of the public at large.

The factors that come to mind:

CNN playing a clip of Pence being confronted on this issue. he does a good job. Lets the mother vent at him, and then says that Trump has more respect for the armed forces than anybody (certainly more than Hillary).

Following that snippet on CNN, Karen Meredith, a Gold Star mom (and likely DEM), repeats the lie that Trump has denigrated the troops. Their arguments would be much better if they didn't rely on lies to frame the issue.

Uh, the same way that Bernie was winning states and HRC was getting more delegates.

I did ‘love’ the one state that Bernie & H were ‘tied’ in 9 or 10 different wards(??) and SHE won ‘all of them’ in ‘secret’ votes.

Back in the day these slugs at least tried to hide all this BS, today they are doing it openly and getting cheered for it.

One thing I have been thinking of is the “enthusiasm gap”. Obviously, one side has it more than the other and it can be seen in turnout at rallies and excitement.

Then there are the polls showing a close race. ?? Maybe people will vote one way but not show it in terms of enthusiasm and turn out. But this is in sharp contrast to the primaries where you saw a lot of turnout and excitement for Trump, Sanders, Carson, Cruz......even Carly. I do think that the polls are under sampling reps to get a desired result.

We will see if this holds up going the next 3 months. My gut tells me it won’t.

Well, I don’t know if this is correct, but I think it’s just the math.

From my perspective, Hitlery has an automatic 35 - 40% lead going in, maybe higher. There so much of the population that wants the D’s in power so their handouts will continue. They’d vote for ANYONE, regardless of how corrupt they are, because they’ll get what they want. Between welfare, abortion, illegal immigration, etc., they will vote D no matter what.

If everyone was actually informed and looking at both candidates with open minds, the race would be completely different.
