I agree, and the fact he is attracting disenfranchised voters, means most polls are not going to capture this support, as they use questions like did you vote in the last election? In order to determine if the voter is likely to vote... Reverse Bradley effect is at play with Trump too... where folks will not admit they plan to vote for him, but will on election day.. he always polls stronger in online polling where respondent believes they are anonymous than on traditional phone polling.

My guess is that a GOOD poll, with solid internals etc... Trump is probably running 3-5 points higher than the polls report.

Trump hasn’t had the best week, he’s probably seem some softening of support among the fringes, but these polls showing 10 or 15 point swings are ludicrous. Just like the poll showing Clinton up in GA... laughable folks.

3 months until election day... I have no doubt Trump is taking this thing big.

And the soft fringe will vacillate from now til Election Day. If they haven’t made a choice yet, they are squishes.

Trump just has to be more likable than Hillary. Not a tall order. Some of the squishies will stay home, replaced by older white males coming out of the woodwork.

I’m telling you. I never knew there were so many people that had long since given up on voting. I meet a lot of them. ALL in for Trump, and MOTIVATED.
