LA Times Tracking Poll: Trump Captures Six Point Swing, Leads Clinton by Three

Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton by roughly three points in the latest USC Dornsife/LA Times Presidential Election Daybreak poll. Trump earns 45. 1 percent support in the poll, while Clinton is at 42.3 percent.

According to the poll two weeks ago, Trump was behind Clinton by three points, 45.5 percent to 42.1 percent.

WE now know why Crooked Hillary played the race card last week in Reno. They knew the polls are collapsing. The steepness of the decline should be a healthy worry for the Clint camp. The email scandal which keeps on giving, being a lousy person and worst candidate are behind the decline. Hillary can't hide for two months with poll number like this.

[mad_as_he$$]

Looks like pay to play is getting legs.

[freepertoo]

yet the media still insists it’s impossible for him to win. Un-bloody-believable.

[so_real]

I've been expecting Clinton to leave the race "for health reasons" for months, and the media has been entirely groomed for that eventuality. The only question is ... who will be the knight in shining armor to rush in and replace Clinton to save the democrats' day. Will Bill Clinton jump in? Will Obama trample the Constitution again for a third term? Stock up on the popcorn ...

Ha, just in time for my morning coffee and a hearty Bwahahahahahaha!

If this keeps up, she’s gonna have to campaign to firm up her numbers. Which she can’t do because she’s got one foot in the grave. Catch 22.

The epithet I saw today really works:

Hillary Rotten Clinton

[IVAXMAN]

What I thought was amazing in this poll was that ETHNICITY OTHER went up from 38% to 58& in the last week.

[treetopsandroofs]

“Will Bill Clinton jump in?”

I assume that was rhetorical.

My personal theoretical possibilities:

Plagiarist Biden is the only recognizable name, but general election ballot changes get more problematic to make in time by the day;

Some Hussein-created disaster or false flag attack so all his racist freak worshippers march on DC and demand he stay “for a while”;

Massive, massive voter fraud, assisted by Hussein’s BFF’s in Russia who he pretends to hate and/or with help by the UN and of course the hated-when-a-Republican-is-president Diebold.

None of it will matter. NONE of it. People will still vote for her.

[going hot]

That woman is simply disliked

Her claim on the presidency is carpetbagging the NY senate seat writ large.

The actuality of her and her grifter family is increasingly difficult to hide, even by the well oiled multimedia.

In the age of instant news and information at the tips of the fingers, literally, her criminality, and that of the Dems in general is no longer easy to cover and misrepresent.

This is the hildabeast’s dream! She will only drop out if she collapses and dies on the debate stage! She will NEVER quit. Don’t kid yourself.

[stars & stripes forever]

It’s not over until the fat lady sings, but it looks like the finale is playing.

TRUMP/PENCE 2016

[SamAdams76]

Our national media is making a mockery of our First Amendment which calls for a "free press." They have abandoned their journalistic principles as well as all pretenses of objectivity.

They are so in the tank for the Clinton campaign that if they are not being compensated for their work as campaign staffers, they may have a good case filing a grievance with the National Labor Relations Board!

They (the media) have unleashed a one-sided smear campaign against the challenger (Donald Trump) that is utterly unprecedented in American history.

Despite all this, Donald Trump is STILL at worst tied or within striking distance.

By rights, Trump should be 30+ points ahead of this wicked witch. But even in decline, the power of the media is still such that they have made this a fairly close race.

A Trump victory this November will be a crushing blow to the biased media and this nation will be much better off for it. Perhaps then we will see journalistic principles return to the media once again.

Here's the problem for Hillary's speech from last week: it made her sound like an Art Bell conspiracy theory nutcase (and I'm being kind saying that). That does not sit well with the vast majority of American voters. The way InfoWar.com's Stephen Joseph Watson BRILLIANTLY ripped that speech to a zillion pieces with his YouTube video shows how misguided Hillary's speech was in the first place.

[stonehouse01]

“...None of it will matter. NONE of it....”

It IS starting to matter though. Less and less people will “still” vote for her; more are deciding not to.

“Perhaps then we will see journalistic principles return to the media once again.”

That will happen just after huge flocks of flying pigs block the noonday sun.

We need to be a little careful reading too much into changes plus or minus in the USC poll. Although the trend for Hillary is generally down and is generally up for Trump I'm still not quite ready to say that the End is Near for Hillary.

But the trend is encouraging. I count 7 UP Days for Hillary and 11 UP Days for Trump for the full month. If we start from the first UP Day for Trump the count is Trump 12 and Hillary 5. I'll take that.

Here is a snip of the poll for the last 30 days. It should be clear from this that the trend favors Trump despite the ups and downs.

B-b-b-but, she’s pulling ads out of Virginia and Colorado because she has too big a lead!
