Trump nearly ties with former presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the poll, with 37 percent saying they would vote for Trump, and 38 percent picking Sanders.

Re: “That's right...early polls are always right. Trump is toast. Go back to June 2015.”

June 2015 was the first time ANY national poll tracked Donald Trump.

By July 2015, Trump had passed Bush and taken the lead.

Trump has been polled for 3.5 years now, and his two most recent polls show just 37% against Beto and Bernie.

Creepy Uncle Joe, an old white man, will not be the nominee. They will nominate a young photogenic minority.

Re: “None of the polls said Trump would win in 2016.”

I wrote a detailed Comment on that claim in November 2016.

From memory...

There were 11 national polls taken on the weekend before the election.

Two polls showed Trump winning.

Nine polls showed showed a tie or Hillary winning.

Seven of the eleven polls were within the margin error.

The two polls that showed Trump winning were actually outside the margin of error.

the #metoo jihadists would burn the party to the ground if someone dropped a porn bomb on her.

Ha! They will twist themselves into pretzels finding ways to excuse her.

“Pretty sure the oppo research file is quite thick.”

He would be 79 years old in his first year as President. I think that would be a record.

No one could have beat Trump in 2016; he had already proven he could produce and there was nobody else out there that could say that.

Is there anything more worthless than polls like this two years before the election?

Biden had 2 brain surgeries and has probably lost more gray matter than the average man of his age, and Sanders will be, like, 1000 years old in 2020.

My guess is that neither one will run.

But then there is Hillary...

Very astute observation. That the national DNC allowed CA to do this tips its hat that it is not opposed to Kamala. The DNC under Wasserman-Hillary would never have allowed CA to make that move.

If Biden got the Dem nomination, chose Obama as VP, won the election, and then resigned, would O become POTUS?

Obama is Constitutionally ineligible to serve a third term. He could not run as a candidate for VP, according to the 12th Amendment:

“But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”

But, as we all know, the Constitution doesn’t apply to Obama.

Thanks. I don't think the 12th amendment prohibits anybody Running for VP, but such a person would be ineligible to be VP.
