BT, I read your posts suggesting that the strong opposition to Trump in votes cast showed how he was really unpopular.

My take is a bit different. Considering he started his campaign with 5% of the Gop liking him in the polls, he has changed the minds of a huge amount of people (including me ). He polls consistently above 40% now.

When he officially wins, it will likely start again closer to 60%, and I would be surprised if that didn’t grow to over 95% by October.

Considering he is hated by the democrat media AND the gope media, that is an almost miraculous climb in the polls.

He is well liked by independents and Reagan democrats. If you add in to the mix just how awful a candidate hillary is, he could literally come from 5% of republican voters to one of the biggest blow outs in a century, and this in the face of unprecedented negativity from his own party.

That he’s polling so well in spite of what’s been thrown at him to date is near miraculous.

You’re correct on all points.
