Trumps increased lead is the result of Clinton’s numbers dropping rather than Trumps increasing.
I believe the last ras poll had it 42 -40 for Trump. His entire 3 point gain is due to Clinton losing the 3 from her support.
I’ve said this for a long long long time.. Hillary has NO chance in the general.. its not going to be close... the absolute BEST case scenario for her is about 15 states and 180 EC votes..... More realistic is she probably won’t get 10 states and around 125ish EC votes.
The worst case scenario for Trump is a solid win with about 35 states and 350 EC votes.... That’s the absolute worst case for him. More realistically he’ll be over 40 states and over 400 EC votes.
The sooner this becomes obvious, the sooner Trump can start working on helping the down ticket races, so we can expand majorities in the house and senate, and other down ticket races.
The Dems are heading to a shellacing, up and down the ticket.
Now understand there will be a few ups and downs between now and NOV... just like there were bumps in the primary race, and every little bump the press will try to play as the end of the world, but it won’t be.
