Follow the money. The RNC is collecting money from donations to Trump. The RNC was hurting for money until they made the deal with Trump.

Regardless of the outcome of the POTUS election.....I am changing my political affliation from Republican to Independent. If Donald J. Trump loses the POTUS election to Hillary Clinton (He Will Not Lose!!!), I will never vote for another Republican or Democrat for the rest of my life!!! I suspect millions of othe like minded Republicans will do exactly the same thing.

Trump is fighting Hilllary Clinton, The Democrat Establishment, The Republican Establishment, the Clinton/Obama, biased media, the social internet web, the corporates elites, the Wall street low lifes, etc., all trying to protect their criminal dynasty hold over the American people!!! Wake up, Americans....you are about to surrender your freedoms to “Big Brother”, etc.

You are right - the polls may affect the outcome, and I wonder if that was not what happened in 2012. But Romney - in very sharp contrast to Donald Trump - ran a low energy campaign. (Remember he took a holiday all August.)

And the huge rallies for Trump everywhere breaks through the media barrier. That is important. If that is followed by a massive deluge of ads at the right moment, then things can really start to happen.

Have some confidence in our nominee.

What amazes me is how Freepers are ready to abandon Trump at the slightest indication of trouble. They don’t give Trump any credit for what he has accomplished. They just throw him under the bus because things are getting tough.They are a pathetic bunch.

No offense

The LA Slimes owns this poll and controls its sample and final product folks .
If you trust the LA Slimes then good luck .

LA Slimes hates Trump.

LA Slimes is capable of any lie and fabrication .

I recall the story about the LA Slimes editor was caught by an outside group visiting the news room screaming for everyone to give all the dirt on Arnold S when he was running against Davis in the recall .

LA Slimes is never to be trusted .

I agree he does. The good thing is there are plenty of polls showing a high level of competitiveness in this race. There are polls that are purposely skewing the number of Democrats and independents to get a result favorable to Clinton but you are right Trump needs to unleash ad hell on Hillary and I do believe he is. He’s waiting for the right time and he may be right because he’s managed to whether an unbelievable number of ads from the primaries to now and still remaining competitive. He needs to remind people that he is the only one in the race that has built anything or accomplished anything in the private sector while Hillary has used her time in public service to enrich herself.
He needs to remind people that Hillary is the candidate who broke multiple federal laws and was treated special.
He needs to remind people what will happen with a super majority left wing supreme court which will give Clinton power like no President has seen before with their ability to rubberstamp her executive overreach. He also needs to spend a the bulk his ads reminding people of his positive America first agenda and he needs to run his ad plan from here to election day.

They only poll 400 of the 3000 so they could have hit a pocket with more hill supporters

Willfully giving your opponent a huge advantage for months on end is not something that should give anyone confidence. It’s an advantage she shouldn’t have - he’s chosen to give it to her. She’s even running ads nationwide during the Olympics without response - a combination of positive ads for herself and negative ads against him. With all of her scandals, his negatives and rate of trustworthiness actually poll lower than hers. That’s no small accomplishment - and he willfully chose to allow this to happen.

She was up 1 in this poll yesterday and now its +3 1/2. The gain was just over 2 points from yesterday. RCP is saying she’s +4 in this poll. Rounding 3 1/2 to 4.

Sorry you are apparently looking at this election through 2012 or older goggles. Trump is doing just fine. Thankfully, he doesn’t follow “election norms” & his support continues to swell. He will run ads when he deems fit & he will win. My confidence is in Trump, not arm chair quarterbacks.

Vote Trump 2016

DEM insiders are more worried than you. Trumps problem is that he is quarterbacking an offence of 11 against a defense of 1000s.

Lots of people, organizations and agendas worldwide will suffer he wins and Hillary doesnt. So there is a total take no prisoners strategy coming from abroad, the media, social media. MSM etc.

Trump supporters know that Trump is a very successful person and very intelligent and strategic thinker. I think he is saying what he is saying deliberately. Why I’m not sure but I have some thoughts.

1.To stay in the news and flush out all the bad actors that really dont care about the American people.

2.To wear down Hillary and her campaign and for mistakes to be made
.
3.He knows he has a very corrupt opponent with closets of skeletons.
4.He seems is with the media. He says things to get them to jump on ridiculous assumptions, then his surrogatges and spokes people go on shows and make fools of TV people such as Don Lemon.

The calls for him to get out are for 1 reason...
No one in the world, dependent on a Hillary presidency wants her on a debate stage with Trump

Trump debate skills are sharp from all his primary debates against skilled opponents. Hillary was against Bernie. nuff said.

Debates are game changers

I think the Hillary vs Trump title fight has already started and is in the early rounds.

Remember what Trump said...
if you have no way of winning by judges voting....you go for the knockout, where there is no doubt

No, but this poll did reflect a bounce and lead for Trump. Of all the polls, this is the one that concerns me

No
Political polling is pure propaganda in August meant to push a Lib media narrative .
Gallup stopped doing political polling because the did not trust their samples .
We are in an age of cell phone only households .
Who is left with a land line ?
A screwy sample .

So Rand corporation client is the LA Slimes .
the LA Slimes owns this poll.
The far far far left LA Slimes

They pay for .
They can change any sample or throw it out or change any criteria and no one would know unless someone puts them.

But you don’t know if behind the scenes the samples are adjusted or ignored by the LA Slimes newsroom lefties to sell a narrative .

Gallup stopped Politcial polling because the results were so off.

Good points.

1. Remember Brexit was guaranteed to fail.

2. The most ardent voters and supporters are on Trump’s side. Hillary’s had to pay people to shill for her. She won the primary through fraud and dirty tricks.
