But he said Hillary is ahead in so many battleground states

some of that is based on historical vote patterns since there is little to no useful polling in a few of them...not saying that’s not an important consideration because it certainly is, but some of it’s not based on current polling...

my personal view is that polling is in a very lazy place right now, just prior to the switch being thrown after Labor Day, and reading too much into it is counterproductive; suffice it to say, Trump has a large hill to climb, and a number of states have to reverse several election cycle patterns for him to prevail...

“Hillary up 99.9% to .01%”

The lies of the evilstream misleadia are almost that extreme. They are totally in the tank for Rotten Cankles, as they now admit.

Exactly. Johnson Lib is a halfway house for hidden Trump voters. More than half will pull the lever for Trump in Nov.

“There may be immediately impeachment plans, marches and demonstrations.”

Maybe those things should be suppressed.

Hillary is pampered alright. She also wears Pampers. The long commie jackets are to cover up the Pamper bulge lines.

Factoring the Rasmussen margin favoring Hillary, I’d say Trump is doing well.

I haven’t noticed that. In fact got so disgusted with them I rarely read them now although I haven’t unsubscribed. They are NOT in Trump’s corner in any way, shape, or form. IMO

You are not kidding! I have given up on FNC except for FNF’s for 30 mins in morning for headlines and Hannity when I can stomach him.

Their 6:00pm newscast has turned into a PMSNBC like event with the Trump bashing and wailing. The five morons, that prissy little twerp Shep having an estrogen induced melt down, just sick of FNC. I will watch some of their Saturday morning business shows but even it wreaks of GOPE and the RINO crap fest.

If it isn’t Judge J, Varney or Dobbs FNC is turning out to be just like the Republicans, they talk a good game but when the crap hits the fan, they swerve hard LEFT.

We don’t need a “right wing” pollster any more than a left wing, etc. The point is, are they scientific and reliable?

“His science has a reliable track record.”

He was amazingly wrong about Trump in the primary.

What we don’t need are “comments” which are derogatory or misleading in a review of the poll. I have seen plenty of that on Rasmussen. So we agree. Stick to the poll and say nothing reflecting your “leanings.” Rasmussen has crossed the line with me.

I can see if Trump wins, we get the following headlines:

“Millions unemployed as Trump cuts government workers - Women and children most affected”.
“Fed unsure what to do at this point as national debt falls below the $18 trillion mark May raise interest rates.”
“College applications overwhelm schools as qualified candidates apply.”
“Saudi riots continue as cruel US Oil market causes financial ruin in the Kingdom”.
