Trump's Lead in LA Times/USC-Dornsife Poll Extends to 5%

It's happening folks. Trump extended his lead over Hillary from 3.0% points to 4.7% today.

Trump: 46.7% (+0.9%)
Clinton: 42.0% (-0.8%)

It seems like Trump's growth is coming from millennials, increased intensity, the "uneducated" and African Americans.

From Wikipedia:

“The usage of “jump the shark” has subsequently broadened beyond television, indicating the moment when a brand, design, franchise, or creative effort’s evolution declines, or when it changes notably in style into something unwelcome.”

Which explains the collapse of the Hillary brand.

I don’t want her support to collapse too soon or else they will replace her with her body double.

I predicted, that by the time the first debate arrives.....Trump will be leading HIllary Clinton by at least ten points. I warned the Clinton/Obama, biased media & her Democrat cohorts, months ago, that hanging on with Hillary Clinton will lead to the same defeat as Trump handed to his Republican opponents. The TV pundits and naysayers have done exactly the same mistakes, as the naysayer Republican pundits made whn thy laughing off DJT.

The difference is now Trump has sharpened his game and delivery, becoming powerfully “Presidential”. On November 8, 2016, Donald J. Trump will slaughter Hillary Clinton, politically in a massive landslide victory and, he will assist the Republican Party is holding both the House & Senate. The Democrat Party simply screwed themselves....by living in poliitcal Lala land!!!

Hillary will not debate.

If she can’t control her environment, she feels vulnerable.

Her paranoia and penchant for secrecy preclude accountability.

I think it’s something more primal. People are starting to lose their fear of the Clintons.

And this is only the second iteration in a 7-day rolling average. What's it gonna be after 5 more days?

What are the communists to do - lose with the old bag or cut their losses now?

Beyond the margin of error!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nope.

They are LESS THAN 95% confident that the candidate with the highest percentage will win the POPULAR vote.

Even if the poll HAD 95% confidence, America uses the Electoral College, not the popular vote.

The “trend” is only 48 hours long.

Trump’s numbers were much better in late July.

They were transient then.

CW made Hillary the prohibitive favorite and she looked tough to beat.

No longer.

The new poll numbers are a major breakthrough. It’s time to be a little more optimistic. She has bad judgement with her own health and she is willing to infect others to keep it a secret. Watch out Donald here comes the kitchen sink.

Absolutely. There will be no end to the completely unfounded accusations and dirty tricks coming down the pike.

The Dems took the old GOPE place, this year.....handing the nomination to the next person who was in line for it. They had a lousy, extremely weak bench and still had to play games to make sure that Hillary got it, though.

Males———————DT+10.0-————DT+19.1-—DT+ 9.1

18-34———————HC+5.3—————DT+6.3——DT+ 11.6

Trump has not enjoyed this level of support since July 29, the day after the end of the Democratic convention.

True.

With Trump turning in super performances of late and Hitlery just screaming ‘racist,’ lying, not showing up except on good days, often looking like Hell, and then passing out in public, I expected there would be a wide differential.

State polls are a lagging indicator.

Trump is ahead in OH, FL and IA. Others soon to follow.

They convinced themselves Trump would never win the GOP nomination.

Here we are a couple weeks away from Election Day.

Also screw the Never Trumpers. This should push Jonah Goldberg off the ledge.

One overlooked feature of this election cycle is the role the Summer Olympics had in extending the campaign from 60 to 90 days due to conventions being held a month earlier than normal. Trump took full advantage of this extra time while Hillary hunkered down.
