Trump blew the debate. It’s comforting to believe otherwise, but he showed himself unable to put away a terrible and corrupt opponent. He appeared over-matched with regard to factual and policy knowledge.
As for the PPP poll: in 2012 their final polls overestimated ROMNEY’S election day support by 1.6 percent.
This is not 2012. If you look at the internals they over sampled Dems and the pay master for this poll is a Hillary superpac. Take this one with the same grain of salt you would take a poll from Trumps campaign.
Michelle, Romney didn’t excited the Republican base the were millions of Republicans who didn’t vote and Romney didn’t even fought for the black votes in the inner cities like TRUMP is doing. Obama mobilized the blacks and they voted about 94% or 96% for him. Hillary will be lucky if she gets 84% that right there should be enough to beat her. Look all the polls that talks about excitement in this election and all of them say the REPUBLICANS are.
His advantage is that he is NOT a politician, he is a businessman. His calling cards must be success and preparation. He utterly failed in preparation. I still absolutely support his candidacy, but the only way he can convince folks who still need convincing, is to be completely prepared and un-fluster-able. He was not.
