he'll be competitive in NY and California. I hope he puts a lot of resources into both states just to make sure. Maybe Massachusetts, NJ and Connecticut while he's at it. I heard airtime is really cheap in metro LA and NYC.

He just wants to make ridiculous speeches to rabid fans. He doesn't want to go where his reception will be lukewarm by people who have the nerve to question him about anything. He wants pictures of cheering crazed fans that he can post on social media. In his mind, that will prove to everybody how popular and well loved he is. He really is delusional.

they may be doing us a favor by making it seem like he has a chance. God forbid people think this is a done deal and don't go to the polls. Even if it is a done deal for her, we need the Senate!

One outlier poll comes out and they go running and screaming after it. Anything to drum up ratings for a few hours. But i get the feeling no one is falling for this shit

is ahead but not by as much as Earl's graphic would have you think. The latest Quinnipiac national poll has it as a statistical dead heat. And the RCP average has it Clinton +6.2. That's not nearly good enough. And RCP also has Trump and Clinton within the MOE in at least four battleground states.

If he can sour the electorate on the Republican party enough, it may cost them senators, representatives, governors, and state legislators.

Once you achieve that the lead is considered stronger because you have the majority of the voters. The undecided are the great unknown. It looks like Hillary Clinton is on her way in all these states, especially FL, but the 51% threshold will be very reassuring.

saying he liked them, didn't like them. would make them better, he made profits off them. Where does he really stand on trade policies. All his material goods are NOT made in the USA. And he says that ok, But he doesn't want others or his supporters too. OMG, Trump has the dumbest supporters.

most of his message was on Scotland and how good it was. He also praised senile Gov. LePage too. I am wondering when Trump will address his dealings with the mobs when he built on properties. He certainly was not a strong leader dealing with the mobs, but paid them off in higher labor and material costs. So is this really the strong Trump?
