    I don't know these people and can't vouch for them, but the stated methodology sounds solid. In any event, with the shoddy quality of most polls, it is worth thinking about. Anyway, they have Trump winning with 67%. What do you all think about this?

    OK, if you want to see it, you will have to copy and paste the link replacing the **** with the 't' from 'investment' and the 'wat' from 'watch'.

    Both could apply, but a poll of 50K people, 1K from each state, divided 33%R, 33%D, and 34% independent would be a hard sample to argue with.

    OK, I saw where my previously posted link had some of the middle cut out along with the **** substituted in. You might try that, again, replacing the 't' missing from 'investment' and the 'wat' missing from 'watch'.

    I had to take the http:// out from in front to get it to quit condensing the text. You should be able to get to the link with a little copy and past now.

    As soon as they get out of range to hear the voices of the people that put them in office, they start listening to the people that will invite them to the cool parties or think they can make the media say nice things about them if they just "reach across the aisle". Like Charlie Brown and the football, they never learn.
    Exactly, perfect argument for Trump. He's the one throwing the cool parties, and he doesn't give a crap what the media thinks about him.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news. I think you should start preparing yourself for the eventuality of Hillary. That pains me to even say. And I hope to hell I'm wrong. But I think you guys are clinging to straw hope.

    Trump won't do what he needs to do to win. I don't know why? Hillary is so beatable. All he needs to do to win is blanket the airwaves with Hillary's testimony about her emails, juxtaposed with Comy's press conference and congressional testimony. All day every day. Nothing but Hillary's lies wall-to-wall 24-7. And, then for himself, shut the **** up. Put his damn phone down and stay off twitter. That's it. He wins.

    But no. He won't do that.

    Look guys, He's not going to win this by saying stupid **** on social media. Most people don't mind entertainers saying stupid **** on social media. But they kinda like their Presidents to say smart stuff.

    Trump is just the swing of the pendulum. He has to happen, he is the answer for today.

    OMG. I'm. Just. Speechless. I honestly don't know what to say to that. I mean. What makes you think that? I don't get that at all. The answer for today? You really believe that? Why? What makes you so sure that Trump is even telling you the truth? I mean, that's just kinda like blind faith. He HAS to happen? Why? You think there's some kind of cosmic karma force that yings the yang? I just don't believe it. You do have the pendulum stuff right though. It do swang. But I think it will be decades before it swangs back right.

    What will you say when Trump gets trounced by the spastic criminal? Oh I hope I'm wrong. I hope to hell that ****ing ***** looses her ass. Well, I don't know if hope is the right word. I think I've lost any hope. I think not only is Trump not gonna happen, I think if Trump doesn't start fighting back now, it's going to be such a thorough thrashing that it will set back any opposition to Democrats for years.

    I'm not saying all this to dog on you fellas. But I really do think you need to make peace with the coming socialist America.

    He won't do it, or won't do it right now? There are two possibilities: You are right and he is simply his own worst enemy. You just need to be patient and see that he isn't acting right now for the purpose of blanketing the airwaves in timing with the election so that it is fresh in people's minds and not 'old news' by the time the election gets here.

    While I can't pretend to know what is in someone else's head, I prefer to believe that he understands his viewing audience well enough to have grasped the latter and is in fact acting accordingly. Reagan gained much advantage over Carter by simply understanding the relationships between himself, the people, and the lens standing between them. I am hoping that, especially with significant television experience behind him, that Trump understands the same thing, updated for today's audience rather than the audience of 36 years ago.

    There hasn't even been a debate yet.

    Romney would have won if he didn't tuck his head in his shell and be the nice guy. Trump isn't going to do that. It's going to be explosive. HRC is going to talk in circles. If Trump hits the points he will demolish her.

    Relax.
