Another New Poll Shows Clinton Expanding Her National Lead over Trump


..........It's been a rough week for Donald Trump, and it's beginning to register in the polling data............

Another national poll shows Hillary Clinton expanding her lead over Donald Trump as the Republican nominee continues to unravel days after imploding on the debate stage. The Times-Picayune/Lucid presidential tracking poll released Thursday shows the former Secretary of State with a five-point lead over Trump, the largest margin she’s had in the survey in several weeks.

What’s even more troubling for the Republican nominee is that he only clocked in at a dismal 37 percent in the poll – his worst showing in weeks, according to this particular survey. But it’s not just this poll that has shown the numbers moving in Clinton’s direction. Public Policy Polling’s national poll released yesterday shows Clinton ahead by four points, and the latest Rasmussen poll – which has been a Trump-leaning survey throughout the campaign – released on Thursday showed a six-point swing in Clinton’s direction in just a week………………….

Most unlikely that these numbers will be heading back in Trump’s favor …….

Since his awful debate performance, Trump has found himself weight-shaming a former Miss Universe winner and blaming Hillary Clinton for her husband’s infidelities……..

.............And the not to be topped 3 am Twitter storm……..

All moves that are likely to hurt him more with the voters…….
 
Even the simplest of simpleton's knows that, when you find yourself digging a hole for yourself, stop digging.

But not the Donald. No sir. "He's smart." :lamo

I think anybody who touts polls is an idiot because all polls are easily manipulated. I won't even get into the details of all those links you presented...they all contain elements that make them bogus, including that much venerated RCP Average...but I will comment on that Times-Picayune/Lucid poll you lead off with.

They state quite clearly on their own website that their respondents are not randomly selected, that their respondents are self-selected survey participants and that the responses are selected, adjusted and weighted according to some unspecified metric.

Heck, you would probably get a more accurate result if you sent people to all of Trump's rallies and all of Hillary's rallies, asked them your poll questions...and posted THOSE results. At least you'd be talking to real people and revealing what they really think. Instead of manipulating answers that some group of people to suit your own biases.

You haven't seen me ever say polls are anything but bogus...not even when they show Trump being ahead. Those are manipulated as well.

I've stated many times that the only poll that counts will be the one taken on Nov. 8th.

I don't know...I think a lot of people might be very surprised at how it works out. That's the only prediction I'll make.
