Oh what post? So as usual they lied for profit. Thanks I already knew they possess this quality. It should be self evident to everyone after Hillary. I can’t imagine anyone who knows better doesn’t realize that. Hey its Bible, we know everyone doesn’t have ears to hear.

The polls are scaring them? Are you basing that on a fundraising letter? Seriously?

Here are ALL the national polls since the beginning of June.

I truncated your post. These are not all the national polls since June.

Also, yes this is regarding the primaries not the General, and state polls not national polls, but as the following article points out, Trump outperformed what the RealClearPolitics average gave in various states.

I agree. I don’t know one person who admits wanting to vote for him. (and that includes my thoroughly Republican family)

My experience here in a University town, is that people voting for Clinton absolutely “freak out” if you mention you might or will vote for Trump. They launch into an attack on Trump and if you dare say anything about Hillary, they are absolutely insulted. I might say I disagree with her stance on life issues. OHMG>>>>>>> how could you say that? It’s a mortal sin here to be pro life. She is not truthful…she is not safe for our country, etc. . I have yet to meet anyone that can just discuss the issues that is Democrat here without acting personally insulted you are not voing for Clinton.

Accept it. Trump is the nominee. You and your friends need to vote for Trump if you are pro-life, because he is the only candidate on either side of the aisle who will address the flood of illegal immigration. This matters, because if the current demographic trend is not stopped, and indeed reversed, a conservative pro life candidate will never be elected again.

P.S. the polls at this stage are meaningless. Not one pollster predicted the rise of Trump. The game has shifted.

My understanding is that a lot of the immigrants are Catholic and Christian… A lot of Hispanics and African Americans are pro life.

However the Republicans with their rhetoric and talk about not funding the poor lose them.

Well, I left out two that extended back into May but here you go…

IBD/TIPP 5/31 - 6/5 Clinton +5
Rasmussen Reports 5/31 - 6/1 Clinton +1

🤷

Oops, I think I got confused with state polling. Yes it’s true, based on RealClearPolitics, Clinton is leading in most recent national polls, but the swing state polls are showing it close. And as I posted similarly before, Trump outperformed RealClearPolitics averages in various state.

Why is Trump a racist?

Just a few minutes.
 
Interesting take from Scott Adams blog. He has been following the race from assessing who is the better “persuader”
Trump’s biggest problem in this election so far is that most racists appear to be on his side. At least it looks that way to the public. That awkward perception allowed Team Clinton to brand the Trump campaign as the racist team. Clinton’s strategy of racial politics has been effective. I recently blogged that “crooked” beats “racist” every time, meaning that unless something changes, Clinton has the persuasion advantage.But today we see in the polls that the candidates are effectively tied. What changed?

The biggest change is not the FBI’s decision on Clinton’s email scandal, although that is clearly part of it. To my eyes, the biggest change is that Clinton’s team just became the cop-killing side. At least that’s how it looks to our irrational minds. Your brain thinks cops are probably Trump supporters (true or not) while you probably see cop-killers as Clinton supporters (true or not). And that means the recent slaughter of five policemen in Dallas changed your mental equation.

Now it seems – to our irrational minds – that we no longer have a contest between crooked and racist. Now we have a contest between cop-killers and racists. And in that contest, the racists win. That’s because most folks see in themselves at least a little bit of racial bias, but almost none of us see ourselves as cop-killers. So identity politics now favors racist because the alternative is cop-killer. There aren’t many ways to make peace-loving racists seem like a good thing, but compared to cop-killers, they come out slightly ahead.

It is a shame they do not consider the life issue that important.

I would trust a church run charity over a pro abortion government that just wants people on welfare for a long time…they don’t want to teach them “to fish”.

When you teach someone to fish, you are no longer guaranteed their vote
 
Irish Central:
Remote Irish island seeks Americans fleeing Donald Trump presidency
Click to expand...
American citizens, who are terrified at the prospect of Donald Trump becoming the next President, have been urged to consider relocating to one of Ireland’s remotest islands.
Inishturk, off Co. Mayo, has seen its once thriving population plummet to just 58, with only three pupils attending the local primary school.
The dwindling community’s leaders are desperately trying to entice families to move over to breathe new life into the isolated outpost and secure its future.
And they stressed their tranquil isle, located nine miles off the coast, could make the ideal permanent refuge for those who cannot face life in a United States headed by Donald Trump.

Mary Heanue, Inishturk development officer, said: "Our big concern is employment and trying to encourage families to move over here because the population is declining.
"The island featured on an Irish TV documentary last year which gave us great publicity and a good few extra bookings. But we ended up having a terrible summer and a lot of people canceled.
"I’ve heard there are quite a few people in America looking to move to Ireland and other countries if Donald Trump becomes president. I’d like them to know that we’d love to see them consider moving over here.

"They’d be given a huge welcome and they’d find this is a fantastic place to live and to bring up children. Their kids would probably get the best education anywhere in the country too, because the teacher to pupil ratio is nearly one-on-one.
“Although winters can be hard and it’s the kind of life that wouldn’t necessarily suit everyone, they’d find it very peaceful here and they’d soon find out there’s nowhere as nice in the world on a summer’s day than here.”

I’m not sure how many of the Trump refugees would be happy on a small island where the sheep outnumber the people.
Here’s a video about the island: theatlantic.com/video/index/491813/the-tiny-irish-island-that-will-welcome-american-refugees/?utm_source=atlfb
 
A poll released this morning has Hillary Clinton up just 12 in NEW YORK. This is very bad for a Democrat. Looking at the past 6 elections, New York had…

Obama +28
Obama +27
Kerry +18
Gore +25
Clinton +30
Clinton +16
 
Unlike the liberals who threatened to leave after Bush was elected, maybe these people will remain true to their word! 😃
 
Sounds good. Maybe we will move there if The Clintons win. :yukonjoe:
 
I don’t get it - would we have the right to work legally over there? Or perhaps since we’re all filthy rich millionaires that’s a moot point. I might just set sail on my yacht and go check it out.
