This is a battleground state only poll.
Better than expected bump.

I have pointed this out repeatedly myself. It must be that his name gets mentioned SO MUCH every time he says something stupid that his base just hears TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP and gets mobilized.

Sadly, perhaps his form of bigotry is more popular than we would like to think. He can insult a dead war hero as long as the dead war hero was a Muslim it seems.

Trump is a sexist, racist, antisemitic, anti-muslim bigot. However, by pushing the meme that "political correctness" is killing this country, Trump's hate is spun as honesty. Thus, the more hate that Trump spews, the more points he gets for being honest.

I think you nailed it.

I think that's the key qualification. If they are still in Trump's column after all the stupid and offensive shit he's said to this point, then they are stupid themselves and incapable of being offended. But I have to thing that with each huge gaffe, his ceiling falls a little lower.

Everyone hates a traitor and it gets more obvious every day. Today he was defended g Russian a against Obama. And it was totally based on his own ignorance. Even Trumpophiles are going to start seeing through this

...it is out-of-the-box thinking to walk away from NATO and reach out to Russian help against a campaign rival. Plus, it is consistent with his strong man persona to emulate dictators, rather than push diplomacy. Likewise, endorsing torture, which the establishment condemns, is also new thinking. Who needs the Geneva conventions?

PA is like Lucy holding the football and the Republican Charlie Brown (apologies to Charlie Brown) always thinks she's going to let him kick it. Every single presidential election. Never gonna happen.
