The Lying Orange Douchebag Himself doubled down on his craziness overnight as the polls showed he trails Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton by at least 10 points with an amazing – fantastic – huuge – attack on the latter that borders on assassination association.
From ZH:
Donald Trump on Tuesday seemed to suggest to his supporters that one way to avoid a potential President Hillary Clinton getting to select multiple Supreme Court nominees would be for armed revolt.
“Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment,” Trump began. “By the way, if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. But I’ll tell you what: that will be a horrible day. If Hillary gets to put her judges—right now we’re tied, you see what’s going on, we’re tied because Scalia—this was not supposed to happen, Justice Scalia was supposed to be around for ten more years at least. And now he’s gone.”
Thankfully the idiot presumptive is crashing in the polls against the candidate no-one likes or wants, with the gap widening ever further from CNN:
The CNN Poll of Polls incorporating the results of six major polls — all conducted after the party conventions concluded in late July — finds Clinton with an average of 49% support to Trump’s 39%. When third party candidates Gary Johnson and Jill Stein are included, the margin remains the same, with both candidates losing the same amount of support to land at 45% for Clinton to 35% for Trump, with Johnson at 9% and Stein at 5%.The new averages reflect a sharp increase in support for Clinton compared with pre-convention polls.The last CNN Poll of Polls, analyzing the results of five national, live-interviewer telephone polls conducted before the GOP convention began, found Clinton ahead 45% to 41%.
