judging by election polling Rasmussen is one to believe

Why wouldn't I expect you to say that as it's always given trump significantly higher figures than any other poll. This of course if the one that puts him at a 50% approval rating.

It'sbetter to use something like fivethirtyeight, which tracks the average across many polls.

he peaked slightly last week, but I think his ineffective flipflop actions on the florida shootings are hurting him currently.
Just wait until the indictments against his family...

TBH semantics was never likely to be his strong point.........

No doubt it will be excused by the white house, and spun into something else. In principle he claims all immigrants are going to bite the hand that feeds them, and they shouldn't be allowed in.

They can start by deporting his wife, who worked her as an illegal, and her parents who live here thanks to "chain migration".

We all know the election polls were screwed with everything that happened the week leading up to voting.

Hillary WAS going to win but the FBI stuff interfering changed an awful lot of on the fence voters and energised others that wouldn't have voted to vote against her.

We all know it.

they cleared her before elections, but if you really think it was the reason she lost then I don't know what to tell you...

It was one of the reason she lost , there is no doubt the FBI investigation hurt her campaign

[AreOut]

maybe, and maybe they wanted to "prove" that stories about her were false in order to help her but she still didn't make it

Interested.
Do you own a tinfoil hat for each day of the week or do you have to wear some twice?

Just write "popular vote" underneath.

There are good reasons for the electoral college, one of which prevents dominance and the subjugation of people/states, not that you care much about that it seems.

Even Trump is not in favour of it.
Has it's good points and it's bad, been around for over 200 years doubt they'll be changing it any time soon.

Why shouldnt it be one vote per person and be done with it? What does a populous state have to do with it?

Do you think the same should apply here? In the 2015 election Ukip would have been the 3rd largest party with 83 seats.

There are plenty of people that have been and to some degree still are subjugated in the US.It hasn't prevented overtly racist (and anti one thing or another) presidents to be elected in the past. Or are you only worried about the subjection of the white population?

That's fair enough. No issue with that.

You do know about true Pundit and Trumplandia in the FBI New York office don't you...
http://thehill.com/regulation/304225-agent-fbi-is-...

How they leaked to Guiiliano, trump jr, etc. How Trump Jr. retweeted the True Pundit story 96 hours before Election Day, then deleted it

I think they were very successful in using the leaks and getting comey to announce he was investigating again.
Strange don't you think how they had investigations into 5 of team trump running but didn't say anything?
