Hillary Clinton surged to a broad advantage against Donald Trump in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, capitalizing on Trump’s recent campaign missteps. Two-thirds of Americans see him as biased against groups such as women, minorities or Muslims, and a new high, 64 percent, call Trump unqualified to serve as president.

These and other doubts about Trump have produced a sharp 14-point swing in preferences among registered voters, from +2 points for Trump in mid-May, after he clinched the GOP nomination, to +12 points for Clinton now, 51-39 percent. That snaps the race essentially back to where it was in March.

1. I have always said,,,

that since 1980 the GOP was the Largest Organized Group of Bigots and Hate Mongers in the USA albeit sometimes it ran just below the Surface of the Party. But Trump has brought all the GOP Bigots and Hate Mongers to the surface and out of the Closet!

[Iliyah]

2. Wel hell, Americans couldn't pick that up when President Obama was elected?

And it has not stopped.

[OnDoutside]

7. And they cannot be allowed to get away with not being tarred by the same Trump brush, yet remain in

the Republican Party.

[Cryptoad]

8. exactly

we have to frame the election than every time someone is associated Trump , they will be thought of as a Bigot. Trump sign in the yard,,,, confirms a a Bigot lives there... if downstream candidate appears with Trump ,,,, they are Bigots!

[OnDoutside]

9. Agreed. Let them with nowhere to run, nowhere to hide ;)

[ToxMarz]

3. 64% think he is unqualified to be President

and 39% support him, so there are a number of people who actually believe he is unqualified and will vote for him. SMH!

[Johnny2X2X]

4. His speech tanked

His anti Hillary speech tanked last week. He was speaking to the people he won over in the primary. The rest of the country was appalled that the speech was entirely lies.

[Blue_Adept]

11. Only because he was finally called out for it

The wave of sources beating down the lies was surprising. Usually they're just passed on without commentary by papers and sources, so it was an interesting shift in narrative there. Especially since they tend to let lies about the Clintons linger even longer.

[William769]

5. kick & recommended.

[TwilightZone]

6. 14-point swing in barely a month

[bucolic_frolic]

10. Keep good going

Hillary's an effective candidate, I think she has considerable upside
as people warm up to her. She's been so vilified by the GOP-manufactured
email scandal that things are likely to improve from here.

Trump's baggage is known, and he must spend time trying to turn that
around. I expect he will vilify Hillary some more in October with email
and Banghazi taunts, and keep screaming "Take your country back!"
because it worked in Britain. Trump's numbers will improve as I think
they've bottomed, but I see his upside as a moderate move. You just
can't change the temperament and character issue overnight, or at all
really.

12. K&R!

[TomCADem]

13. Biased? He Is The Most Overly Racist and Sexist Candidate in Decades

He does not even bother with the dog whistle code words these days.

[hibbing]

16. Stuck out like a sore thumb

My first thought biased? So to steal from the fascist himself, is that the "politically correct" term for racists these days?

Peace

[asiliveandbreathe]

14. We must remain vigilant and get out the vote -

Straight up and down Dem ticket - local elections matter - just a peek looking back at 2012 results...

•Obama got 51.1 percent of the popular vote to Mitt Romney's 47.2 percent, a four point margin. (Let's all pause for a moment and savor the fact that history will show that Romney won … 47 percent.) That's a wider margin than George W. Bush won by in 2004 (51-48), when pundits on the right like Charles Krauthammer declared that he had earned a mandate. OOPS!

•That makes Obama the first president to crack 51 percent two elections in a row since Dwight Eisenhower more than a half-century ago. (Sorry, conservatives, Ronald Reagan only reached 50.75 percent in 1980.)

So, some are saying The Trumpster will do better than that 47% - he has a long way to go from 39% .....from 44% - with NO support (except from Sessions - Gomer - and King - the three stooges, no offense to the three stooges) - I've got the popcorn and I'm a good sharer....

Be well ALL Du'ers...

[IrishEyes]

15. That looks good.

but I don't want us to relax about the election. I want us work hard until election day to get every vote we can. I want Trump to lose very badly.

[sheshe2]

20. I agree Irish.

No relaxing. I also want to see the entire GOP go down in flames.

Good to see you, Irish.

[Sunlei]

18. When/If Republicans kick out DT, push in another from their 'suspended group' polls will change.

I think that's someones campaign plan for the general election

[SunSeeker]

19. Good. If we get out the Dem vote we can flip Congress!

[sheshe2]

21. Yes!

I love that last picture of Hillary!

[herding cats]

22. I love seeing this.

I hope the margin not only holds, but increases.

23. Wuahhhaaahhaaa!!!!

A bit more than four months to go before the orange yam goes down.

[SheriffBob]

24. Republican Dirty Tricks

Have no limits. They are the party of satan!

I believe their next move will be cannibalism.
