Clinton opens up double-digit lead over Trump nationwide

Some of the bros seem upset with this news

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512117709

NEW YORK, June 3 (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton has opened up a double-digit lead over Republican rival Donald Trump, regaining ground after the New York billionaire briefly tied her last month, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday.


The shift in support comes as Clinton steps up her attacks on the real estate mogul's policy positions, and as Trump fends off criticisms of his eponymous university and the pace at which he doled out money that he raised for U.S. veterans.

Some 46 percent of likely voters said they supported Clinton, while 35 percent said they supported Trump, and another 19 percent said they would not support either, according to the survey of 1,421 people conducted between May 30 and June 3.

Trump had briefly tied Clinton in support among likely U.S. voters in mid-May, raising expectations for a tight race between the two likely contenders in November's presidential election.

"because it will lull people into an unearned, false sense of security and complacency, believing that Hillary will actually beat Trump in November. There is very little reason to believe that."


"It's all in the plan the plan for Royalty to take the crown on Clinton Festive Day."

"This corronation has been going on since the beginning of this primary long before Bernie"

"msm propoganda. they need to feed the narrative she is falling faster than blue ice out of an airplane lavatory, has a possible indictment coming, and trump is uniting the gop.desperation reigns for the money party."

Let's hope that, if she is the eventual nominee, that this remains. And lets hope Hilary doesn't go on cruise control. No matter what happens, she still has to fight this one out. And by the way, has anybody considered doubling on down on Trumps sad reliance on the term "political correctness". That's a term that goes back all the way to the late 1980s. I used to have some Hammer Pants, but you wouldn't catch me dead in them today. Not that I would have a problem with anybody who wore them themselves.

considering what happened in 2008. I believe she's well aware, and precisely the reason none of the "she thinks she's entitled to the presidency" baloney posts mean squat.

Hammer pants! I remember those! I had a few friends who were great break dancers wore those and parachute pants all the time.

Was playing around with the filters, and it's interesting that in racial profiles, she wins ALL but the white voters polled.

Is it possible she will bring South Carolina in play in November if she is leading by double digits in the polls?

primaries if he saw he was way behind in the polls. This was some time ago, but I assume this is still his attitude.
