First Read: Breaking Down Trump's Brutal June

by CHUCK TODD, MARK MURRAY and CARRIE DANN

Let us count the ways in which Donald Trump lost/squandered the month of June in his race against Hillary Clinton:

1.The polls: Trump now trails Clinton by six points nationally in the RealClearPolitics average, when Clinton's lead had been just one point in late May.

2.The money: He had just $1.3 million in the bank, according to the last campaign-finance report, versus $42 million for Clinton.

3.The ads: For the month, Clinton and her allies outspent Team Trump over the battleground-state airwaves, $26 million to $0, though the NRA starts spending $2 million on Trump's behalf in battlegrounds starting today (more on that below).

Hillary continues to hammer Drumpf, I love it!

And the President will be on the campaign trail for Hillary soon!

The only thing that worries me is that Trump is doing so bad I'm afraid he will quit or the thug party will force him out at the convention.
