There has been too much terror about the possibility of Trump, the guy with the delusions of grandeur and the obsessive self love might become the most powerful person in the world. Good news, he has taken water down the stacks and his campaign is circling the bowl. Relax, the threat has passed and we dodged the bullet.

Donald Trump's poll numbers have fallen off a cliff — and even he knows it

By Allan Smith 2 hours ago
.
Donald Trump's poll numbers are plummeting — and even the presumptive Republican nominee has acknowledged it.
In the latest RealClearPolitics average of several polls, Trump trails Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, by 5.8 points. It's a 6-point reversal from a month ago.
The fall in fortune comes after he trailed Clinton by 12 points in a Bloomberg poll released earlier this week. Polls from Reuters and CBS News showed Trump behind by 9 points and 6 points.

Trump has fallen behind Clinton in 12 consecutive polls posted to RealClearPolitics.
Less than a month ago, Trump's future was looking brighter against Clinton in their general-e******n matchup.
As recently as May 25, Trump led Clinton in the RCP polling average by one-fifth of a point — the first instance of the Manhattan businessman leaping ahead of Clinton in the coveted polling average.
But as Trump has taken hits for his attacks on a federal judge over his Mexican heritage and a controversial response to last weekend's terrorist attack in Orlando, Florida, his poll numbers have taken a nosedive. At 38.3%, Trump's average support in a one-on-one matchup against Clinton is the lowest it has been since August 15 — just two months after he launched his campaign.
The chart below shows just how dramatic the plummet of Trump's poll numbers has been:

Too funny. He's in red state Texas right now begging for money. It seems he doesn't even have enough to counter Hillary's 17M in ads against him. Imagine, a multi billionaire and he can't even find the money for a political ad. Well so much for "self financing" I think we all knew it was a joke. He's probably giving BJ's as we speak--at least he's back in his normal domain so he should be comfortable...

PeterS

Oh, I don't know Un-American. All you can do is denigrate others and never have anything positive to say. That's pretty sad even for conservative standards...

It's strange how Trump doesn't like to "butter" up those issi muslims. Sometimes one can be too patriotic and too principled for their own pocket book's good. Just shame on him!!!

crackerjack

Now, that Hillary knows which side her bread is buttered on.

And only yesterday, as an indication of how truly bad things have gotten for the Trump campaign, House Speaker Paul Ryan, who will chair the Republican national convention in Cleveland next month, said that he wants convention delegates "TO V**E THEIR CONSCIENCE", and not their state's designated primary winner. Which essentially says that delegates should v**e for whoever they want to v**e for, even if Trump got the majority of the v**es in that state.
Ryan and Trump have been butting heads after Trump tried to bluster past Ryan only to be put in his place by Ryan.
Trump's fantasy world is quickly coming apart and not a moment too soon.
The Republican national convention needs to nominate a true constitutional conservative, and that's definitely NOT Trump, if this country is to be saved from the dumpster fire that will be the Hillary presidency.
But with Trump as the Republican nominee, Hillary will mop the floor with Trump. His negatives are sky high and deservedly so. Donors are not donating and he's way behind in campaign contributions and support for him is drying up.
Here's hoping that adults take charge of the nominating process.
I, and millions of other sensible, well adjusted conservatives, cringe at the thought of Trump being the Republican party's nominee for president.

Other entities however don't seem to want to let it go.

Here's the latest business decisions by major corporations on Trump's candidacy.

"Thanks To Trump, Companies Are Pulling Out Of The Republican National Convention
By Ryan Denson on June 17, 2016 5:23 pm ·
Now that Republicans are only a month away from officially nominating a r****t, sexist, bigot, companies responsible for funding the Republican National Convention are pulling out, and for good reason: bigotry isn’t good for business.

Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, Motorola, Ford, Walgreens and UPS (all of whom sponsored the 2012 convention) have announced they will be pulling out of this year’s convention. Although none of the companies have publicly said why they are pulling out, Trump’s continuous slamming of the Ford Corporation could explain why the motor company is calling it quits. Sources close with Wells Fargo say they will continue to sponsor the Democratic National Convention because of a large market outreach in Philadelphia.

Coca-Cola has also pulled out of the RNC, citing bad publicity.

Their decision to pull out comes as the RNC is close to reaching their goal of $64 million to fund the convention. With these companies now retracting their monetary support, the RNC will have to find new ways to make up for the lost funds. Maybe they could ask their nominee? He is a “billionaire,” after all.

Several months ago, the New York Times reported Apple, Walmart, and Google are considering pulling out as well, as public pressure mounts against the presumptive nominee.

Republican fundraising consultant Carla Eudy told the Times:

I have talked to several people at companies who have said, ‘I’ve always gone to the convention, I’ve always participated at some level, but this year we’re not putting it in our budget, we’re not going, we’re no going to sponsor any of the events going on.

Things aren’t looking good for the RNC, and yet Reince Priebus insists everything is O.K. when, in fact, nothing is O.K. The public is turning against them, big business is turning against them, and members of their own party are turning against them.

Cleveland will be a catastrophe, and it’s all thanks to Donald J. Trump. Congratulations, GOP, you built that. Now, reap what you sow."

Hey reconreb, can you read the writing on the wall? Maybe you Goooooo Trumpers need to wake up and adopt a new slogan, "Gooooooo away Trump"

Mikeyavelli

Never has such vicious language been used opposing a candidate. And this is from both sides.
Trump isn't h**ed because he says politically incorrect things, he's h**ed because as an outsider he'll shake up the cozy cabal of the g*******ts and make America great again.

waltmoreno

Hey Trumpbots! You're ostriches! Heads buried in the sand.
A better description would be lemmings. All headed over the cliff. In lockstep with your orange pied-piper.

Major corporations don't make multi-million dollar decisions to withdraw support lightly. They do it based on their best research.

The major corporations are pulling out of supporting Trump because he's bad for their bottom line. He's a pariah, toxic to their brand.

And that's why Paul Ryan, the RNC chairman is also letting convention delegates v**e "their conscience", ie., for whomever they want to. Trump be damned! Sensible people can read train wreck, dumpster fire, hot mess, etc, all combined, and take proactive steps without actually having to go through it. Unfortunately Trumbots don't have that same ability.

Trying to get folks to understand that very thing is hard to do. The MSM along with FOX are doing all they can to belittle Trump. The RNC is shooting themselves in the foot if they continue on the path they are travelling. If Ryan and the other RINOS don't get off their high horses you can look forward to the Hilda Beast being in the corrupt house.

Mikeyavelli

Yeah, their best research stops at the donor list to Hilliar.
Suddenly, these corporations who are moving away from Trump are doing because of their high morals? My Allah, we can no longer associate with Trump because he actually says what he thinks?
No, they paid Hilliar for favors when she's c****ated and since Trump has a very good chance at upsetting establishment plans the h**ed corporations are being asked to help Hilliar.

=====================
The country is on a verge of collapse. Terrorists are k*****g us, and but still rapidly being t***sported to our country to k**l us.
The massacre in Orlando, FL, was again politicized by President Obama blaming GUNS, instead of the RADICAL ISLAM plaguing our country right now. When he went to talk to the families of the victims, he used guns as the reason why their children were k**led. He did not mention and never mentioned RADICAL ISLAM. After blaming guns the families of the victims were then convinced v****g for democrats and Hillary Clinton citing that democrats will control guns and take away from the American people, depriving them of their line of defenses from Islam terrorists.

It was reported yesterday that, President Obama along with his HSD, will issue 1 million green cards to the Muslims being t***sported to the US. Thousands of them are RADICAL ISLAM as reported by the Chief of CIA John Brennan. Just for few days since the Orlando terror massacre, there were 441 Muslim Syrians brought to the US by the HSD. They are rapidly t***sferring Muslims including terrorists to reach the 1 million quota by end of 2016. Their green cards are ready to be given by Obama.

This is the "Hope and Change" Obama had promised in 2008, and he is very successful doing it. Also the Political Correctness has been very effective in preventing people from reporting Muslim violence to FBI afraid of being prosecuted by Lynch the DOJ of president Obama. After the San Bernardino RADICAL ISLAM attacks, DOJ issued a warning that anybody who slams Muslims using bad words like "Jihad, Sharia, Islam radicals", and etc, will be prosecuted to the extent of the law.

With this pronouncement, your First Amendment Rights are now abolished, along with the 2nd Amendment rights.
This sounds like a Sharia Law and Marxist form of governance.
