Trump closes gap from 7.9% to 2.8% in 4 weeks...
 

Since the glamour of the democratic convention has now disappeared , hillarys lead has almost disappeared too, down 5.1% in 4 weeks...without the magical oratory skills of the obamas and bill clinton , jillary cuts a pretty uninspiring figure ....Trump is mocked and for good reason, but hes far better tv and hes getting much bigger crowds too...This could go down to the wire

His statement on Putin will not go down well I doubt so expect normal service being resumed.

Anyway, it is the big States he will have to be winning and Hillary is doing good in them.

Even in Texas, the Dallas Morning News, has come out in support for her and that is the first time this publication has endorsed a Democrat since the 1940s.

This is a dark time for America as both candidates seem to be hated, and whoever does win this election will clearly be a one term President as America will throw out their own Tony Blair/David Cameron I'm sure.

Its not down to a popular vote though is it? People are near-certain that Clinton will win because of their constituency-like rules? Right? I dont keep up with American politics much but I don't think the country is anywhere close to doomed yet is it?

That statement wont make much difference....he just said hes a strong leader with big approval ratings....when you look at syria and lybia , you cant help but wonder if clinton had a clue what she was doing. she took great amusement when ghadaffis broken body was ridden around town, leaving behind another leaderless vacuum with no post leader planning....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmIRYvJQeHM ...what a psycho

That cannot be said the truth, if the Daily Mirror in the UK came out for the Conservatives that would be unbelievable.
This publication has not backed a democrat for the White House since 1944 I believe.

Of course it would and will be significant.

You are right, it is the electoral college votes and the big States who in the main decide this in numbers from them.

It could well be a candidate could actually be leading the popular vote yet not get the numbers needed from the electoral college votes.

Hillary Clinton should easily and for me hopefully have some of the biggest States, namely California as an example of one.

Blair won three elections, Cameron won two, and neither were voted out of their office so not sure I see the comparison there

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 8 May 2013
26,000 unreported sexual assults in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?

this person actually has a chance to become the president of the strongest country in the world

Did he really say that? what the actual ****?

The replies though :laugh:

But seriously, I can't believe this man could actually become president of the USA, that's some terrifying s**t right there

this one ... "The majority of rape victims in the U.S. military are men, you ferret headed twat:"
:joker:

Such changed times, presidential candidates almost used to be treated like divinity in the USA

I don't even know who should be more offended by that Tweet, men or women

It for sure is.
Very worrying too that he was the one chosen to be in the running in the first place.

:laugh:

@realDonaldTrump please tell me you're drunk or something

But that is actually true

why are you offended by that? its factually true, the majority of rape victims in the army are men...mainly because there are so many more men in the army.

So you disagree with Donald Trumps Tweet as well? excellent.

No one is saying that it isn't?

I'm not offended by the Tweet Bitontheslide posted, i think you are misunderstanding us both Truth :laugh:

ok youre not offended by that and no I dont think the fact more men get raped totally wipes out trumps brash statement.....the ratio of women getting raped is much higher than men, but men total more as there are more men
either way its a disgusting crime and the rapists need to rot in hell
i dont know much about army life, maybe more should be done to protect soldiers against these dangers, how seperate the female and male soldiers should be kept is another moot point, clearly you cant look to reduce female soldiers because of the risk of men raping them....but its an issue that must be dealt with. once again though this will not hurt him in the polls because his supporters see it as him daring to discuss matters than are banned from discussing by the hard line political correct activists

yeah but come on, it's not "PC gone mad" to think that post is moronic :laugh:

He's never going to win and good job too, he's a ****ing idiot. He's nothing but a cheap reality TV star that wants the White House because someone else has it. He's got no political skills, no financial skills and everything he has he's inherited.

He is a spoilt rich kid that never grew up.

His comments are over the top ,though maybe they do hold some water....rape incidents have increased since the number of female soldiers increased. the real question is whether the poltically correct people want to simply mock trump for his heavy handed approach to the discussion or do they want to actually address this serious issue and work out a way where the threat of this crime can be reduced...either way twitter is never the best place to discuss these matters. trying to sum up a complex matter with 140 character tweets nearly always ends up in farce

the last few parts of your post are simply untrue....the first parts do hold some water
