Trump Falls in LA Times Tracking Poll Following Republican Convention

[Doctor Jack]

Now, a caution because the LA Time tracking poll has always shown Trump ahead (its one of those polls) but his lead has fallen, not gone up following the Republican Convention.

The RNC started on July 18th, at which point Trump had a 1.1 point lead. Today it is 0.2 points. Hahah, what a fucking idiot.


Seriously though, poor Trump, he just wants to be America's first dictator and no one is letting him

1. Hey, all's good - remember all his crowing on Friday morning bout his zillions of twitter followers?

We don't need no stinking media or pollsters to help our campaign, we can control the message through our record number of followers on social media! They were positively orgasmic about the bump in FB followers after the convention. It was surreal.

If he couldn't get anything out of this, then he'll only go down.

5. That page is not up to date. He actually got a boost after his Thursday night fascist tirade!!!

Here it is from USC official site.

LA Times is not including 7/22 while USC is. It shows +1.7% increase for Trump on Friday compared to Thursday. I have no idea how good this poll is and they show everyday within the margin of error (grey zone).

7. As of July 22, he's up 44.2 to 42.3 per:

He's clearly seeing some sort of post-convention bump - and the Reuters/Ipsos poll's tightening also confirms this, the question is how big that bump will utlimately be.
