https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics ... story.htmlIn new poll, support for Trump has plunged, giving Clinton a double-digit lead
Support for Donald Trump has plunged as he has alienated fellow Republicans and large majorities of voters overall in the course of a month of self-inflicted controversies, propelling Democrat Hillary Clinton to a double-digit lead nationally in a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
The survey finds sweeping unease with the presumptive Republican nominee’s candidacy — from his incendiary rhetoric and values to his handling of both terrorism and his own business — foreshadowing that the November election could be a referendum on Trump more than anything else.
Roughly two in three Americans say they think Trump is unqualified to lead the nation; are anxious about the idea of him as president; believe his comments about women, minorities and Muslims show an unfair bias; and see his attacks on a federal judge because of his Mexican American heritage as racist.
in a head-to-head general election matchup, Clinton leads Trump 51 percent to 39 percent among registered voters nationwide, the poll found. This is Clinton’s largest lead in Post-ABC polling since last fall and a dramatic reversal from last month’s survey, which found the race nearly even, with Trump at 46 percent and Clinton at 44 percent.
As the hard-fought general election gets underway, Trump’s political standing is on dangerous ground. Fifty-six percent of the public at large say the celebrity business mogul stands against their beliefs, while 64 percent say he does not have the necessary credentials to be president. Fifty-six percent feel strongly that he is unqualified.
Nearly one-third of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents say Trump is unqualified for office, and 18 percent say he does not represent their beliefs, exposing deep fissures in the GOP base as Trump struggles to unite conservatives going into next month’s national convention in Cleveland.

I wouldn't be too sure of that strategy. Some polls I was looking at earlier showed that similar percentages of Republicans and Democrats would vote Libertarian.

Fine with me, the fewer votes for the trumpanzee, the better.
The challenge for Trump opponents is this would involve navigating a complicated process littered with roadblocks and procedural obstacles. The first step would be to get at least 25%, but ideally a majority, of the rules committee to endorse a conscience clause.

I watched segments of this doc and it appeared to praise Drumpf more than vilify him. And then at 1:44:06, with no resolution, it abruptly ends. So, what did I miss... or is that Part 2?BoSoxGal wrote:Watching this on History Channel, anybody seen it?...
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/don ... 534f484dccPresumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump added his voice to the ongoing debate about whether the United Kingdom should leave the European Union — but noted that no one should listen to him, because he’s not familiar with the issue.
“I don’t think anybody should listen to me, because I haven’t really focused on it very much, but my inclination would be to get out, because you know, just go it alone,” Trump said during an appearance on Fox Business Network.
