    I wouldn’t exactly claim 2% polling gains as a big victory, tbh.

    I check fivethirtyeight and 270towin pretty often and it hasn’t changed much in the last 6 months. Still dystopian.

      Its preferable to the 5-pt lag he was suffering a month ago. But nothing to brag about. Hillary squandered a 10-pt lead in the month before the general election, as the media turned into a “Buttery Males” feeding frenzy.

        I can provide 5 polls in May that show him with a lead of at least 2 points.

        I can also provide 6 polls with Trump leading by the same amounts.
