The original 43% was an outlier by any reasonable definition of the word. Subsequent resampling was guaranteed to yield a ~12% point drop. Try again.

Rofl, I was gonna make a thread on this when I google latest poll earlier this morning.  Not so much about Trump dropping in the polls.  But how the media like to jump up on one set of data point when it suit their narrative.

The last time (it was this blatant), this happen was the Rasmussen poll.  And articles after articles harp on this one poll and declare Trump is finished.

lol, now they are doing this one Reuters poll set.  There is a reason why I stop using Reuters.  Though, looking back at their old 2012 polls.  They aren't bad.  But I don't know how to average in something that going on daily.  It like they have a moodswing.  Trump (Clinton) swing way up high and then swing really down low.  Especially over the time period where there is a holidays and they had small sample size.

Though, I will wait and see how Trump gonna spin the 100 black pastors one.  I agree that Trump cross the line many times.  But almost half of the things that the media report is pure nonsense.  Like the recent mocking of the reporter thing.  That is a total media spin move.  Is Trump a person that would mock a disable guy at some point in his life because the guy irk him the wrong way?  lol, I believe so.  But not at that instance, no.

Because polling that includes Thanksgiving is always highly accurate?

This is non-data. The original was a massive outlier that everyone with an IQ over 30 knew was bullsh**t. There is no drop, was a joke.

Trump's not going anywhere before the actual primary voting starts. He'll only start to fall when Kasich wins New Hampshire, and knocks him out in Iowa.

You do know that Iowa comes before New Hampshire right?

He falls 12%... AFTER gaining 15%.

He's still in a better place now than he was a month ago.

Why is this poll not listed in Real Clear Politics ?
Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see it.

Even if Kasich wins NH, he's not going to win Iowa. As already mentioned Iowa comes before NH.

See the rot has set in and not a moment sooner. But is it a trend?  If so, remind me to say "I told you so? "😉 maybe the low information voters don't have the last say after all. I mean maybe folks are waking up to the fact that they don't want that low rent blow-hard as commander in chief, now it is almost voting time. Don't worry I'll be around to say "I told you so!"😊

Like you hope! Not surprising, considering your avatar is a Democrat, so if it's non data, you don't have anything to worry about do you? But if it's not so "non-data" then be afraid, very afraid...the chaos ends on our side of the aisle and we Republicans can put the squeeze on your main "b$#%& 😊

LoL. Just shut up, troll. You've been predicting Trump's downfall for 4 months now.

BTW, You and your emoticons are very annoying.

Trump isn't going anywhere. Remind me to say "I told you so".
