New Poll Shows Trump Taking Lead Despite Lewd Video Release – Media Upset Ensues

A leaked conversation of a presidential candidate bragging about how he sexually assaults women typically would be expected to end someone’s political career… but in this election, nothing can be taken for granted. All political wisdom should be thrown out the window. Some polls showed that Donald Trump took a hit after the release of his conversation with Billy Bush. But a Rasmussen poll actually shows him leading.

The most recent Rasmussen Reports White House Watch national telephone and online survey has Trump with 43% support among likely voters, two points higher than Clinton’s 41%. Clinton still had a four point lead over Trump, 43% to 39%, but that was down five points from Tuesday.

While liberals will try to come up with excuses for why this shouldn’t be trusted, Rasmussen is a well-known and trusted polling outfit. Hillary is still leading, but even bragging about sexual assault can’t tank Trump’s campaign.

If there’s anything we should know by now, it’s that this is not a predictable election season. Anything can happen. Trump’s campaign seems doomed to fail and maybe it is. But Hillary would be dumb to count on an easy ride from here until November 8th.
