    Is it too much to ask:

    how Trump will make America great again?

    What does great mean?

    Which previous greatness will America rise to?

    And the new WaPo poll finds she crushes him with Stein and Johnson.

    Polls really seem useless at the moment, for so many reasons.

    "Libs think". Always a favorite. And I've never paid much attention to such things, but is it really likely that third-party candidates would combine to haul in 16 percent of the vote? I expect it to be higher than usual this time because of the unlikability of both candidates, but 16 percent seems excessive?

    Her lead shrinks but still exists in one poll when you add third-party.

    This ignores many other polls where that doesn't happen, and ignores that third-party support is usually overstated in pre-convention polling.

    God you guys are flailing. I'm used to the willful ignorance and intellectual dishonesty, but it seems to be amplifying behind the candidate that exemplifies it.

    At this point, you're really expecting YF to post something that doesn't support his #narrative?

    Third parties won't take in 16%.

    Some will hold their nose and vote for Trump or Hillary, but it shows how unlikable she is.

    Running against Donald Trump, she only polls 39%.

    People don't want to vote for her. They will, but they don't want to.

    Hell, I don't want to vote for her. But I sure as hell plan to unless something changes. I'll tell you what "Libs think" -- Trump is dangerous. If another candidate had emerged, I'd certainly have considered changing my mind.

    Oh, and not to upset the #narrative, but in this race, the more I see Hillary, the more I like her. She has, like, policies and knowledge on important issues and stuff. Get back with me on the polling when she starts truly exposing Trump in debates. If she can't mop the floor with him, I'll be truly stunned.

    And I would wager many #Libsthink the same. But I won't speak for them.

    Where are Hillary's "specifics" on any issue?

    It's all talking points and platitudes.
