Still higher than Obaminable's at this time in Obaminable's presidency.

And at this time in December 2015 and January 2016. Originally Posted by LexusLover

RealClearPolitics has it at 45.1% for Trump and 47.2% for Obama.

I prefer FiveThrityEight and RealClearPolitics since those 2 sources combine ALL polls on the subject. I'm sure there are individual polls that have Trump ahead of Obama. Rasmussen?

First, you do not know those numbers are a "fact" any more than the numbers on election day were a fact and you are right, you do not know the impact of these polls any more than I or anybody else does.

Yes, we'll know in 10 months but it is interesting that you can't just accept this "fact" and wait. Originally Posted by HedonistForever
