So, how have we not had any polls this weekend? I feel like this should have been prime time for tons of post debate polls, but I can barely remember any

Also what are the chance Donnie passed on his crazy genes to his sons(Especially the 10 year old, holy lovely having kids after 40 already has elevated risk, never mind 60)?

It's Donnie who says that Eric is 6'6".

Presumably he knows the height of his own son.

It's definitely both which is why those before/after President shots always feel disingenuous to me.

Not really weird, I think. Most everyone in this country knows the wealthy are corrupt and enjoy all sorts of tax breaks, but they don't like being reminded of it. This is a one-two punch of Trump losing almost a billion dollars and not paying taxes for twenty years, both of which are awful optics for Trump.

Also, remember that Trump's big red button is his money. He can excuse most things if he tries, but he always goes ape when someone goes after his finances and especially any suggestion that he's ever lost money or didn't earn his money.

It's all this and more.

Trump, is also advocated more tax cuts for the rich. He's suggesting he needs tax breaks when he already pays little or nothing.

He wants to be able to fire a few of his accountants and still not have to pay any taxes

Trump will cut taxes so hard that the IRS will be paying him.

Arguably unethical, but that being said, it's one thing to "not pay any taxes", and entirely different thing to "not pay taxes because you utterly suck at business when your entire image is built around it."

Hillary Clinton is not assured a victory but at the moment she is willing in almost every poll and IS winning in every poll actually worth a drat, despite the fact a lot haven't yet adjusted for the post-debate. In addition Donald Trump has had what may be one of the worst weeks any political candidate has ever had short of death or actual arrest. Donald Trump has terrible ground game and is literally relying on Wikileaks to drop some sort of SECRET DOOM in order to have any significant chance to reversing the narrative.

There are 2.5 debates to go so there's always room for things to shift but at the moment things are very much in HIllary Clinton's favor and there is nothing anyone can do to make them more in her favor.

I think Hillary's going to win and win handily, but she's ahead by about 5 points, not 30. Polls where she's losing do exist. This is far from locked down.

Edit: The person I was quoting beat me to my own point...

Another thing that's been bugging me: Trump and his minions keep saying that he released some of financial documents that allegedly show more information that tax returns would. If that's the case, then what would be the worry about releasing his tax returns?
