It would be a lot if it were October 2016 and her campaign was stable - but it's not. She is collapsing.
She just lost a 16% lead to a guy no one thought in a million years could even touch her and now he is perched behind her at 6%. What will it be in September, Hillary down by 6%? This would be devastating news to her campaign. Trump may fade away but he is not collapsing like Herman and Michelle did back when they ran and had their early leads. He is sustaining a lead, building on it, and doing damage to Hillary and other republicans along the way.
I still don't think he will get the nomination, I have a gut feeling it's going to be Bush or Carly, I don't know why I just have this feeling.

Remember that Michelle Bachmann was leading the polls at this same time in 2012.
Donald Trump is not getting the Republican nomination. Point blank.
He'll be out of the Republican race by May 2016 - everyone can BOOKMARK ME on that.
Donald getting kicked out and running as an independent is much more plausible.

The only reason I am replying to you on this is if he waits until Febuary-April 2016 he won't be able to run as Independent. There will be no time to get any ground game going to get him on state ballots and it would cost him around $200-300 million to pull it off if he started now. The amount of effort it would take would pull him away from the cameras because he would need to be hands on for much of it. It's not something he wants to do.

are you serious? Obama has been pushing for common sense immigration reform for years!!! what is this pandering nonsense you speak of? The Republicans will not meet him halfway and would soon rather build a WALL and deport every illegal in this country like morons than actually create a cohesive plan to deal with the many illegal immigrants and their legal children in this country.  Trump is an absolute moron and will not win the vote so keep dreaming. |
Obama knows the sticking point with the Republicans, secure the border first then they are willing to talk about reform. There is absolutely no sense in passing any reform or granting anyone any form of amnesty with an open border.

That's not likely to happen until after. Every company he owns he will have to detach himself from. Any board he is on he would have to quit. So his 'empire' would have to be on auto pilot for his term(s). When he is no longer POTUS he will, like all x-Presidents do, capitalize on the status.
I will give my condolences to all americans
