Maybe it will inspire our separatists to have a referendum on a Texit.

Trump is regarded by most of the GOP establishment as an interloper and an enemy. If the GOP establishment can do anything to prevent his nomination, they will, and a revolt is increasingly likely as HRC pulls ahead in the national polling.
George Will has left the Republican Party. Just thought you should know.
For months I have been saying mostly good things in this blog about Trump’s powers of persuasion, and mostly bad things about how the Clinton campaign does persuasion. And yet Clinton has a solid lead in the polls, assuming the polls are accurate. How can that be?
The quick answer is that Clinton’s side is totally winning the persuasion battle.
Confused?
Clinton’s side includes more than her campaign team. It also includes pundits, supporters on social media, and the liberal-leaning parts of the mainstream media. While the Clinton campaign itself has been notably weak with its persuasion game, the folks on her side have been viciously effective at branding Trump a crazy racist.
Nothing else in this election matters.…

Those polls are all phony Tom.... Check the "Prediction Markets" on Brexit....

Prediction markets are often wrong a ways out, but as the time frame narrows they tend to get more accurate.
Polls can fail when people don't report what they actually think and feel. Pollsters try to filter that out but not always successfully.
But overall, they are indicative, even though there are upsets.
However, in the US owing to the way voting is configured the final result comes down to a few swing counties in close elections.
It's too early to tell at a this point how close this election is going to be.
BTW, the "crazy racist" meme could skew the polling if it catches on. A lot of people might not be willing to 'fess up to voting for Trump out of political correctness. Most Trump supporters don't seem too concerned with political correctness, but it could conceal swing voters.
The only poll that matters is the one in November. No way Clinton is up by 12 points either. That's MSM BS. Shit even NBC has it as a statistical tie, and it's MSM Central.
At any rate there's an eternity before the election. Wait till the debates and the conventions have played themselves out---and I predict Trump will annihilate Clinton in the debates.. And odds are in this election year that Trump will have an easier go of it than the Leave voters did in the UK.
I've said it before (like way back last summer before all the clueless elites and beltways morons caught to the Trump wave), it's going to be a landslide for Trump. Watch.

It's called the silent majority, Tom. And I'm certain Trump will tamp down the BS "crazy racist" meme when it's all said and done.

The Dem strategy is clear. Either Trump denounces racism or owns it. They will back him into a corner on it because it's a key issue with a significant portion of his base and if he denounces racism he is denouncing them. If he doesn't denounce it loudly and clearly, the Dems and the media also will make him own it.
It's going to be tricky.
Trump can distract by counter-offensive, of course, and HRC has a lot of baggage to attack.
It's going to get messy.
Tom, there's so much at stake here. It needs to get messy--argument wise, that is.
Screw the safe spaces mentality too. Politics is a blood sport. Messy is political theater at its absolute best.
Why all the fuss about the polls? They had it as s very close race -- a toss-up.
