Trump leads Clinton amongst independents. He is having trouble with the R base now because of the whining by Bush, Cruz, Kasich, et al. Clinton is ahead because the Ds stick together.
Leading the with the independent voters tells you that he is winning the moderate vote.
The issues is that no strong Conservative ran for the office. That left the door open for Trump. So, now there are two choices. Clinton, who will do her best to continue working with Soros, DSA, and CPUSA to effectively put an end to the American way of life. So, with her, there is 0 chance of success. With Trump, there is a chance of success. Unfortunately, those are the only 2 choices at this time. The fault for that lies with the GOP establishment for failing to put up a strong Conservative option. They insist on the RINO option, which has failed the last 2 elections against a weak opponent.
