Three new swing state polls out today show Trump in very serious trouble, as he is down by double digits in two polls and down by nine in one:

Not great, but he’ll make up for that by winning New York and California https://t.co/Lmd25AMnXq

Turns out Newt was right yesterday:
“Trump is helping her to win by proving he is more unacceptable than she is.”
Trump’s campaign manager Manafort responded to the polls this morning:
“Well, the dropping poll numbers were expected,” Manafort said. “We feel as though in a week or so the polls are going to even out. We always thought that. We had a bounce — we knew that the Democrats would have a bounce. And now you see in this situation, what looks like an uneven field, but in two weeks we think that’s going to even out if we’re out there on our message.”
The way Trump’s been going, yeah, I expect the polls to be terrible for him too. But unlike Manafort, I don’t expect them to even out because Trump won’t stay on message.
