Whatever gains Donald Trump made in the past few weeks, he almost certainly lost them this week https://t.co/FZezrMcYUH pic.twitter.com/BhVtPFuZWO

***Shakes Magic 8 Ball***

“Will Donald Trump’s poll numbers go down?”

***Magic 8 Ball settles on an answer***

“Most likely”

Although some are questioning if “data” would be better for an article like this:

Eff data we say! Go with the gut!

No, no. You only get to do “analysis” at CNN if you say things with zero evidence and repeatedly turn up wrong.

Cillizza defended himself, which you’d expect:

And Emily Miller makes a great point: How many times do we have to hear that this is the end of Donald Trump?

I cannot count the number of cable segments I did in June 2016 on the “end of @realDonaldTrump candidacy “.
