Donald Trump is aiming to pull off one of the greatest political comebacks in history. The Republican nominee is rebounding from a summer of repeated stumbles that threatened to undermine his candidacy, underscoring his ability to claw his way back and stay competitive despite controversies that would sink any other politician.
Trump and Hillary Clinton enter the critical post-Labor Day phase of the campaign in a dead heat. A CNN/ORC national poll released on Sept. 6 finds Trump ahead of Clinton by two points – 45 percent to 43 percent – among likely voters. The race is also tight among registered voters, where Clinton has a three point advantage. Both findings are within the margin of error.
