This "article" implies that the poll result came from Gallup . . . .except that Gallup has not published such a thing, as far as I can find. And, as previously noted, no legitimate news source has brought this up. Just a typical right wing BS, unless it can be shown otherwise.

Trumpets believe if they repeat a lie several times it becomes true. Notice how they have ignored every request for sources and continue talking as if It was already proven.
Trumpets don't believe in facts if they did they wouldn't be voting for a crook who has declared bankruptcy 4 times.
What can one attribute to Trump being so popular with Blue Collar voters? I would really like to understand. If Trump can win states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, then the election would be over.
Actually Trump would still lose winning those states. Have you listened to any of his speeches? He sounds like an idiot going on and on about how great he is, which identifies with the most simple minded of Americans.
The native Oregon vote has been red since JFK. It's all the transplants that make it blue. Montana has the same problem. The Blue vote in OR is a product of CA transplants and all the stupid hipsters/hippies that move to Portland or Eugene from various parts of the country. I can guarantee you that the blue collar vote in OR is extremely red and it's becoming even more red.
Which doesn't matter because the blue votes still outnumber the red votes.....and actually those red votes aren't becoming more red in Oregon, they are actually become more Libertarian and are starting to leave behind the Republicans.

Nope. Completely wrong paradigm for the 2016 election.
Large portions of the electorate no longer see themselves as red or blue. That is the domain for the die hard political partisan. It is these swing voters, who will decide the election and any of them who are in the middle class, the trades, union people, etc will not be voting for the DNC.

Frankly, the U.S. has been bankrupt for many years, but the feds just keep printing money so things don't appear so badly to the low info voters. Trump learned from his mistakes, our gov't hasn't.

Simple. Months ago he posed a simple question, something nobody else up to that point was apparently capable of asking:
Ford is going to build a $2.5B plant in Mexico. How does that help us?
With that, he changed my lifelong view on trade. This was not a one off campaign speech. He has repeated it at every campaign stop. He even makes a theatrical presentation of what his phone call to the Ford CEO would look like. You think blue collar workers don't notice that?

I looked all over their Trump stats - couldn't find anything that matched these results either.
The most recent report that they have up regarding Trump is this:
They are conflating blue collar worker with no college degree.
