Donald Trump has lost little support since the first presidential debate, despite days of damaging news stories about his treatment of women, according to a new poll, by Politico Staff (mildly PC).

Hillary Clinton leads Trump 47 percent to 43 percent among likely voters in a four-way race, according to the latest ABC News/Washington Post national poll. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson trails with 5 percent, and the Green Party’s Jill Stein is at 2 percent.

Ann Althouse:

That’s Politico, putting in rather bland terms something that ought to be powerfully alarming to those who cannot abide even the risk that Trump could win the presidency. Why isn’t he losing by a lot more? What explains his pesky resiliency? …

She must be truly loathed. I know she wants to win, but imagine winning like that, knowing you are not wanted.

As for Trump, the battering he’s taking is epic, but he still survives.

Indeed, why isn’t she 50 points ahead?
