Ever since Donald Trump burst onto the political scene with his announcement that he would be running for president, his detractors mocked and derided the flamboyant businessman. Many even thought it was a joke or publicity stunt. However, having just officially surpassed the required delegate count and being the Republican Party`s presumptive nominee, he looks to be the one who will take on Hillary Clinton in the presidential election.
The latest polls show that Trump is closing the gap on Clinton with the latest RealClearPolitics average putting her on 43.8% compared to 42.8% for Trump. Should these numbers continue over the summer and into the autumn then we could be in for close run race in November.
