Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are deadlocked in the crucial swing states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida, according to new polls showing the presumptive Republican presidential nominee gaining strength on his Democratic rival because of doubts about her honesty.

Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson said Donald Trump says "racist" things and should be disqualified from becoming president for saying that he is "looking at" replacing employees of the Transportation Security Administration who are Muslim and wear hijabs. "He has said 100 things that would disqualify anyone else from running for president but doesn't seem to affect him," he told CNN's Brianna Keilar in an interview aired Sunday on "State of the Union."
Is the window closing on Bernie Sanders's moment? A number of folks, your humble blogger included , have suggested as much. We've argued that with Democrats seeming to unite behind Hillary Clinton, it's possible that the longer Sanders withholds his endorsement for her in the quest to make the party platform more progressive, the less leverage he'll end up having.
Happy Social Media Day, everyone! At first we were worried when Donald Trump's live events started to lose their bombast ; lately, the @realDonaldTrump Twitter account is looking a bit too slick as well. Let's have a 140-character moment of silence for what once was.

Opposition to Donald Trump among Republicans and distaste for Hillary Clinton among Bernie Sanders supporters could create an opportunity for the Libertarian Party, the only third-party with general election ballot access in all 50 states.

Bill Weld, made their case at a CNN town hall hosted by Chris Cuomo.
