You didn’t think that the Donald was going to pay a price for insulting John McCain, did you?

Trump went after McCain on July 19. He was sitting a half-point behind Jeb Bush in the RealClear average that day-15.0 to 15.5. After July 19, Trump’s arrow-which was already pointing upwards-went vertical. Today he’s at 18.2. The only person hurt by Trump insulting American POWs was Jeb!, whose number has dipped to 13.7.
