There are many demographic fault lines emerging in this year’s presidential campaign, but few are deeper than the division among likely voters based on educational attainment.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign should be reeling from two unflattering news stories this week that play right in Donald Trump’s hands.

Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by only 3 points in the latest national survey from the conservative-leaning polling outlet Rasmussen.

Clinton takes 43 percent support while Trump has 40 percent, with Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson taking 8 percent and Green Party nominee Jill Stein at 2 percent.

During February’s Democratic primary debate, Hillary Clinton tactfully parried Bernie Sanders’s attacks on her relationship with Henry Kissinger, who he called “one of the most destructive secretaries of state of the modern era.” Now, six months later, Clinton has reached out to Kissinger and a growing number of Republicans disdained by progressives who she hopes will endorse her over Republican Donald Trump.
