Clinton leads Trump by 12% in latest poll

A poll just released by Bloomberg Politics shows Hillary Clinton leading Donald Trump by 49% to 37%.   He has a 27% unfavorable rating among Republicans, while she has a 15% unfavorable rating among Democrats.

Polls this far from the election don't have a lot of reliability.   But looking at the trends do.   Just a week ago, they were essentially tied within the margin of error.   It's hard not to conclude from these numbers that this has been a bad week for Trump.

More specifically, CBS News polled for approval ratings of the responses by Obama, Clinton, and Trump to the Orlando shooting:
                      Approve    Disapprove 
  Obama            44%             34%
  Clinton            36%             34%
  Trump             25%             51%
