Could this mean with a few good showings at the next couple of debates have Trump running away with it?

No, it means you fail to analyze polls properly.

From the poll you posted:

We update the data each day based on the weighted average of poll responses over the previous week. That means results have less volatility than some other polls, but also means the poll lags somewhat in responding to major events in the campaign.
