Despite - or maybe because of - the controversies swirling around him,
Donald Trump continues to hold the loyalties of about 1 in 5 Republican voters, according to two new polls that show him still in the top position in the field of GOP presidential hopefuls. A new Reuters/Ipsos poll released Monday afternoon showed Trump with 24% of the GOP vote -- the same level he had before Thursday's first Republican debate. That's roughly the same level of support Trump got in an online poll for NBC conducted by Survey Monkey, the Internet survey company. In the Reuters poll, Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor, came in second, at 12%, down several points from his standing before the debate. The other candidates in the 17-person GOP field were all at 8 points or less. *Bush fared more poorly in the NBC poll, holding support in the single digits.* Polls that follow quickly after an event such as a debate often prove evanescent, so Trump's standing could well change as more organizations take the temperature of potential voters. The data so far indicate that he is holding onto his supporters but also that he has not picked up any additional support. The Reuters poll showed Hillary Rodham Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee, beating Trump or any of the potential GOP candidates, all by roughly the same margins, something other recent surveys have shown. http://tinyurl.com/nsgaww4 - - - - SNERK At this point, I'm not sure Jeb Bush could convince Jeb Bush to vote for Jeb Bush. |

That really translates to about 10% of the voting population and not likely to rise much as the other candidates drop out.. If it wasn't such a ratings getter, the networks would blow it off as what it is, people who are simply disgusted with the whole political process. |

Is she going to follow the lead of her New York buddy Schumer and blow up the Iran deal? Will she reengage in Afghanistan? Will she intensify the Iraq/Syria war? Does she even have a plan to deal with our crushing debt problem,, public and private? What about jobs? So far all we seem to know about her is that she is named "Clinton", she has tits and she can't be trusted. that other poll you seem to ignore. http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/17/politi...n-trustworthy/ |

For at least the 10th time, that it "translates to about 10% of the voting population," and all your other "take-aways" about what you think is insigificant, doesn't matter. I don't expect Trump to get the nomination, but for sure it would please me if he did. What matters is that Trump, Huckabee, Cruz, Rubio, et al, are playing to the far right, their "efforts" are being videotaped, they are hurting the GOP's chances in the general, et cetera, and I don't think the lackluster, foot-in-mouth performances of Jeb are going to enable him to pull the party's ashes out of the fire. ... and the majority of Americans polled think Hillary is untrustworthy so we are really ****ed aren't we? Well, now that Trump explained the 'wherever', I feel much better about the whole thing. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |
