Trump polled at 35 percent among Republican primary voters.
The poll was conducted among national registered voters, 431 of whom were Republican primary voters, from Dec. 4-8. The margin of error for Republican voters was 6 percentage points.
Well, if nothing else we know for sure somewhere in the country there are 151 people that are certified idiots.
Trump = 35
Cruz = 16
Carson =13
64% of the GOP Primary Voter. Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Ben Carson collectively represent a pretty large majority of the base of the GOP. How sad. On many levels, how scary and deranged.
Trump is indeed a āunifierā ā he has unified bigots from all walks of life to march under his fascist banner.
Please let this shitstain of a human be the GOP nominee in 2016. I truly believe that an ignominious landslide defeat is the only way of bringing the GOP back into the realm of reality, if it isntā already too late.
Drunks and addicts have dozens of epiphanies throughout their life, only to die of their disease anyway. The GOP wonāt put down the needle; hate, fear and bigotry are too intoxicating a brew for them to resist.
Maybe they can cut off the offending armā¦
Well weāre getting there. Now, just yesterday Israelās leadership told Trump to fuck off. Yupā¦Israelā¦the only country in the world that matters. The foreign policy gate valve for all things Conservativeā¦Israel. But Iāll bet the Israel thing is GOPāer bullshit like a āsupport the troopsā bumper sticker. Itās something your supposed to pretend. So lets wait for the next poll and see if the outrage that should happen if Israel is all itās made out to beā¦does and drops Trump. Ill bet no because it was all bullshit.
Iāll supply the saw.
I wonāt bet against you.
This is great news for the Trump campaign and also for Rinse Pubis and the Republican National Committee. All of the structural reforms and the outreach that Rinse put in place to avoid a repeat of Mitt Romneyās disastrous presidential campaign have been a resounding success.
Trump is being outspent nearly 250:1 by the corporate kleptocrats in the Republican party but is solidifying his lead.
Finally, John Bush ĀæJeb?'s campaign and his donors must also be excited by the poll results. John has maintained traction on the consistently downward spiral he has found since August. His great energy, his Sarah Palin glasses, his pro-gun massacre comments about āstuff happensā and his innovative ideas to only let christian immigrants into the United States have really inspired voters.
Word.
Iāve never believed Americaās social conservatives give a ratās ass about Israel or the Jewish people ā except in their Armageddon fantasies. Jews are going to Hell alongside us gays, socialists, atheists, Muslims, Buddhists, etc., etc. If Trumpās numbers wobble down more than two percentage points because Netanyahuās pronouncement, Iāll be surprised.
If he is the nominee, I wonder if it would be a landslide. I know far too many Republicans who Iām convinced would vote for him, even though they think heās an embarrassment and ānot a real Republican,ā because staying home or voting for the Democrat would be a much more egregious sin.
Great, so will this finally force that allegedly āliberalā media to stop being so dumbfounded and shocked by what Trump himself believes that makes him sound like a bigoted fascist, and finally start to focus on the much scarier fact that a very large chunk of republican voters seem to be more than willing to support a bigoted fascist?

JEB! 3% ?
Your post, and its inherent logic, should not only be our Operative Assumption, but it should be as cemented as a Democratic Avatar.
I think if he is the nominee, a good portion of the GOP base (evangelicals for sure) will stay home. With a nominee like Hillary, the Dem base will be motivated, especially against a GOP nominee like Trump or Cruz. Honestly, Rubio is the one that has me worried.
Someone needs to put the JEB! campaign out of its misery.
The media has known the exact percentage of bigoted racists in the United States for many years. The MSM needs their dollars, too.
