Default Trump still *the* man...

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.


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.
