....THE DONALD:

a new national poll became the latest setback for the Republican Party.

Businessman Donald Trump surged into the lead for the 2016
Republican presidential nomination, with almost twice the support of his
closest rival, just as he ignited a new controversy after making
disparaging remarks about Sen. John McCain’s Vietnam War service,
according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

While some recent national polling has shown Trump inching ahead of his
GOP rivals, the Washington Post-ABC News poll was far more dramatic: he
leads with 24% support. That’s a striking figure – in a massive field of
16 candidates, it’s tough for most candidates to even reach double
digits – that no Republican has reached in any Post/ABC polls this year.

Scott Walker is in second with 15% – that’s nine percentage points
behind Trump – followed by Jeb Bush at 12%. No other candidate reached
double digits. Indeed, there are four sitting U.S. senators running for
president – Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, and Rand Paul – and
their combined support is 19%, five points shy of Trump’s total in this
poll.
