What’s especially striking about Trump’s support is how broad it is: he leads among South Carolina Republicans who describe themselves as “very conservative,” “somewhat conservative,” and “moderate to liberal.” Despite his general secularism, the New York real-estate developer also leads among evangelical Christians, picking up 33% of their support. - - - Swiped from MSNBC site. The Donald. Love it. And Jebbie is sliding down the pole into the abyss. The scary thing is he is closing on Hillary too. CNN has them within 6 points which is close to the margin of error. He isn't going to beat Hillary if he gets the nod. If I got a call from a polling group asking me who I'd want to be the GOP nominee, I'd say...Trump, of course. I am still not sure Hillary is going to be running by next summer but Trump is looking frighteningly stronger than I would expect. He has a year to work on his image and put together a group to tune his foreign policy platform to something a bit more realistic. These guys are all basically just who the people hire are. Considering some of the slugs who have been president, he may not be the worst, even in my lifetime. I still doubt I would ever vote for him. If it came down to Hillary or Trump, I might leave it blank or vote for someone who won't win. (pretty much the same thing) I think Trump is doing a wonderful job of driving the GOP, himself, and the other 2016 Republican POTUS wannabes right over the edge of a cliff and into the abyss of nativism and known-nothing-ism. None of them seem to have anything serious/substantial/useful in the way of programs, policies, or ideas. I love how Trump's behavior is making Jeb Bush look as inept as he apparently is. Trump is an expert at rousing the rabble, and rabble makes up a huge percentage these days of the Republican base. I really like Bernie Sanders. I wish he were 10 years younger. He's a decent guy. I like Joe Biden, too, and for the same reasons...basic decency. I can't say the same for *any* of the announced Republican wannabes. |

I think his popularity has simply been a venting of frustration by many Republicans, some Democrats and Independents. His candidacy has been entertainment so far but basically people can't accept his ego and ideas that have no basis in reality. Big question is if Hillary survives the email thing or her general "untrustworthy" reputation. If she pulls out (probably with a health excuse) it's a new ballgame. Biden will enter the race, likely with Warren as his running mate. Jeb will likely rise to the top as the Republican frontrunner. That could produce a close election. |
