Earlier today Gallup released a poll showing that Trump is the most heavily favored candidate (63% Approval Rating) amid Republicans.
A devastating defeat for the establishment GOP (GOPe) who are seeking to push their preferred candidate Jeb Bush. Such substantive favorable opinion of candidate Trump puts the RNC/GOPe in a difficult position as they plot to begin their collective assault against the unpalatable frontrunner.
But tonight the news for the Vichy Republican crowd is infinite degrees worse. As they plot the best course of Trump’s annihilation – national polls now show Donald Trump defeating every Democrat party candidate by substantial margins.
(Via Survey USA) In an election for President of the United States, today, Labor Day, business provocateur Donald Trump narrowly defeats Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Al Gore, in head-to-head matchups, according to nationwide polling conducted by SurveyUSA.
According to a survey of all Americans – Today it’s:
* Trump 45%, Clinton 40%. (There is a 20-point Gender Gap; Trump leads by 18 points among seniors.)
* Trump 44%, Sanders 40%. (Trump leads by 10 among independents and by 6 among moderates.)
* Trump 44%, Biden 42%. (Trump leads by 10 among the best educated; Biden leads by 17 among the least educated.)
* Trump 44%, Gore 41%. (Trump leads by 12 among men and by 18 among voters age 50+.)
Among a subset of registered voters who tell SurveyUSA that they pay “a lot” of attention to politics, the scale tilts to the right. The poll results are even more devastating amid those who are registered voters: Today it’s:
* Trump 54%, Clinton 36%.
* Trump 53%, Sanders 39%.
* Trump 53%, Biden 37%.
* Trump 54%, Gore 36%.
That’s almost a twenty point margin for victory for Trump against Hillary Clinton with registered voters – BOOM !
While this is devastating news for the National Republican Committee, for those who research beyond the media narrative these results do not come as a surprise. The Hillary VS Trump polling numbers (general population) above are confirmation of prior polling (August) which reflected an almost identical outcome:
Obviously this visible and statistical reality cuts the preferred media narrative to shreds. These types of polling results are what Frank Luntz was referring to when he said his legs were wobbling after seeing how broad the Donald Trump support was. Luntz was apoplectic against the backdrop of a citizenry refusing to be swayed by media influence.
Despite an avalanche of MSM effort to paint candidate Trump as a vulgarian racist who hates Mexican Latinos, 59% of Americans support Donald Trump’s most controversial aspect within his immigration reform proposals, his willingness for forced deportation.
Again and again, in both polls and action, the broad U.S. electorate is showing full-throated support for Donald Trump and his policy proposals.
The RNC and the DNC in combination with the entire legacy media complex are facing a paradigm shift in their traditional ability to influence election outcomes. They have tried to ridicule Trump, and it hasn’t worked. They’ve tried to isolate Trump by dividing the electorate, it hasn’t worked. They’ve tried to marginalize Trump by dismissing his campaign validity – again, it hasn’t worked.
This in-your-face reality presents a serious problem for the media and professional political parties. With this much visible support -and it just keeps growing- how does the media and the professional political apparatus stop Trump from victory?
For the professional political class the entire risk/reward dynamic is now fraught with additional variables. If they continue to attack Trump they run the risk of making themselves even more visibly irrelevant – ergo each continued attack becomes even less impactful. Yet, if they don’t attack Trump their very existence is at risk…..
How will they possibly find a solution?
Oh my. This explains why Rove and his whiteboard are AWOL.
Rove cannot point out on his whiteboard that Trump’s unfavorable
numbers are high anymore.
What is depressing is that lying, addled Alzheimer’s Hag pulls 49%.
Every argument against Trump is gone, except for questions about his conservatism. The remaining focus needs to be...can we get him to commit to our side’s issues and push true conservative solutions. If he signs on, he may be the one to ride to victory. Unbelievably so, I must add. Could not have predicted this.
Actually Rove had the whiteboard out and tried to say that this was not great news for Trump because he’s 100% known and has a fav/unfav ratio of +30. Whereas Carson is at +60 and is still not well known. Or some such garbage.
What the turd fails to mention is that the theory actually helps Trumps case. As Carson has gotten 0% of lib and RINo media negative coverage. Those numbers would plummet if he got even a ounce of the trashing Trump has incoming on a daily basis. Meanwhile trumps numbers increase when the media attacks him.
But, but, but, ¡Yeb! is the “electable” one.........
The Cheap Labor Express is crapping their pants.
Only against Bush. lol
I just donated to Ted Cruz this AM, but I am believing that more and more, this race is going to be an Ace of Hearts Trump over the evil queen of spades.
Rove is always moving the goalposts.
I hate the fat bas$ard.
And spends 400 million dollars of other people’s money doing it!
(Picking losers)
How can this possibly be without the Hispanic vote? You must have the Illegal Aliens to win.
Pray America is waking
Yep. The only solution left for the RATs and GOPe’s is the Fort Marcy Park
Solution.
The other side has pushed Trump so far that I think he’s a safe conservative. Besides that, there won’t be a country to save if that impressive, huge, impenetrable, wonderful wall is not built.
Everyone pump the brakes, please! While these numbers are encouraging, whoever the Democrat nominee is has a 246-0 head start in electoral votes every day from now to election day. Can Trump win in Kalifornia? What about Illinois? New York is a possibility. What I want to see is state-by-state polling that shows Trump competitive/possibly winning in deep blue traditionally Dem states. That’s when I do my happy dance!
Signing the pledge forced the other candidates to commit to supporting Trump. Did you see Jeb's face when he was asked by a reporter if he'd support Trump as the nominee. He looked really unhappy when he said he would.
I think not Alzheimer’s but that fall and apparently other falls could well have been stroke induced which can lead to some of the same manifestations as Alzheimers’. She had a “concussion,” also. Were she to be President she would be the most obvious puppet. She could not function otherwise.
