Donald Trump holds a seven-point edge over Ted Cruz among likely Iowa Republican caucus-goers, according to the results of the latest Monmouth University poll released Wednesday afternoon.

In the survey, conducted largely before Trump announced his boycott of Thursday's debate on Fox News, he surged 11 points from last month in the same poll to 30 percent, while the Texas senator remained static at 23 percent. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio finished in third place with 16 percent, followed by Ben Carson with 10 percent. No other candidates received double-digit support, with 3 percent undecided among those candidates.

I am a bit surprised that Yebito has as much as 4%.

Go Trump!

Trump is the only one running who doesn’t need the money.

All other politicians are owned by rich donors. Politicians in
Washington DC are corrupt(NO ONE can deny this simple fact). Washington dc is a den of corruption and evil , socialist evil.

Trump is the only one that can save America from the slide the media and the politicians have put us in , a slide into the abyss of a hell, called socialism.

How much is the ethanol cartel spending for Trump? You can bet it is in the millions. You think he isn’t sucking up to crony capitalists?

Can we take a moment, before tearing into Trump or Cruz, to reflect on the fact that every perceived ‘front runner’ from last May couldn't even manage to get double digits in one of the last polls before the Iowa Caucuses? That the only one left standing from the GOPe slate is the blocking candidate Rubio?

Wow. Everyone is very welcome to hate Trump's policies, history, actions, but at least send a thank you card for utterly crushing the GOPe field and sending them packing, and likely leading to a Cruz victory in Iowa. I'm sorry, I would have called such a prediction back in May an absolute fantasy. Today, it is a good chance.

Since we now know that Fox had a setup ambush planned, and Cruz just magically launches into a tirade demanding a one one one debate, despite party rules forbidding independent ones, the moment Trump told Fox to pound sand, I wonder if the Cruz people were not in on this from the start?

So you trust the other bought and paid for politicians that need the money? Why does Trump need more money or more of anything at his age?

Only Trump has stood up against the media, China, Mexico ,illegals, Muslims etc. .I've never seen anyone stand up to the media nor china nor Mexico nor to illegals (who has to ALL of these ?No one caused they are all corrupt politicians who are owned and have destroyed this country.

you trust lying politicians . the media has programmed your brain. you ‘re a bot

100% among Trump supporters.

Now, now. That’s only logical, affecting approximately no votes.
