Morning Consult released its latest national poll Friday, and the news is all good for Donald Trump, whose support jumped from 38% last week to 44% support today. That puts The Donald a full +27 points ahead of second place Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), who enjoys 17% support, which is exactly where he sat last week.
Ben Carson and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) are tied for 3rd place at 10%.
Carson jumped just +1 point since last week.
Rubio, however, lost -5 points — a third of his support.
Jeb Bush jumped from 6% to 8%. John Kasich doubled his support from 2% to 4%.

Cruznadians say national polling means nothing in a place like SC, which is full of Religious=CruzVoter equations.
Lets let them have their rather iffy equation and ask:
If these national polling results are real, where can they realistically be a big factor in state contests?
Here is a list of states that MUST be responsive to the national Trump blowout, leaving out all Southern States (letting the Cruznadians have their Religious=CruzVoter pseudo-equation in the South), and only looking to the end of March, not beyond.
These states MUST be big Trump wins:
Nevada Feb 20
Alaska Mar 1
Colorado Mar 1
Massachusetts Mar 1
Minnesota Mar 1
Oklahoma Mar 1
Tennessee Mar 1
Vermont Mar 1
Virgina Mar 1
Kansas Mar 5
Maine Mar 5
Hawaii Mar 8
Idaho Mar 8
Michigan Mar 8
DC Mar 12
Florida Mar 15
Illinois Mar 15
Missouri Mar 15
Ohio Mar 15
Arizona Mar 22
Utah Mar 22
I've been doing genealogy for 60+ years. I've found that we pass on not just our hair/eye color and noses - but out talents and thought processes.
Rogues beget Rogues.
Here's their common ancestor: the first Duke and Duchess of Lancaster are their 18th great grandparents. John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster, married Katherine Swynford, Duchess of Lancaster
We’re all related if you go back far enough. What have you found about Cruz and Clinton?
Nice try, but snark is not whine. If you had half a brain you’d be able to see the difference, but - then again - you *are* a Trump supporter, so I suppose you don’t even have half a brain...
Every. Single. One.
I live in the heart of the Carolina Bible Belt. I can tell you that my Southern Baptist neighbors:
A: Resent the term “Evangelicals.”
B: Don’t like politicians who wrap themselves in religion.
C: Are not interested in electing a Sunday School teacher for President. Instead they want someone who will go to Washington DC and kick ass and take names.
That does not qualify as an answer.
No, you’re whining, there’s no doubt about it.
It’s understandable, since it’s really all you’ve got.
There there. You go back to watching “Ow, My Balls” and ‘bating before you get hurt. This is a forum for thinking adults.
Yeah, but he’s plateaued at 44%.
He’s in series trouble.
Wow. It seems you don’t like this poll. We understand.
Sure it does. I’ll tell you what: you name an issue where Trump HASN’T flip-flopped on whenever the opportunity to advance his personal agenda required it.
Go ahead. I’ll wait.
Trump hits 45% nationally even if the establishment coalesces on a candidate, he’s going to win the nomination. At that point the math becomes pretty much impossible for an establishment candidate to win.
Nope. I sure don’t. But I guess it was inevitable that I would eventually watch The United States turn into a real life Idiocracy. Who *would* like watching that happen?
Oh... right... the idiots...
Check.
Trump leads Cruz by 20%.
Poll: Alabama is the Most Conservative State
Poll: Trump leads GOP field in Alabama
These two articles are from the past 2 weeks; AFTER Iowa, but BEFORE New Hampshire.
If Trump is 20 points ahead of Cruz in the MOST conservative state, how does Cruz compete?
Alabama votes on Super Tuesday, which is 17 days from now.
Can Cruz overtake him here (in Alabama)? Not from the people I talk to. They're pumped! 2009 TEA party level frenzy.
Go, Jeb, go! Jeb is exactly where he wants and deserves to be, and he's ready to make his move. By December, his support might reach 10%!
WOOHOO!!! GO.TRUMP.GO!!!
GO!
