[53%!] Trump breaks 50% in national support for the first time [Cruz 22, Kasich 11, Rubio 10]
yougov.com ^ | March 14, 2016 | Kathy Frankovic

In the last two weeks, Republican frontrunner Donald Trump has won more delegates in primaries and caucuses, even while his opponents have launched new attacks and questions have been raised about his supporters. The week’s Economist/YouGov Poll finds Trump still at the top of GOP voters’ preference with a wider lead, while Florida Senator Marco Rubio seems most damaged by the two weeks of attacks and counter-attacks.

Iowa David, on the Rush Limbaugh thread Post #339 you stated that this is not a real poll (of likely GOP voters no less) and instead is a poll of who GOP voters THINKS will be the nominee. I posted that you are FOS. Are you ready to retract your stupid comment yet? Does the fact that Trump nearly triples up Canadian Teddy make your tummy hurt?

I simply want to know why everyone’s blaming Trump for being the front runner.

******************

Yep sounds like they need to be blaming themselves..

Yes, Limbaugh has been slowly revealing himself as a Cruz supporter.

So be it. I don’t listen or watch him anymore and haven’t since the late 90’s. It’s pretty easy to intellectually outgrow talk radio and talk radio can quickly become tedious and constant dose of negativity.

Rush had his years, and probably still does. He did good but then just segued into a cacophony of negative thought.

Yep, the police report is real.

Now that the video has come out showing she fabricated the story—it literally was a hoax—I wonder if she will be charged with filing a false police report.

There’s one thing for sure. If you guys saying it makes it so it would be absolutely true. I can read just as many straws in the wind and say that Trump is going to be beaten badly when it goes down to him and Cruz.

I listen to Rush just to see him get things wrong lately.

Its too bad.

Same with Levin. I listen and am amazed because they are both wrong.

Lemme guess...

Q: If you had to vote for one of the Republican candidates, which would you pick?

A: Trump!

Fine. Now, A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION:

Q: Who would you vote for in the general election (Trump or the Democrat)?

Without that follow-up question, this might as well be “Operation Chaos” 2016.

As long as 65+% of the voting public has a negative opinion of Trump, there’s no way he wins in November.

No way.

I saw Christine Todd Whitman on TV this morning assailing Trump. Wasn’t she the Republican convention presiding chairman with GWB in c. 1996? Do people in NJ still follow Whitman’s “leadership”?

I heard him defending Trump, but not criticizing Cruz. He was given the chance to criticize Cruz, but, basically said it was “the primaries”, so wrote it off.

Amen. What you said. Although that's not a popular viewpoint here on FR.

Yes I will happily retract my statement if I am wrong. I read the data at the bottom of the link. I could have gotten it wrong. Could you show me where in the poll it says 59% of people want/prefer Trump to be president?

I was wondering how rush would handle this..... Totally as expected. He’s a Cruz supporter who can’t get too vocal because he’ll lose slot of his audience forever.

from where, and when did you screen-snap that result?

It says Michigan at the bottom, so was that head-to-head poll just for Michigan?

I can't find the same result shown anywhere on the internet.

I suppose this could have something to do with voter disgust with Cruz and Rubio blaming Trump for the protests in Chicago?

Levin should have quit talk radio and gone on campaigning for the Article V conventions repeal of the 17th.

He’s good in a televised fire fight between left and right but he’s just an talk radio agitator with his whining voice to his I’m smarter than everybody demeanor.
