For The First Time, National Support For Trump Rises Above 50%
Zero Hedge ^ | 3-15-2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 03/15/2016 1:15:16 PM PDT by Citizen Zed

With Trump preparing to steamroll the competition in today's all important primaries, where a victory in Florida is now all but assured and only a Kasich challenge in Ohio can potentially spoil the day for the Donald - if Trump wins Florida and Ohio, it's over - earlier today he got some more good news to propell him even further.

First, it was The week’s Economist/YouGov Poll which found Trump remaining at the top of GOP voters’ preference with an ever wider lead, while Florida Senator Marco Rubio seems most damaged by the two weeks of attacks and counter-attacks. In fact, this is the first time Trump has garnered the support of a majority of Republican primary voters nationwide, scoring an all time high of 53% in support at the national level. YouGov's February 24-27 survey marked his previous high, at 44% support.

If DistrusTED and Trump split those voters Trump will run away with the nomination.

Badly - he loses - in all (at RCP) but one poll to Clinton, and in all polls against Bernie.

George Soros and the GOP Establishment will find a way to cheat Trump and elect Hillary.

Not well now. But as we ought to know, no real debating has happened.

I feel kind of sorry for Hillary once the barbs start flying. Donald will make Hillary look like a joke. He’s the alpha dog and she’s something like the omega cat.

We will find out after the convention.

Poll numbers can change, as more undecideds are brought onto our side - maybe even more Dems, if a portion of the GOPe decide to throw in with Trump should he win. With some backing, and some campaigning by others, he will win.

Our side has 20 years of damaging info on Hillary, just waiting to be let loose on her. We’ve been preparing for this for years!

Those who don’t throw in if DJT should be selected, will suffer the consequences in such a scenario.

A silent salute for the help from Soros and Romney. Just goes to show how not everyone with big bucks has the smarts to back them up.

Still it does not look good nationally - his approval ratings suck - so do Hillary’s but Dems don’t care as long as it is a Democrat.

I think I’ll be in the ‘Anyone but Hillary/Bernie’ camp but there are not a few FReepers who will not vote if Trump/Cruz are not the candidate or so they have claimed.

The Chicago riots last Friday may be pushing Trump to a higher level.

Perhaps you missed the question as your reply seeds to address something else.
