Reuters: Trump Widens Lead in Poll to 32% After ‘Hard Line Immigration Stance’

by Breitbart News22 Aug 2015

(REUTERS) – Republican Donald Trump is pulling away from the pack in the race for the party’s U.S. presidential nomination, widening his lead over his closest rivals in the past week, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Friday.

Republican voters show no signs they are growing weary of the brash real estate mogul, who has dominated political headlines and the 17-strong Republican presidential field with his tough talk about immigration and insults directed at his political rivals. The candidates are vying to be nominated to represent their party in the November 2016 general election.

Nearly 32 percent of Republicans surveyed online said they backed Trump, up from 24 percent a week earlier, the opinion poll found. Trump had nearly double the support of his closest competitor, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who got 16 percent. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson was third at 8 percent.

Even when Trump was pitted directly in the poll against just his top two competitors, 44 percent backed him. Bush won about 29 percent of respondents, and Carson 25 percent.

Yes, just posted it to the article. Thanks for letting me know.

Thank you for posting it, Judy!

I noticed the article on Reuters says,

". . . Republican strategist Rich Galen said, adding that Trump is a "novelty act" that voters will tire of."

I don't know about you, but I don't think the idea of fixing our gigantic immigration problem is a "novelty" and if I haven't tired of it since before 2006, I don't think I'm going to tire of it any time soon.

I think we're learning through Trump's campaign that these Republican Strategists may be a huge part of our problem.

One of these days the know-it-all elitists will have to stop snickering at Trump and ridiculing his supporters as troglodytes and flyover country, country bumpkins. One of these days they are going to get really afraid of losing their power and the luxuries it provides to them. At that point they are going to get really ugly. Patriots prepare for the gathering storm and tell em "bring it on."

Hat tip to Judy for keeping up to date with this good news.

GO TRUMP, GO!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. ILLEGAL ALIENS GO HOME. AMERICAN JOBS FOR AMERICANS. DOWN WITH THE BILLIONAIRE ELITIST ARISTOCRACY. TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK. AMERICA BELONGS TO AMERICANS!!

There is real hope, and I am very optimistic. It's a good feeling to have. Thank you, Donald J Trump.
