Billionaire developer Donald Trump is still holding his own in a new Fox News poll, while establishment candidates Jeb Bush, Scott Walker and Marco Rubio are all losing traction.
Trump is continuing to dominate with 25 percent support nationally while retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, is running second at 12 percent. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, known for locking horns with Republican congressional leaders, is third at 10 percent. Those findings mirror recent polls in Iowa and elsewhere.
Bush has place 9 percent for a fourth place finish, droping from 15 percent and second place in a Fox News poll conducted earlier this month, before the first GOP presidential debate.
Walker, the Wisconsin governor, meanwhile, is tied for fifth, at 6 percent — down from 9 percent earlier this month....

It was his witty lines at the end of the debate. That’s all.
He’s not part of the political class and that’s why he, Trump and Fiorina are getting sizable support from the Republican electorate.
I think they think he’s -Johnny.
And yet the antiSemite Chris Wallace lied and said
on FOX “News” that Trump went down in the polls,
more than all the other candidates this morning.
Then the racist Wallace took on the only
black GOP candidate trying to skewer him.
Chris Wallace = racist, antiSemitic liar who
defends the indefensible.
Enough of political business as usual. Enough of political correctness.
Not enough of plain speaking about what’s on the minds if everyday Americans. Enough of mediocrity in America. Enough of GOPe.Help us lift ourselves back to the greatness of the country Obama and lunatic liberals are driven to destroy.
Can’t stand Wallace, Sr or Jr. but especially Jr
I can’t stand Chris Wallace. He is so impressed with himself.
heh
Ben is a good person. People are tired of the establishment backstabbers.
These are three quality men. Three!!!!
The Democrats have some old hasbeens and
one neverwas.
And that smirk permanently on his face!
There's a percentage of Republicans who pine for a black Republican candidate to prove Republicans aren't racist. So they glom onto any black conservative and instantly elevate him to status of presidential candidate that they never would do for a white candidate with the same credentials; Watts, Keyes, Cain, now Carson. It's the conservative version of affirmative action.
Very instructive though to know which of the MSM are owned by the privileged political class.
Ben Carson is a brilliant man who was willing to directly stand up to President Obama and school him in public.
He is also *not* a member of the political class.
Those are very attractive things.
I’m a good person, you’re a good person, there are many good people in this country, but few of them qualify to be our leader. I don’t see anything about Ben Carson that says “president” like I did with Reagan.
I know what you are saying, but to many people, he is the quiet guy that they like and trust.
He would be a great asset to any administration.
