Fox News Poll: New high for Trump, new low for Clinton
Fox News ^ | August 3, 2015 | Dana Blanton

Posted on 08/03/2015 3:28:07 PM PDT by Zakeet

Trump receives the backing of 26 percent of self-identified Republican primary voters -- up from 18 percent in mid-July and 11 percent a month ago. That’s not only the highest level of support for Trump, but it’s also the highest any GOP candidate has received since the Fox poll began asking the question in December 2013.

Switching to the Democratic side, Clinton is still the favorite among self-identified Democratic primary voters. She receives 51 percent while Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders comes in at 22 percent. Yet that is Clinton’s worst showing -- and Sanders’ best. Support for Clinton was 59 percent two weeks ago, 61 percent a month ago -- and has been as high as 63 percent in the months since Sanders entered the race. Vice President Joe Biden, who is said to be considering a run, sits at 13 percent support.

By an 18-point margin, Republican primary voters (74 percent) are more likely than their Democratic counterparts (56 percent) to be extremely or very interested in the 2016 election.

Name recognition and "none of those damn establishment twits" are pulling ahead.

We really need a viable Dem opponent for Hillary.

Otherwise they Op Chaos Bush to the R nomination, where he demonstrates the same ability to lose as McLame and Mediocre Mitt.

I am surprised, by all the FR people on here saying how bad Fox is now, would admit to a poll like this...

I don’t have cable so I won’t be watching the debate, but I hope Trump and Cruz wipe the rest of them off stage...

Except it’s right in line with every other poll out there, and a little behind a couple. So, FOX is apparently getting real.

Expect MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD from the Democrats.

The Pretorian U.S. court system--including the Pretorian Supreme Court--will be complicit.

The Pretorian Press will be also.

It will be part of a coup d'etat well underway in the U.S.

If it succeeds, the coup d'etat will have been accomplished.

Extremely tight security is essential for Trump, especially as he draws nearer to election to the Presidency.

If the coup d'etat can be aborted, America can be saved. The stakes are that high.

We won’t have many dropping out until after the Florida Primary. About 7 months away.

The insane thing is that both Bush and Clinton aren’t smart enough to realize that everybody hates them.

I mean you would think SHRILLARY! would have got a clue after some communist faggot from Kenya knocked her out 8 years ago but she keeps coming back for more like a punch drunk washed out Rocky Balboa.

Bush thinks he lives in England and is next in line for the Throne.

He is a real maniac.

There are candidates who will run out of money, although Jeb can prop up some strategically.

The real question is who the dropout candidates endorse. Most will endorse Jeb or whichever RINO is chosen to replace the faltered Jeb. Those candidates will have revealed their true colors.

For example, the 2008 cycle saw Huckabee, Giuliani, and Thompson endorse McCain when they dropped out.

The media did their best, but it didn’t turn out the way they wanted. They’re going to have to create a “racist” charge for Trump and start saying “first woman president “ a lot.

We don’t have cable, either. Watched it online in 2012. If we can’t get it with an antenna on a network station, we’ll be watching online this time, too. Surely, there will be a livestream. I’m sure FRiends will post a link. I will, too.

We will not be missing this debate, no matter what.
