Donald Trump has surged into first place in this month’s Breitbart Primary, and it is the first time the businessman has taken the top spot since the Breitbart Primary launched two months ago.

As of August 19, Trump has 33.7% of the vote, followed by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 96% , who won the Breitbart Primary in June and July, with 31.10%. Dr. Ben Carson, who overtook Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker in last month’s Breitbart Primary for third place, is still in third place with 7.81%. Carly Fiorina, who has gained momentum since winning the so-called “happy hour” debate, is now in fourth place with 6.3%. Walker is fading–he is now in fifth place with 4.6%.

Another headache for Karl Rove and Mata Hari

33.7% of the vote, followed by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 96%

Did you make a boo boo or was that intentional?

[Robert DeLong]

BTW, that 96% is Ted Cruz’s Liberty Score voting record.

I said Trump would be at 34% after the debate. It took two weeks, but he made it. And the debates were more of an attack session than policy discussion.

So now the question is what's next. The CNN debate isn't until Sept 16. And I saw something about Trump demanding CNN donate $10M to charities to get him to participate. Possibilities leading up to next debate:

• Trump slowly draws from other candidates as supporters of marginal candidates look for someone else to support. + 1 to +5
• Trump responds to a new event faster and smarter than other candidates +2 to +5.
• Trump lays out more policies on jobs or Obamacare +3 to +7

“Walker is fading–he is now in fifth place with 4.6%.”

Hmmm, seems like his Me Too nonsense isn’t going to work.

Don’t forget Common Core. If Trump comes out with a position paper about getting the feds out of public school education +5 at least.

[DannyTN]

Good point. He could do that on a number of things. After the EPA spill he said that should have been handled locally. So a policy on redefining and limiting the EPA's mission with a shift of some responsibilities to locals could be a significant boost.

• Common Core/Education
• EPA
• Jobs
• Trade Policy
• Healthcare
• Energy
• Protection of Religious liberties
• etc.

  Donald could set the agenda every 2 weeks to 6 weeks with a new policy and he would continue to dominate the news.

“Donald WILL set the agenda every 2 weeks to 6 weeks with a new policy and he would continue to dominate the news.”

There, fixed it! The morons in the MSM can’t help themselves in their non-stop coverage ( “because don’t you know we’re going to cause his campaign to collapse”), so Trump will have essentially “free media” for the rest of the entire campaign. The “other candidates” from both parties are going to have to pay dearly for air time. My bet is that the only thing that will get him off the air is a Hillary Perp Walk!
