MORNING JOE: Trump still soars in new tracking poll

MSNBC ^ | September 22, 2015 | Morning Joe

[conservative98]

Donald Trump stands at 32 percent favorability right now, according to the latest Morning Consult tracking poll. Hugh Hewitt joins Morning Joe to discuss.

[Cboldt]

Jeb is considering rescuing the Democrat Party from it’s Hillary/Sanders/Biden problem.

[ripnbang]

The only one left I even remotely fear is Rubio.

Watch...he’s the new Kasich/Carson/Fiorina flavor of the day for the media. Young, Hispanic, articulate, great on foreign policy (how did that happen, short career in Florida legislature and a few years as a Senator with his signature issue siding with the amnesty express?)...just watch.

"Name someone you would date if he was single"

(the survey always has one odd answer)

Donald Trump stands at 32 percent favorability right now

They lie, as usual. "Favorability" is the percentage that approve of him. The reported number is the percentage for whom Trump is the first choice. His favorability is actually in the 50% to 60% range.

>>who the heck is voting for Jeb? Sheesh<<

His family and the GOPe.

Well, yeah, except they tried that early and he flopped. I really thought he was out before the first debate. But you are right-—they are running out of kamikazes to send vs. Trump.

Keep telling yourself that all those potential Trump voters are in reality Cruz supporters. Did it ever occur to you that Trump’s support is legit and not made up of Cruz supporters who are inflating his poll numbers?

Not what I posted. Just know that at least two Cruz supporters polled answered "Trump". Suppose there are one or two more like me in Trump's polling numbers? Perhaps you know better.

Either way, what you or I think about Trump's numbers NOW may be not relevant next year come actual primary voting time.

[JAKraig]

Cruz can.

I love what Trump is doing right now, but he needs to how out before the primaries. I’ll not vote for him. Walker and Cruz are the only ones that will get my vote, and only one is still running. I

Trump isn't my man but if he wins the primary I will certainly vote for him. Mitt Romney was not my man but I voted for him in the general. Perhaps if you would have we would not now have Obama. guess you can say "well if we would have had Romney it would have been the same thing!" It wouldn't have been the same thing. Perhaps it wouldn't be good or great but it wouldn't be what we have now. Maybe, just maybe if Trump is elected we will change directions. That would be a good start.

This idea that if you can't get your way is childish. Get what you can and live with it.

>>Ted Cruz:
WE’RE NUMBER 6!, WE’RE NUMBER 6!, WE’RE NUMBER 6!, WE’RE NUMBER 6!, WE’RE NUMBER 6!<<

Sadly, I predict Cruz to be the next to bow out.

Christie is such a monumental idiot he will stay in until the convention.

Fiorina is vying for Veep (and would be a good choice for that). She will time her exit accordingly.

[N. Theknow]

Maybe he got a bump from the Walker (classless) exit.

True, true. But they’ll probably recycle (you know, the environment any everything...) and try each candidate again. How long before you think the Romney drums starting beating again? That was out there a few weeks ago but has been quiet. Maybe Pawlenty? :)

[miss marmelstein]

He lost Joe’s vote because he didn’t endorse a muslim for prez. Joe is such a good man.

[Psalm 144]

We differ on the man but agree on the math.

I wonder what you are seeing and knowing about this "bowing out next" that is hidden from ALL Cruz supporters. Got an inside tip?

I love what Trump is doing right now, but he needs to bow out before the primaries.

Like you, I am (or was) a Walker-Cruz voter. That being said, I have no desire to see him bow out before the primaries. Why in the world would he if he carries this lead until then?

Ask the Walker supporters.

[LS]

They have really only three months. If they haven’t knocked Trump’s numbers down by mid-Jan, he will roll up a delegate sweep by Super Tuesday that they can’t stop. Just look at where most of the early primaries/caucuses are-—states where Trump is leading “huge.”

[kenmcg]

“who the heck is voting for Jeb? Sheesh”

Big money, US chamber of Commerce etc. who can by him. He didn’t get that $100 million from ordinary folks.

[kanawa]

What will you do if Trump chooses Cruz as his VP?
