Donald Trump Polls: Lead Increases In Key States As Trump Solidifies Status As Front-Runner

Donald Trump is pulling ahead in polls across key states, building a lead that seem to squash the narrative that his candidacy is fizzling.

This week, new CNN/ORC polls in South Carolina and Nevada showed Trump with growing leads in both states, pushing past what some pundits thought was a plateau in his poll numbers. The real estate mogul has double-digit leads in both states, which could be key to his primary strategy.

Trump leads second-place Ben Carson 38 percent to 22 percent in Nevada, and in South Carolina is beating Carson by a margin of 36 percent to 18 percent. There are no other candidates with double-digit support in either state.

Just about every time when the pollster drill down to single states Trump has leads up to 20% over the next challenger.

There is virtually nothing Trump can say that will cause people to stop supporting him.

The liberals certainly deserve Trump. They hate him. He seems to have the right enemies even if he also has some wrong enemies.

Yea, yea, but Cruz won about 5 "conservative" straw polls today...Or was that one straw poll posted 5 times (in about 30 min. time)?

All the Republican candidates were invited. Sadly (for them) Trump didn't make it so about 750 people showed up in a horse barn. A candidate had to get 25 votes to go to the next whatever...YES 25 VOTES, not 25%.

Ted Cruz won. I'm sure it was a grueling day of campaigning for him.

In other words, a “virtual tie” with the “surging” next challenger. According to the commie media.

If he's a liberal apostate, they probably want to behead him.

When your candidate is consistently in single digits nationally, you’ll latch onto just about anything to have faint hope that they’re relevant. Even if it’s meaningless crap like straw polls or Internet polls on Drudge.

Best Trump quote from his Twitter account:

@HillaryClinton is on the front page of the @nytimes waving to 200 people in New Hampshire. My crowd next door was 5,000 people – no pic!

Yup, no pic of The Donald in New Hampshire! That says it all.

As you know, your guy dropped out before he ran out of money.

And Jeb and Marco are fighting over who gets to be in fifth place!

No one has been able to lay a glove on Trump since the summer.

Trump keeps talking loudly on this legal & illegal immigration nightmare he’s going to waltz into the White House.

Going over to the wrong side certainly would be their idea of unpardonable sin.

It’s funny how some conservatives agonize about Trump not being conservative enough, while liberals are reeling from what, to them, has to look like a glimpse of Medusa.

Hmm, you don’t say. I guess bending down the curve through media masturbation hasn’t had the desired effect.

He’s leading by so much because he is pulling white democrats like crazy.

At this point any country clubber blue bloods from the RNC that attempt to pull off any funny business are going to have a real problem.

Yeah, it means he's grown up. He's forsaken never-never land and is no longer under the influence of the fairies.
