Donald Trump leads another poll, but he won’t be bragging about this one
Marketwatch ^ | 1/31/2016 | Shawn Langlois

The latest poll numbers are in, and Donald Trump, once again, is the clear leader. But don't expect the "You're fired" mogul to be tweeting out these results anytime soon.

According to Gallup, most of Americans don't like him. In fact, three out of every five people polled view the Donald unfavorably. That's the worst tally since Gallup began tracking the data back in 1992. George H.W. Bush and his 57% can rest easy, having given up that dubious distinction.

If you take a look at the numbers Trump and his supporters have been so visceral to Cruz, Rubio, Carson supporters that it has carried over in to such a dislike that Trump is unlikely to gain support from them even should their candidate drop out. You can’t burn bridges like that and expect to win.

A businessman like Trump could plausibly explain why this kind of free is a bad idea.

Cruz would go into theoretical pieties and the audience would fall asleep.

LOL

If he is the nominee, and the Democrats spend a billion dollars defaming him

Trump's problem is that even the truth looks pretty bad, before any spice is added.

Doesn’t matter to Trump voters. They refuse to understand his high negatives.

Or even actually hear what he is saying on positions. What was hugely fun in the beginning watching him give it to the MSM is becoming scary because people are so caught up in the personality they are not listening to him they just think they know what he stands for and it is far from his real positions.

Trump gave the GOPe everything they wanted in the last two weeks....Rubio.

Just as Romney innoculated Obama from from the health care issue, Trump would innoculate Clinton from Bill’s womanizing, and her bimbo intimidation.

It is a non issue unless Trump is the one bringing up the issue....no other gentleman Republican is going to play it crass. That is why Trump is popular.

Looks like we will divert ourselves by staying on the petty side and ignoring the meat of the race and the import of going the distance....we are so pathetic it makes my eyes water.

Yes, it's pretty sad. Many Trump supporters (including myself) were congratulating Ted Cruz last night. I wish everybody could show a little class here as ultimately, we are all on the same side and I would imagine most of us would enthusiastically support the eventual nominee.

Cruz won fair and square last night. The delegate count makes it basically a three-way tie between Cruz, Trump and Rubio.

Now let's move on to New Hampshire and may the best guy win.

Put things in the proper context.

Well said.

“I wish everybody could show a little class here as ultimately, we are all on the same side and I would imagine most of us would enthusiastically support the eventual nominee.”

Trouble is that we have a number of Rowe and Soros trolls posting here. All they do is trash Republican candidates. All. The. Time. They never criticize Obuma, the democrats, Jeb or Rubio. Not a word. It’s trash our leading candidates constantly. We have to be aware that both Rowe and Soros have hired PR firms to create chaos and discontent among conservatives.
