Poll: Trump Reaches 50 Percent Support Nationally for the First Time
NBC News ^ | APR 26 2016 | HANNAH HARTIG, JOHN LAPINSKI and STEPHANIE PSYLLOS

Posted on 04/26/2016 3:45:11 AM PDT by Mensius

Donald Trump has reached 50 percent support from Republicans and Republican-leaners nationally for the first time since the beginning of the NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll in late December. This milestone is significant as the 2016 primary heads into its final few weeks of contests, as there has been intense speculation that Trump's support has a ceiling. Though his support has hovered in the high 40s since mid-March, the front-runner had yet to secure half of Republican voters.

These results are according to the latest NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking poll conducted online from April 18 to April 24 of 10,707 adults aged 18 and over, including 9,405 registered voters.

'..Some of them will be bitter and stay home' (since Cruz has betrayed them)

And that will surely help put the witch in office. Another 4 years of rats will completely destroy our America

We need to,educate people that no president will outlaw abortion
That battle ground is in the states and then the USSC
Which will never outlaw abortion

The way to end abortion is to,raise up individual morality until it dominates the collectivE

Can I surmise that roughly half the country has woken up?

That in itself is remarkable!

The Trump phenomenon is already one for the books.

Uh-oh.. Traitor Teddy and Kasicks’s narrative is laid to waste. I hope they keep cheating, colluding, and trying to game the system! People see through their transparent GOPe sellout behavior and have had enough. Just wait for the polling after today’s landslides and the impact of the terrible alliance to show.
Make America GREAT Again!

All that’s left now is to see what Bill Kristol and the other dead-enders try at the convention.

Pat Buttram was actually a good guy.
Wrote speeches for Reagan.

>>We need to get behind whoever is in the R slot for this election and quit this in-fighting.

Why? The GOP demonstrated that it wants to be the party of globalism, cheap labor, and nothing else. It betrays every conservative value through the death by a thousand cuts and we keep accepting their betrayal by supporting them in the next election.

We are the abused wife who attacks the cops when they come to arrest the abuser because he promises that he’ll stop hitting us as soon as we get rid of the cops.

Some times you just have to throw a few things into a suitcase and flee in the night. Trump has exposed the GOP for what it is and now everyone can see it. Likewise the Democrat party has exposed itself too by using sleazy party rules to keep Bernie from getting the delegates he has earned.

Correcto Mundo on Pat Buttram.

Mr. Haney, on the other hand, was a Lyin’ weasel...and not unlike Lyin’ Ted.

That’s about the best argument for Trump. Everyone we detest is against him. Domestic and overseas.

The Cruz-Kasich coalition is collapsing as quickly as it was formed.

Exactly what I was thinking. Looks like the people have spoken and are trending towards Trump! Wait until after today. Should be even more obvious.

But Rove said that 65% of the republicans would not support Trump.???? This poll must be an outlier.
