I think we are going to have to RAISE that Trump ceiling yet again!

As front-runner Donald Trump continues his march toward the Republican nomination for president, he is more popular than ever among GOP voters, according to a new Morning Consult survey.
Fifty-six percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents polled from April 29 through May 2 said they would vote for Trump if the election were held today. That’s an 8-point increase from our previous poll, taken last week.
And while Trump is up 8 points, the news gets worse for his main competitor, Sen. Ted Cruz. Only 20 percent of voters are still backing the Texas Republican for the nomination, which is down 7 points from last week. Cruz’s favorability among Republican voters was down 4 points (54 percent to 50 percent) and down 2 points among independents (27 percent to 25 percent). And in a week in which he announced former GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina as his would-be running mate on a Republican ticket, his favorability among Republican women also fell 7 points, from 54 percent to 47 percent.
The third candidate in the GOP race, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, was the first choice for 13 percent of respondents, up 1 point from our previous poll.

Again.......
:-)
Ping!
Ted Cruz still says he’s winning and will win the nomination. /s
How about them Apples
100% sure Rush or Mark Levin never ever mention this Poll
Sorry, I was just impersonating a Cruzer.
"He's well below 100%, thus signaling a fundamental weakness in his base of support. It could be his demonstrated hatred of blacks, whites, women, men, transgenders, normal people and puppies. He's all but done now.
That's how Rove would analyze the situation.
Maybe tomorrow.......
Delusional they are.
Karl never thought he'd have to sink this low.
But he did.
This is a different poll from the other one I posted this morning showing Cruz at 56% as well.
Just voted...
Over 600 total at my local precinct (2 combined) have already voted at 130PM EST.
Those are presidential election numbers, or even better.
Donald Trump hits new low, argues against free speech

He’s done ... he should concede now
No one survives the one-on-one with The Donald. Just like Rubio immediately beforehand and Jeb and other before that, it’s a losing cause. Lets hope that holds up in November for the ultimate 1-on-1.
And ted cruz’n back to the senate where he can once again prove to US his leaderless abilities!
I find it odd that all of a sudden the LSM is being nice to the Bushes.
Makes me think they’re saying, aw, the Bushes aren’t that bad after all, maybe you should vote for Jeb.
Woo Hoo!!!!!!!
Ping!
