After calling pollsters a waste of money, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign reversed course and signed up veteran political strategist and pollster Tony Fabrizio, sources tell POLITICO.
Fabrizio has worked on numerous presidential elections. He is also a top strategist for the Florida U.S. Senate campaign of Rep. Ron DeSantis, masterminded Gov. Rick Scott’s improbable Florida win in 2010 and was pollster for Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin in his 2015 win.

Likely to gauge where/when to schedule rallies, by using daily tracking polling.
I keep saying, Trump is frugal. I think that mentality will be good for America. Trump doesn’t like wasting money and held out for 10 months before he broke down and relinquished in hiring a pollster based on cause and need.
Well yes and no. I guess now that he’s on top for the GOP nomination it wouldn’t hurt once.
Pretty amazing how far he’s gotten without one.
Something tells m Rick Scott will be his VP.
This is good move. Trump needs a state of the art political machine.
I am wondering if he didn’t hire this guy to analyze all the OTHER polls, as opposed to polling FOR Trump.
Very well expressed. I think you are right on.
A little off topic, but -
Matt Bevin is a RINO in Tea Party clothing. Mark my words. He’s no different from Cruz, Rubio, Gowdy, Ryan, or any of the other phony conservatives who talked to talk just long enough to get elected. Don’t be fooled by this loser.
“talked to talk” should be “talked the talk”. I’m getting tired.
He adapts to the conditions and needs of the day. Refreshing....
