Despite the best efforts of Fox News and Rupert Murdoch, their own pollster Daron Shaw duplicates an identical polling outcome from the most recent three. [Poll Data Here]
President Trump is growing his support base, and Ron DeSantis is losing even more ground.
It’s important to keep in mind that Fox News has been desperately trying to prop up the campaign of Ron DeSantis, giving him soft interviews and pushing his infomercials every week. Yet even Rupert Murdoch is now having to admit DeSantis just doesn’t have the support of the base Republican voters.
FOX NEWS – Three weeks after the first Republican presidential primary debate, the latest Fox News survey finds Donald Trump has increased both his lead in the race and his strength of support.
Sixty percent of Republican primary voters back Trump in the primary race, up from 53% in the Fox News pre-debate August survey. […] At 13% support, Ron DeSantis sees a downtick of 3 points since the debate, while Vivek Ramaswamy holds steady at 11%. Next is Nikki Haley with 5%, Mike Pence and Tim Scott at 3% each, and Chris Christie at 2%. All remaining candidates receive 1% or less. (more)
BIG SMILE – The RNC is in a very weak position ahead of the September 27th Fox Business News debate at the Reagan Library. President Trump has already said he will not be in attendance, and the remaining candidates look silly as they prepare for a debate with zero relevance to the voters.
The GOPe was looking to use the Reagan Library debate as a great opportunity to undermine President Trump and position him as the radical candidate. However, the debate itself is increasingly irrelevant. As this dynamic unfolds, the RNC is weakened in an almost delicious way.
As noted by Politico:
[…] The RNC required candidates only to hit 1 percent nationally to make the stage for the first debate. For the second debate candidates need to either hit 3 percent in two national polls or in a combination of one national poll and polls from two early states.
The lack of clarity around upcoming debates is a sign that the RNC is walking a delicate line as it tries to maintain neutrality in a primary field that is decidedly lopsided. Former President Donald Trump has a wide lead over the rest of the field, but he did not attend the first debate and has no plans to attend the second. The RNC is likely hoping to lure him in with a setting he might find more appealing for the third — or the organization and its events look increasingly irrelevant. (read more)
Nothing is better to see than the RNC becoming irrelevant.
Pssssst!
Reno,
Over here!
I hear Noem is screwing around, running orgies and stuff, sure to hurt Trump, Oh, wait, drat, foiled again!
The DeSantis “Self Identifying Virtuous Do Gooders” are busy today trying to help Meatball totally tank in the polls.
Guy is such a crybaby. Hand him a hanky and please clap.
This is all boring. We know Trump will be the nominee. The question is : Can he win against Michelle Obama or Newsom, especially when we all know the Dims will attempt to rig the election...again.
That's quite a "cult."
It’s all so silly. Why do we even have this stupid primary? Why not focus all our money NOW to get our President Trump defended from the Deep State and elected back into office? What’s the point in blowing money on DuhSantis and the other losers?
What is the source of “our” money? Everyone is free to support any candidate they choose. Everyone who donates to other candidates is exercising their own free choice.
Of course people are free to waste their money down a rathole for these candidates who are simply not going to win.
I’m saying it’s silly to do so.
> “Cult” (definition): noun. “Insulting term for people who don’t like Meatballs.”
Yup. The “cult” slur is being used by the GOPe and Deep State kingmakers who are furious that our loyalty to one of the finest Presidents America has ever known cannot be shaken by smooth talk, insults, and millions of dollars sunk into their chosen puppets’ candidacies.
FURIOUS.
Trump posted a fox poll on Truth Social that had him at 48% and 2 up on Biden. Is this the same poll?
That’s Michael Obama.
Lincoln may have been right after all.
(...all the people, all the time...)
Meatball needs to drop out
