Can Donald Trump be stopped?
Yahoo ^ | December 2, 2015 | Dylan Stableford

Two months before the Iowa caucuses, Donald Trump finds himself in a familiar position: on top in the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.

According to a Quinnipiac national survey released Wednesday, Trump leads Florida Sen. Marco Rubio by 10 points, with the billionaire real estate mogul receiving 27 percent support among GOP voters. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson are tied for third at 16 percent, followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (5 percent), who is a distant fourth. No other candidate in the Republican field registered more than 3 percent support in the poll.

Trump’s double-digit lead combined with the inability of other GOP candidates like Bush to break through is causing panic among Republican operatives who expected the former “Celebrity Apprentice” star to stumble following his controversial comments about, well, virtually everyone.

A lot of FR's conservatives are for Trump.

It's not rocket science, most of them know he's not a consistent conservative, but they like what he's done to the race; they like (as all conservatives should) his forthrightness that is so non PC, they like the issues he's focused on.

It's sad when those things aren't understood. It's not that they don't have a clue, not that at all. They're simply willing to trade inconsistency for a willingness to beat on political correctness, they're willing because of his stance on the wall, immigration, on muzzies, and on the premise he will not be beholden to the current crop of vultures feeding off the carcass of America.

In case you haven't noticed, the owner of this forum happens to be one of them.

It’s just the opposite.

If he can win the nomination, the general will be a landslide.

For every republican that won’t vote for him, two democrats will.

LOL...the TDS’ers are getting so desperate, that they’re bringing out all of their old, tired (debated and debunked) memes back out of their GOPe playbook.

This is actually entertaining to watch.

Exactly, I’m a Cruz guy,but from day one of Trump getting in the race,he has taken a sledge hammer to the most dangerous thing infecting our country,Cultural Marxism. No one,I mean no one compares to him.
Sure,people like Newt or Cruz have good dust ups with media people,but it has very little effect,other than that particular media person being jerked off.
People like Limbaugh,or Levin have big megaphones,but play almost exclusively to the choir.
Almost all the rot,that infects our country stems from Cultural Marxism,and its been going on for many,many decades.
No one,no one is hitting it as hard as Trump.
