(CNN)In the first national telephone poll since Donald Trump earned rebukes from Republican leaders over his comments about Senator John McCain's military service, the real estate mogul has increased his support among GOP voters and now stands atop the race for the party's nomination.
The new CNN/ORC Poll finds Trump at 18% support among Republicans, with former Florida governor Jeb Bush just behind at 15%, within the poll's margin of error.
They are joined at the top of the pack by Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, with 10% support among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who are registered to vote. Trump's backing has climbed 6 points since a late-June poll, while support for Bush and Walker has not changed significantly.

Correction - that’s CN and N.
Trump supports amnesty for those who have been doing an outstanding job.
Trump has described himself as a liberal
Trump has called conservatives crazy
Trump has called free universal healthcare for all
Trump has called for a wealth tax
Trump gave money to both Hillary and Obama
Trump said he has never sought forgiveness for his sins.
Trump supports a ban on assault weapons and longer waiting periods before being allowed to purchase a gun.
SERIOUSLY, this guy is wrong on EVERYTHING!
He could give Hillary a run for her money for the DEMOCRATIC nomination.
Most of that is pure bs and rest is old and tired. But whatever believe what you want, most here ain’t buying your shtick.
Those of us who have listened to Trumps speeches saw him address the ‘Gave money to Democrats’ thing.
You look stupid with that in the list.
Break out the popcorn.
This is all a dog & pony show - political Kabuki theater ...The GOPe will play this game up to the very end of the primaries - which they will fix accordingly, just as the dem-o-sluts do, via open primaries ... That is when, “all of a sudden” (surprise) JB - who was “within the margin of error on all our polls” - then becomes the GOPe nominee.
Mark my words - TPTB will NEVER EVER allow Donald Trump to be on the Republican ballot for the presidency.
Trump will go Third Party; and the Republicans, with their pansie-assed, seditious, Mexican-loving boy-toy - Jeb Bush, will loose by a historic landslide, yet again.
America will get 8 years of Hildabeast - Obama on steroids ...
And then we may all kiss this country goodbye forever.
Why do you think Hitlery would win????? Why do you think that ALL independents would vote for that hag over Trump?????
I dont believe ANY politician that suddenly changes his views on every major issue just before seeking to be elected
************************************************************************
How Mitt Romneyish of him.
I like what you said.
Trump may turn out as smoke and mirrors. What he says represents a cleansing rain and a fresh breeze after being forced to tolerate a gutless political cabal that kisses the boots of the self anointed PC police that created a PC muzzle when the electorate craves the truth.
I think you just discovered the new Conservative theme song!

Now, we just need to redo the lyrics ... So, get to work!
“Rand Paul is a bad guy.”
You’re just now figuring that out?
The apple never falls far from the tree - His daddy is a nut job, and so is he ... Albeit, from a different angle.
Libertarians are no different than liberals ... When you scour away their disgusting perversion of constitutional liberties (moral relativism) then you understand that ignoring the need for a moral people undermines their favorite sound-bite of “fiscal conservatism” ... Moral corruption costs money - lots of it. The welfare state is nothing but a symptom of our moral corruption.
Trump is a real estate mogul OF COURSE he would donate to these LIBS they have the power to STOP any and ALL building he was trying to do!!!!! Trump NEEDED to grease the palms of these slime balls in order to be successful, come on you MUST KNOW how the corrupt game is played!!!!! I hold NO donations against him it HAD to be done for his company’s survival!!!!!! Plain and simple!!!!!!
holy crap. so, his corruption and graft is somehow permissible because it was necessary corruption and graft.
srsly?
Please make a list of the 5-10 most important issues for conservatives.
And then look up where Trump has stood on each and every one of them and you will find that he has stood with the liberals at some point on each and every one of them.
What is the chance of that?
In fact he even self identified as a “liberal”, not just a Democrat but a LIBERAL. Now this is in a world where the last 30-40 years the label “liberal” is practically a cuss word.
Just go down the list:
God
Guns
Taxes
Abortion
Healthcare
Entitlements
Moral character
Unions
War
Terrorism
History of disdain towards conservatives.
Contributions to Democrats
Voting history
It doesn’t matter what you can think of ... Trump has at some point been on the opposite side of the issue from conservatives.
Giving donations to a political candidate is HARDLY corrupt, just a way of getting permits processed quickly!!!!! The politicians are the corrupt ones anyone in business KNOWS the ONLY way to success is to grease the palms of these SOB’s what the hell do you think ALL of the lobbyists are for!!!!!!!
Donald Trump on Obama:
quote “Trump also gave his assessment of Barack Obama the man, stating, Well, I think hes sort of a guy that just has a wonderful personality, a good speaker, somebody that people trust. And I also think that the comparison with his predecessor is so different its so huge that it really has made a great impact on people.
Overall, I think hes doing a really good job Hes totally a champion,
“Which means his support among Democrats and Independents isn’t zero. The media is only reporting his support among Republicans but his Democrat/Independent/Low Information Voter support is likely substantial and growing. Pollsters must know the numbers but no one is telling. It’s a total news blackout, too terrifying to publish.”
Excellent point ... Wonder why no other FReeper (or anybody else, for that matter) has brought this to the fro?
B/C the Republocrats will throw the election - You have to understand something about the GOPe - they are butt buddies with the Demonicans ... The whole two-party deal is a sham from start to finish - it is ALL the same party ... The party of the elites. Period. And the one who will ensure that the elites completely dominate every last aspect of American life is Hitlery.
These people are all either sociopaths or psychopaths. They are drunk with power. Except, perhaps, for Cruz, every last one of them hates the idea of a free America. They want us as slaves. They would kill any one of us to maintain their power. That is why not one of them does a thing to stop Obama’s dictatorial reign of tyranny. They go along with it b/c they are all cut from the same bolt of cloth.
