Real-estate magnate has jumped out to his biggest lead yet in the state of Iowa, which will hold the nation's first presidential caucuses next year.

A new CNN/ORC poll released Wednesday showed Trump getting 22% of the vote from likely Iowa Republican caucus-goers.

That puts him up 8 points over his next-closest challenger, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) comes in third place, earning 9% of the vote.

Dear Megyn,

You’re so vain
I bet you thought the debate was about you
Didn’t you, didn’t you

HA!

We can trust him. Right? He's only 69 years old and wouldn't have been set in his ways before his campaign began around 2011. Right?

Trump Trump, he’s our man.
If he can’t do it, nobody can!

Speaking of Megyn, did anyone else catch her saying that she is taking 1.5 weeks off “because she hasn’t had a vacation in 6 months” on her show tonight.

Somehow this sounds fishy as hell to me.

Right after she said it, I turned to my wife and said: “Donald Trump”. No vacation for 6 months is not exactly considered a hardship in most jobs, and 1.5 weeks is a strange amount of time for that.

But, it would fit nicely into a 10 day suspension for asking obviously loaded questions at the debate...

Few care about her anymore. Mocking an exposed fraud like Ms. Kelly has a limit. Like watching a bad accident or video. Most folks don't want to watch it over and over.☺

I didn’t watch Megyn - it’s all I can really do to fight back.

“This is getting interesting..”

Also, Hill is educating America in how not to handle government secrets.

Analyze this, George Will, pontificate about this. Please. I’m dying to read what you have to say about this, Oh Brave And Mighty Lapdog of the Republican Establishment. Please tell us how a Trump win in Iowa won’t matter. Or how it can’t happen. Or how the entire Republican leadership must unite to prevent it.

Oh wait, the entire Republican Leadership IS ALREADY united to prevent a Trump victory in Iowa.

How’s that working out for you so far?

Hahahahahahahahahahahah
