“None of that changes the fact that in 2015 the vast silent majority is supporting Trump.”
Where is the evidence for that? I’m not sure there is any evidence that Trump is growing his numbers, and the more statements like the ones he made yesterday are going to make him more unpopular.
I like Trump for not being politically correct, but he stretches that beyond the pale sometimes. This personal attack against Carson is going to backfire, just like all the media attacks against Carson have.
If anybody has a silent majority, I think it’s Cruz. The people are looking for an “outsider”, but Cruz is the only insider who has a record of fighting like an outsider in practice, with a record to prove it. Once the dominoes start falling (candidates drop out), I can see Cruz collecting voters like crazy.
“Where is the evidence for that?”
Simple - the unmatched numbers and energy at Trump’s rallies. Anyone who has taken the time to pay attention to that knows no other candidate except Sanders pulls in crows like Trump does.
