Trump has 36 percent support, 9 percent higher than he had in October more than double the 16 percent backing for ultraconservative Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, his closest competitor.

In particular, Trump is a runaway choice of GOP voters surveyed who do not have college degrees, his support rising above 40 percent.

Ben Carson has fallen back to 14 percent from a 22 percent showing in October, and is tied for third place with Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is far back at 4 percent, with Jeb Bush and Carly Fiorina at 3 percent apiece.

Post this around other threads for the next while. I watched the orginal airing and
I thought it was good. The show goes back into the early years of Trump and some of his
history. Many may not like it but it is about someone that may become President.

Trump can usually predict what is coming because he has vision based on his own common sense which most people have but most of the leadership class have sold out their souls to be part of the high and mighty.

There are many sophisticates who love to praise multi-culturalism because it is so enriching and they just love to eat at those charming little restaurants that serve exotic cuisine from all over the world. What narcissistic dumb asses.

Also, like many of us, he's a news junkie. He reads a lot and he watches/listens to news shows.

He constantly praises DRUDGE, so we know that he reads that sited. :-)

And yes, he does have "common sense" !

Trump should get Don Rickles to run as his VP. Then we could insult hostile nations and Jihadists into submission.
