(CNN)-Donald Trump's supporters are pissed off, fiercely loyal, and as surprising as the candidate himself.

As the billionaire business mogul has broken the conventional rules of politics time and time again this year, his supporters have remained steadfast and loyal, showing remarkable resistance to the stream of criticism that skeptics have thrown Trump's way. And their numbers are growing; Trump was at 36% among Republican leaning voters in a CNN poll this month -- the broadest support yet for the GOP frontrunner. Now, many are digging in their heels as the candidate fights off intense backlash from his latest and most controversial comments yet about banning all Muslims from entering the United States.

Citing the "Republican Party's impotence" and marveling at Trump's "unvarnished" persona, eight Trump supporters shed light on what's behind their allegiance to Trump in an extended interview on "New Day" with CNN's Alisyn Camerota Thursday.

Trump is leading because he has the FU vote. FU to Obama, to Hillary, to the liberals, to ISIS, to the news media talking heads. The FU Majority.

never ever underestimate the evil ruthlessness of the NWO ruling establishment. I am certain they already have a plan in place that will secure their power and overcome any and all resistance to their world take over. However, what they will not overcome is God’s plan and it may prove that Mr. Trump has been and remains part of His plan.

He has the FU vote because he’s got FU money! So he can say “FU” to the big-money donors!

For every Trump voter speaking out there are 3 more “shy tory” Trump voters who don’t want to take sh** from a pollster.

I think that a lot of Obama voters are pissed of with Obama.They thought they were voting for some mystic change,not the general decline of the country.
