Where the Race Stands Donald Trump continues to lead his Republican rivals by double digits among Republican primary voters nationally. Forty-six percent of Republican primary voters would like Donald Trump to win the Republican Party's nomination for President, the same percentage as Ted Cruz (26 percent) and John Kasich (20 percent) combined. 4 percent say they would vote for none of these candidates.

Although the percentage that supports each of the three remaining candidates has risen since Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, and Marco Rubio left the race, Donald Trump has made the most gains. Support for Trump has risen eleven points -- from 35 percent in February to 46 percent now -- while support has risen eight points for Ted Cruz and nine points for John Kasich.

I’m not disagreeing on any of that. But the American electorate isn’t the same as discerning conservatives who think that bitch should be put away for good. People can attack Bubba’s past behavior and flag Hillary for abetting it until the cows come home, but to most voters, those are sideshow issues. Americans unfortunately no longer look upon that kind of behavior as abhorrent.

Trump's ceiling will keep going up (like this slanted ceiling inside this building) until he wins.

Hillary is despised. By the time Trump is done with her, her negatives will be higher than his.

Mittens, an effeminate moderate got a mere 52% of the male vote, running against an effeminate liberal Obama. Trump, an alpha male running against a hardcore feminazi, with a nails-on-the-chalkboard voice, will easily get close to 60%.

Romney got 59% of the white vote, Trump will add +4-6 points to that.

Kasich is now the one killing Cruz instead of Rubio. It’s just like Newton Gingrich bleeding Santorum four years ago.
