Poll: Trump Reaches 50 Percent Support Nationally for the First Time
NBC News ^ | APR 26 2016 | HANNAH HARTIG, JOHN LAPINSKI and STEPHANIE PSYLLOS

Donald Trump has reached 50 percent support from Republicans and Republican-leaners nationally for the first time since the beginning of the NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll in late December. This milestone is significant as the 2016 primary heads into its final few weeks of contests, as there has been intense speculation that Trump's support has a ceiling. Though his support has hovered in the high 40s since mid-March, the front-runner had yet to secure half of Republican voters.

These results are according to the latest NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking poll conducted online from April 18 to April 24 of 10,707 adults aged 18 and over, including 9,405 registered voters.

“Rush Limbaugh will either ignore this completely, or simply pooh pooh it like he does with every other positive regarding Trump.”

The first hour of Rush’s show is in the can, and he hasn’t mentioned this poll yet.

In fact, he spent the whole first hour reviewing the roolz, and extolling the extraordinary virtues and preparedness of Saint Ted of Cubanada.

Once again watch the ceiling soon become the floor. 50% is certainly the ceiling now, lol

For the first time in the minds of leftist pundits, perhaps. Many of the voters have been aware for considerably longer.

And how does that happen in a country that is becoming less religious by the year? I keep waiting for someone to explain this to me and all I get are useless platitudes. I’ve taught high schoolers since the early 90s. And I can gaurantee you that abortion isn’t anywhere near a priority, nor has it been in in almost 20 years. They ACCEPT it as easily as they accept dental care and yoge. It’s just a thing.

” Cruz turned out to be such a phoney and an establishment stooge. It is no wonder that his fellow senators detest him. He is a two-faced lying scheming cheating shyster who will pursue personal ambition at all

A lot of Cruzers have switched to Trump...they’re just too proud to say so.

Go, Trump, go. And if the gopee wackos steal the evil delegates on the 2nd round of the Cleveland raucous, go third party cause it it high time for a third party that represents Christians and conservative values.

No president can "outlaw"/overturn an existing law! You've just proved how uneducated you are!

And whilst some Cruzites may stay home, when Trump runs against Hillary, Trump has brought in more than enough to cover that stupidity AND some of the Bernie supporters, who refuse to vote for Hillary, will vote for Trump to punish her.

We DO need to get behind the GOP nominee, UNLESS the GOPE pulls a fast one and tries to shove a Romney, Ryan, or worse down our collective throats.

Where is Rove when we need him? He needs to remind us that Trump has a low ceiling.
