New Labor Day Polls Show Trump Leading in GOP Favorability & Defeating Every Democrat Challenger
Gallup Polls The Last Refuge - Conservative Treehouse ^ | September 4, 2015 | Sundance

Two Labor Day Polls Portend ‘Splodey Heads For The Anti-Trump Advocates….

Earlier today Gallup released a poll showing that Trump is the most heavily favored candidate (63% Approval Rating) amid Republicans.

A devastating defeat for the establishment GOP (GOPe) who are seeking to push their preferred candidate Jeb Bush. Such substantive favorable opinion of candidate Trump puts the RNC/GOPe in a difficult position as they plot to begin their collective assault against the unpalatable frontrunner.

But tonight the news for the Vichy Republican crowd is infinite degrees worse. As they plot the best course of Trump’s annihilation – national polls now show Donald Trump defeating every Democrat party candidate by substantial margins.

(Via Survey USA) In an election for President of the United States, today, Labor Day, business provocateur Donald Trump narrowly defeats Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Al Gore, in head-to-head matchups, according to nationwide polling conducted by SurveyUSA.

According to a survey of all Americans – Today it’s:

* Trump 45%, Clinton 40%. (There is a 20-point Gender Gap; Trump leads by 18 points among seniors.) * Trump 44%, Sanders 40%. (Trump leads by 10 among independents and by 6 among moderates.) * Trump 44%, Biden 42%. (Trump leads by 10 among the best educated; Biden leads by 17 among the least educated.) * Trump 44%, Gore 41%. (Trump leads by 12 among men and by 18 among voters age 50+.)

Among a subset of registered voters who tell SurveyUSA that they pay “a lot” of attention to politics, the scale tilts to the right. The poll results are even more devastating amid those who are registered voters: Today it’s:

* Trump 54%, Clinton 36%. * Trump 53%, Sanders 39%. * Trump 53%, Biden 37%. * Trump 54%, Gore 36%.

http://www.surveyusa.com/client/PollReport.aspx?g=d950cadf-05ce-4148-a125-35c0cdab26c6

That’s almost a twenty point margin for victory for Trump against Hillary Clinton with registered voters – BOOM !

While this is devastating news for the National Republican Committee, for those who research beyond the media narrative these results do not come as a surprise. The Hillary VS Trump polling numbers (general population) above are confirmation of prior polling (August) which reflected an almost identical outcome:

Obviously this visible and statistical reality cuts the preferred media narrative to shreds. These types of polling results are what Frank Luntz was referring to when he said his legs were wobbling after seeing how broad the Donald Trump support was. Luntz was apoplectic against the backdrop of a citizenry refusing to be swayed by media influence.

Despite an avalanche of MSM effort to paint candidate Trump as a vulgarian racist who hates Mexican Latinos, 59% of Americans support Donald Trump’s most controversial aspect within his immigration reform proposals, his willingness for forced deportation.

Again and again, in both polls and action, the broad U.S. electorate is showing full-throated support for Donald Trump and his policy proposals.

The RNC and the DNC in combination with the entire legacy media complex are facing a paradigm shift in their traditional ability to influence election outcomes. They have tried to ridicule Trump, and it hasn’t worked. They’ve tried to isolate Trump by dividing the electorate, it hasn’t worked. They’ve tried to marginalize Trump by dismissing his campaign validity – again, it hasn’t worked.

This in-your-face reality presents a serious problem for the media and professional political parties. With this much visible support -and it just keeps growing- how does the media and the professional political apparatus stop Trump from victory?

For the professional political class the entire risk/reward dynamic is now fraught with additional variables. If they continue to attack Trump they run the risk of making themselves even more visibly irrelevant – ergo each continued attack becomes even less impactful. Yet, if they don’t attack Trump their very existence is at risk…..

How will they possibly find a solution?

Great comments. To my mind the government should be run as if it were a for profit business and he does have the credentials to do that. My concern is that we seem to have millions of people who don’t have any inner drive to excel even if an environment existed where they were able to if they had the desire. Our forefathers who crossed the plains and mountains in a covered wagon must be turning over in their graves.

The only money Trump has spent is for travel.

6% no opinion of Trump. I didn’t know that 6% of people are heavily medicated.

I have never understood why anyone would participate in a poll and not have an opinion. I also cannot understand why someone would not have an opinion about Trump. He comes across as the kind of person that you like to some degree or absolutely can’t stand.

My best friend says that opinions are like another part of your anatomy, everybody has one!

Will have to say that I don’t have much of an opinion about Jeb except that he is exceedingly boring and I don’t particularly care for people that I consider boring.

I do not believe that Trump has a fully gelled political philosophy. Rather reminds me of Teddy Roosevelt.

But he has a “Can do” attitude, and he is making the right enemies. He will reach out to experts to help him get things done. It is what he has always done. Those experts will not be from the left or the GOPe, because they have tried their worst to dismiss him.

They will be people like Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin, Dr. Ben Carson, and others who took him seriously from the start. With advisors like that he will do well.

He also says that he is a regular listener to Mark Levin! How about Mark Levin for Attorney General!

I agree with what you write, although I didn't know he listens to Levin. That is good news.

They have ten whole months to destroy Trump.

And if they fail - Jeb Bush will lead them in endorsing Hillary, or Biden. Jeb may even run as their VP.

That’s why the GOPe “loyalty pledge” Trump signed is such a farce. When they win, they demand loyalty. When they lose, they back the Democrat.
