After a week in which he hosted Saturday Night Live and stood center-stage at a Republican debate, Donald Trump is surging among Republicans likely to cast votes in the party’s presidential primary. According to the five-day rolling Reuters/Ipsos presidential poll, Trump has leapt some 17 percentage points among likely Republican voters since Nov. 6, when he was essentially tied with Ben Carson at about 25 percent.
Among all Republicans - not simply likely primary voters -Trump holds a substantial edge over Carson, at 34 percent to about 20 percent, according to the Reuters/Ipsos poll. Trump’s appearance on NBC's Saturday Night Live earned the program its highest ratings in two years, with 9.3 million viewers tuning in. Then, on Tuesday, 13.5 million viewers watched the debate from Milwaukee broadcast on the Fox Business Network. It remains to be seen, however, whether Trump’s surge will hold in the wake of his comments at an Iowa rally Thursday night in which he tore into Carson, telling the crowd that Carson has a "pathological" temper.
"If you’re pathological, there’s no cure for that,†Trump said. "If you’re a child molester, there’s no cure for that.†Trump then posted a video critical of Carson on his Instagram account Friday. The Republican establishment has long expected the outspoken billionaire to fade, and he has yet to give it the satisfaction. Trump has consistently held more than 25 percent of the support among all Republicans in the Reuters/Ipsos rolling poll for more than two months. The Reuters/Ipsos poll is also bad news for Marco Rubio, who is widely considered to be emerging as the establishment-backed alternative to Trump. Despite receiving rave notices for his past two debate performance, Rubio’s support has remained flat, with about 10 percent of likely Republican primary voters preferring him.

Even his “ship the refugees back to Syria”. Has now tuned out to be valid with the finding of that passport.
But when you have a sitting President and a sitting S of S running guns thru Benghazi to overthrow Assad and made the starting of ISIS and now that same person is campaigning for the office of President, doesn't ‘treason against the United States’ come to mind? Why is obuma still in office and why isn't Hillary in prison?
Where are our House and Senators on this? Because half of them were behind both of them letting this happen....
And everybody is up in arms over what Trump says he would do as President, and everybody is up in arms because Cruz is supporting our Constitution....
A Country by 2017? I wouldn't bet on it....
Thanks!
You betcha. Someone usually posts a LIVE thread, as well.

FACT: Since 2009, Obama has admitted more than 250,000 Muslims EACH YEAR.
FACT: Since 2011, over 100 Muslim immigrants have been charged with jihad-related crimes in the US.
FACT: Since 2009, Obama has welcomed Muslim settlers, migrants, and immigrants, even though only about 10% are skilled enough to live without welfare
Only one reason comes to mind, HE IS BLACK, well 1/2. That right there is what is stopping them from impeachment.
Obama sensed a problem for himself from the beginning, so he began immediately to stir up the Blacks into the BLM movement we see now. Now he has his 10000K Syrian Army landed in Syria..........what's stopping him? NOTHING.
Those horrible militia people, just look at them stirring up riots and such/s.
The main point he kept on was Carson taking a hammer to his mother. No N he said would ever do that, but then to also go and WRITE about it in a book.....how stupid can you be Carson.
If you did not have enough sense to keep that dark secret to yourself, how would you be trusted to run this country. You have no Comprehensive SENSE, none at all.
You must think that being a brain surgeon, low info voters will think those brains you were operating on somehow spilled out to your own. That's how it works right?/s.
Even Geraldo Rivera is now saying along with Donald Trump, “Bomb the S—t out of them.” Especially since his daughter was at the soccer game in Paris, she is on a student exchange. I have never seen such fear on Geraldo’s face as there was when he was talking to Shep yesterday afternoon. Time will tell whether or not Geraldo’s opinion on ISIS has really changed.
There have been 3 45+ state landslides in modern American history - Nixon 72, Reagan 80, and Reagan 84.
It’s no a coincidence that all of them could reach the “silent majority”. Any Republican candidate who cannot (most of them) can either lose, or squeak out a narrow win.
Is there any current Republican primary candidate who can do this?
Only one.

“His attack on Carson is not going to sit well with people.”
Horsepucky! It’s time someone unmasked Carson. The MSM won’t do it because they know he’s a pushover in the general election.
“It will be like Jimmy Carter all over again,”
The big difference here is that Carter was, and still is, and idiot! Not so for Trump. Also Trump, unlike Carter will have the people behind him together with some heavyweight people in key senior positions in the government. The GoPee will fight Trump at their peril, because Trump will either have their support or their mirkins hanging on the wall of the Oval Office.
I watched the ENTIRE speech from Fort Dodge, Iowa and TRUMP DID NOT ATTACK CARSON.
He simply reiterated what CARSON HIMSELF had said about HIMSELF in his book.
CARSON claims that he, himself, ( CARSON ) believes himself to have a PATHOLOGICAL PERSONALITY.
Trump stated TWICE in his little rant that these were statements that CARSON made about HIMSELF in his book.
The Fort Dodge speech is on YouTube.

Check it for yourself and wake up.
I missed Trumps Beaumont TX speech. I hope there will be a replay of it somewhere.
You will want to see it. A+. Should be on You tube. Trump gave some of the families who lost loved ones to illegal aliens. I cried. So sad. They are very appreciative of him giving them a voice to speak out.
Thanks I just found it
Take that, Mark. Now get off my radio!
How is he doing it, Jane. Trump is the only one I follow, but it seems like he is the only one appearing cross country, morning and night! WHEN does this man-guy of ours sleep??
He is living on his plane? I hope he takes care of himself.
