Poll: Trump holds nearly 50 percent support of Republicans nationally
MSNBC ^ | March 29, 2016 | Hannah Hartig

Posted on 03/29/2016 5:21:02 AM PDT by McGruff

With just three candidates left in the Republican primary race, Donald Trump now holds 48 percent support of registered Republicans and Republican-leaners, according to the NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking poll. This is more than 20 points higher than his second-place competitor, Ted Cruz—who now enjoys 27 percent support. John Kasich got a boost of 2 points this week and holds third place with 18 percent support.

The question in the Republican race, however, is no longer whether Trump is the clear front-runner, but whether he will reach the magic delegate number of 1,237—and, if not, whether Republicans will support him as their party’s nominee going forward. These are big questions that have implications for the direction of the Republican Party and, ultimately, the outcome of the 2016 presidential race.

Morning Consult is an honorable place, I have mailed Reid Wilson with questions a couple of times and he answered me.

Krauthammer said he peaked at 10% early on

he was a “joke”

Not sure Krauthammer has been right in 20 years, but people sure do think he’s a genius

The Blonde Obama was right when he said if he ever ran for president he would run as a Republican because their voters are so stupid. How prophetic.

There was a time when Krauthammer was prophetic and lucid. Those days have long passed.

This is true, but his time is long past. These pundits comment and predict on the way things were in the 20th century.

Times have changed, that’s why none of these old players even have a clue as to whats going on.

It’d be like me (at 69 years old) trying to go to a night club to pick up young girls. I wouldn’t know what the hell was going on and I’d look like an old fool idiot, and then I’d be laughed at.
