Looks like Fox News has created a Frankenstein that they can no longer control.

Feel The Donald!

FYI....PPP was the most accurate pollster during the last presidential election cycle.

Donald Trump is leading the Republican field in North Carolina, according to a poll released Wednesday.

The billionaire businessman has the support of 16 percent of GOP primary voters in the Tar Heel State in the latest survey from left-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP).

The poll comes with Trump mired in controversy over his recent remarks on Hispanics and immigration from Mexico.

<...>

Trump is especially popular with “very conservative voters,” PPP found, with 66 percent of them seeing him favorably versus 24 percent who hold a negative view. He also claims 29 percent support among younger voters and 20 percent support with men.

1. You go, Donald!

[Tarheel_Dem]

2. As a North Carolinian, nothing surprises me anymore.

[arcane1]

3. Has he filed his paperwork yet?

[Rex]

6. The Don does not need to file paperwork! He will just walk into office and everyone shall bow down

to His Mighty Rumpness! All hail the King of Rumps!

[Rex]

4. The only man on the planet that thinks his farts smell good.

He looks like a foghorn and a bullhorn mated together.

[DCBob]

5. OMG!

I hope he runs third party if he doesnt win nomination.

[madokie]

11. When it comes right down to it the only thing he's going to run

is his mouth. No way in hell will he do the paper work required of actually running. He is in this for bragging rights and bragging rights only IMO

[DCBob]

12. Yep.. you are probably right about that.

[cwydro]

14. I agree with you.

I think he's enjoying every minute of this.

And the media plays right into his hands.

[Whiskeytide]

17. Agree. But I really want him to...

... hang in there through at least one debate. It would be platinum comedy. I'm afraid all the negative publicity and business losses will encourage him to go ahead and drop out now. My mantra for the present is "Let The Donald BE" ... The Donald.

[madokie]

18. I'm sure all of us agrees with you on this

but for tRump to lay it all out for everyone to see about his wealth is not going to happen. Even with the generalities of their wealth/income they are allowed to use it still won't happen.
He is the perfect definition of a fraud if ever there is one.

7. Go ahead GOP. Run an extreme hatemonger like this asshole.

Make it easy for us.

[n2doc]

8. The Retrumplican Party n/t

[Hortensis]

9. I am so tired of hearing about him, but not as much as the GOP leaders. They're definitely worried.

[Amishman]

10. he won't last, he is the Herman Cain of this election season

More outspoken and more memorable, so he gets an early bump just based on name recognition. Too many skeletons in the closet and too gaffe prone even by clowncar standards.

[Hortensis]

13. For sure, but effect on 2016? Cain was black, Donnie's showcasing the GOP's white supremacism.

[Darb]

15. I disagree. I think he could get the nomination.

The idiots love his brashness. His gaffs won't matter because he never retracts and he never apologizes, and they love him for it.

Believe me, he could get the nom. The big money is going to have their hands full keeping him down. The Bush camp is burning up the phones with the big money guys trying to figure out how to play it.

He's Frankenstein's monster.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

16. How's he doing versus Hillary in NC? nt

[libdem4life]

19. Rec #1 ... Vaya a la Victoria Republicana. We'll take it from there.

Edit: forgot a bit of Spanish grammar. Any Mexican or hispanic can correct it.

[Takket]

20. I think Trump walks away with the nomination

Honestly I don't see how anyone else in the field could beat him. All the rest of them are cookie cutter candidates that just say the same Koch written talking points over and over. They are about as interactive and inspiring as a cardboard box. trump has a certain personality and flair that I think will actually energize the RIGHT.

Just saying how I think a righty is going to respond to him. don't construe that statement as saying Trump appeals to ME!
