Prediction: Trump Will Rise in the Polls Next Week

[JCMach1]

Reaching the 20% mark (+ or - 2%)

Causing main-stream Republican heads to continue to explode...

[Gothmog]

1. There is a cap on the number of xenophobes and racists in the GOP base

[riderinthestorm]

2. GW Bush had a solid 25% that hung with him through every shitty thing

Trumps going for that rabid group and I bet he gets them.

[msrizzo]

3. True, but Trump's not there yet. nt.

[JCMach1]

4. never misunderestimate the foulness and stupidity of the Republican electorate

In such a cesspool, Trump was destined to rise to the top... just like _____________

[hifiguy]

7. The more I see, the less I think that is the case.

More or less everyone with more than ten brain cells to rub together has been purged from the party. The monkeys are now running the circus, and they were ram-fed full of meth, Red Bull and potent hallucinogens beforehand.

[Scootaloo]

10. Yup, and it's the exact same size as the GOP base

[BillZBubb]

12. You really believe there is a cap on the number of racists in the GOP base

And it is around 20%?

[Fred Sanders]

5. I will take a fin for two to one odds you are wrong. The corporate media has also abandoned SS Trump.

Even Fox has had enough I believe and and have begun the usual process of erasing all memory of their support for Trump from their Foxbots REM, even well after Father Rupert told Ailes to knock it off with giving Trump oxygen the went on, until now.

6. I was right with my last Trump prediction on the day he announced

8. good call

His racist troops will only grow noisier.

[MohRokTah]

9. I agree.

The teabaggers who despise McCain are eating this up.

He hasn't peaked yet and this will paint the entire GOP with an anti-veteran brush.

[DavidDvorkin]

11. I think you're probably wrong

But I hope you're right.

[Stinky The Clown]

13. Yup. Likely so.

[roamer65]

14. Trump represents the unfiltered viewpoints of the Rethuglican party.

Trump is very representative of what most of them actually think. I hope he keeps it up and stays in the race.

15. His rise in republican polling is due to increasing tea party support. There is more of that

yet to be had.

A quartet of recent polls have found that Donald Trump’s popularity has soared among the Republican Party’s far right wing to push him into the top tier of 2016 presidential contenders.

“Mexico—they’re taking our jobs. They’re taking our manufacturing. They’re taking our money. They’re killing us at the border,” he said at a rally in Phoenix, Arizona, last weekend to a nearly all-white audience. “We’ll take our country back.”

The Monmouth poll was more revealing, finding that Trump’s biggest boost came from the GOP’s Tea Party wing. “He has also made an incredible surge among the Tea Party supporters – flipping his decidedly net negative 20% to 55% rating with this group to a decidedly positive 56% favorable to 26% unfavorable rating now,” it reported.

“It looks like Tea Party voters are really responding to Trump’s aggressive illegal immigrant message,” said Patrick Murray, Monmouth University Polling Institute director.

16. You may be right.

These are strange times.

[Orsino]

17. Prediction: Trump will begin his inevitable decline this week.

His dissing of the troops will be the excuse the media and rank-and-file need to discard him in favor of next month's flavor.

18. and boom goes the dynamite

Even with the drop in support on the final night of the survey, Trump was the favorite of 24 percent of registered Republicans and Republican-leaning independents. That is the highest percentage and biggest lead recorded by any GOP candidate this year in Post-ABC News polls and marks a sixfold increase in his support since late May, shortly before he formally joined the race.,,, http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/poll-trump-surges-to-big-lead-in-gop-presidential-race/2015/07/20/efd2e0d0-2ef8-11e5-8f36-18d1d501920d_story.html

19. At worst, he takes only a negligible dip

Limbaugh came out defending him today, as did Hannity.

All the wingnuts of the GOP rank and file waited through the weekend til Monday to be told what to think.

Now they'll fall in line and accept their talking points.
