Trump Tramples Trends, Dominates National Poll For Second Week

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Despite losing marquee PGA and LPGA events, a bankruptcy at his Puerto Rico golf course, and the lowest ratings for Miss USA pageant ever, Donald Trump has topped the rest of the GOP presidential field in polls for the second time in as many weeks...

 

Among voters who identify either as Republicans or independents and who plan to vote in their states’ Republican primaries or caucuses, 17 percent named Trump as their first choice for the GOP nomination in the 2016 presidential race.

 

Trump was followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (14 percent), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (8 percent), Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (6 percent), Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (5 percent), retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson (4 percent), Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (4 percent), former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (4 percent) and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (3 percent).

Receiving less than 2 percent each were former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, businesswoman Carly Fiorina, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, and former New York Gov. George Pataki.

 

As the Suffolk University/USA Today poll also showed, among self-identified conservative or very conservative Republican likely voters, Trump led Bush 17 percent to 11 percent, with all other candidates in single digits.

However, among voters of all parties, Trump’s negatives were the highest, at 61 percent.

*  *  *

Finally, Trump appears to be the most-searched Presidential candidates in the last six months in several regions...

 

"United" States of America indeed.

Trump is not the type of guy who behaves well at the end of a leash , and that is exactly the problem.

I would expect the GOP and Dems to join forces against him.

If he manages to get elected , you will get major change.

Trump is the secondary false-candidate in the 2016 Sheeple census.

The primary false-candidate is Hillary--Ms. Clinton, if you're nasty, and a lesbian psychopath.

Trump's mandate is to introduce the neocons' platform and agenda to the masses. Later, the neocons will embrace the same message, as it is theirs, but then call it something else.

Hillary's mandate is just to be a lighting rod for the neocons. Riling up the evangelical Christian and conservative not-thinking heartland so that they will be more supportive of the neocons' further enslavement of them.

Perry of Texas has already been selected to be the next Oval Office puppet of Zion. The others so-called candidates are only a smoke screen, as they were in 2008.

Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..

 

Sometimes you have to slow down and smell Zion's dead flowers.

Obviously Trump has not got your message about his NeoCon role.

He had previously said the US should not get involved in Iraq.

In the last few weeks he has publicly said Ukraine is a matter for Germany and Europe if they think it is necessary, not for the US.

What is it again that a NeoCon is supposed to be for?

My overarching point: It's theater. Theater of propaganda and lies, but theater none the less.

Neocons: At a minimum, pro Israel, and very involved in utilizing the DC US military and resources in the service of Zion's banksters and Israel.

Israel desires Lebensraum in Syria for a gas pipeline route to Europe, water rights and farms. The Ukraine was, is, about trying to get Russia to acquiesce to Israel's Syrian land grab. Russia has a base/port in Syria which they do not want to jeopardize. Zion thought that if they interfered with Russia's gas transits to Europe via the Ukraine, and let Russia take possession of the Crimea, gaining permanent possession of the port of Sevastopol, Russia would relent. Russia has not yet done so.

Simultaneously, Zion is moving their base of operations back on over to Europe (The dollar is up on "exit.") from the plundered clean DC US. Zion's proxy war in the Ukraine with Russia is negatively effecting Europe as they are in the process of doing this. And so, the face saving Trump rhetoric. Zion though, may loose the industrial Donets Basin, but still retain control of the "bread basket" that is the eastern Ukraine.

Domestically, his mandate, one of many, is to be seen as super negative toward Latinos and "illegals," so that the Repub. disguised neocons can then take a more reconciliatory tone, and bring them into the fold right under the noses of the "heartland" evangelical Christian sheeple.

Of course you don't have to agree, but you certainly don't seem to understand that it is all lies--All the time. Figuring out the real meaning and direction of it all is the hard part. But then the real motivation for my post is to generate thought, not agreement. If people can be induced to throw off power's shroud of indoctrination and start thinking, the truth will take care of itself.

Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..

 

Further validation that Zion is moving their base of ops. over to Europe is the fact that the only military in the world being forced to integrate gays, and now trannies, is the DC US military. This will destroy morale and discipline, the desired goal. Zion does not want to leave a viable force and challenger behind when the time comes. They desire the DC US military to be a hollowed out shell, making it easier to install foreign potentates to run the DC US fiefdom for Zion from Europe This also serves to further rile up the neocon non-thinking "heartland" sheeple for Sheeple Census 2016.

Hillary Clinton is not a person, she is a Corporation, there is a difference. People don't go into politics and come out with millions, only corporations do. Hillary & Bill Inc. is a very wealthy Corporation that offshores their assets to avoid tax like all the others do. Hillary & Bill Inc has Corporate Lawyers, Corporate Bank accounts, and Corporate Marketing companies to market their books, journalism articles, and talk circuit paid speeches. These individuals wanted their only daughter to become an investment banker on Wall Street, but the rug rat wanted nothing of it when she witnessed what Kim Kardashian was making with arse photos.

Ringling Brothers & Barnum & Bailey Circus always starts out with the clown show whilst the patrons get seated if I remember their show correctly. In this regard, Donald Rump takes the stage before Bush & Clitoris. This way all the genitals are represented by Lady Liberty's 'ass/rump', 'bush/vagina', 'Clinton/Clitoris', as they pontificate over their possible Ponzi Presidency, and whether Pope Ponzi Climate Change will support them as USA Pontiff in chief given the Carbon Credit/Cap n' Trade Ponzification of the American electorate over the last while.

I think he's already said that Ukraine is Europe's issue if they think it is an issue.

Problem is that the aggressive policy is driven by DC not EU.

Maidan would have probably still happened without Cookie Woman but it would have likely ended with just some young people protesting. The Ukrainian elections were only months away. There was no need to overthrow the previous regime. He would have been tossed out by the voters.

It sure would have been better for everyone involved. ... except the vulture that want to scavenge Ukraine carcass for personal gains. Hope they fail and Ukraine get on track somehow.

The legal and illegal immigrants to the U.S. generally do not benefit the average U.S. citizen. Various special interest groups benefit, as usual. With the current employment rate in the U.S. (and I mean the real one) why should more folks be allowed in to compete in the labor market? If you are a corporate employer, that is good....if you are a simple tax paying citizen, not so.

 

One thing I do really object to about Trump's comments is his gross categorization of Mexican illegal immigrants. They are not all criminals...many are very hardworking individuals trying to support their families. Trump might wish to drive around the ag areas in California and see just who does the really hardwork to produce the food the entire nation enjoys. These same folks are the ones that have to come face to face with the criminal gang bangers.

 

My modest proposal to stop the criminals from repeatedly coming back here across the border (and also to save on California's taxes), is to subcontract our state prison system to North Korea. Criminals who are caught and turn out to be non-U.S. citizens would qualify for this special program. I am sure that Dear Leader can run a prison at about 1/10 what it costs here in CA.

I would like to see Carly Fiorina in the debate.  I think she would do a good job of scratching Hillary's eyes out.

To any and all Donald Trump voters... You do realize he's a Team Hillary plant?  Aside from immigration, he is a typical New York liberal on most issues.  He's given as much money to the donkeys as to the elephants.  His Chima position is about the same as Bernie Sanders, you know, the socialist.

His vocal anti-immigration are exactly the caricature of leftist propaganda on GOP views on the issue, which are a false construct to create a wedge issue with a key voting block.

If you're buying his crap, you're a Team Hillary useful idiot.

You're playing the same tune as the MSM, the Democrats, and the establishment GOP.  I won't say you are in good company but you get judged by the company you keep.

Mexican government probably has an opening for you.

Trump is the Ross Perot for this election cycle.

If trump is still getting headlines, but no "respect" then he is being set-up to be the "wild card" independent that will strip votes from the Clinton challenger.

The best things we can all do is not even talk about Trump and maybe it will go away.

The number one priority is to keep Paul from the nomination. They can work with anyone else - meaning Bush/Clinton.

This is all about dividing the vote so that one of the chosen "moderates" can win the primaries folks!

The reason Trump is ahead in the polls is that what he says, resonates with the people of the country and the others are offering the same old moderate crap they always have.

Trump wouldn't be a worse president than the MARXIST FILTH we now have in office, or his friends.

The media are all Marxist all the time. Their job is to attack anyone else and elected MARXISTS to power. They are more than a little concerned that Trump could be for real and they might not be able to stop him so easily.

Well, If DT happens to become too popular and succumbs to "unfotunate circumstances", it appears the perpatrators have a patsy (el Chapo jr) on the standby ready to take the fall.

Trump cuts through the news speak with SOME obvious truths along with typical politician vagueness so of coarse he rides a wave of popularity. People get tired of being told over and over that we should just allow Mexicans to come here without any restrictions even though we have systemic unemployment problems and oddly enough no one is talking about open northern boarders. Nope just the southern border. Funny that....

We all entertain our own delusions about who should be President. Who best represents our own point of view. But with all the nonsense spewed from the infotainment programming devices who can really believe anything coming from a politician? We all know they lie as easily as they breath yet we obsess over this or that who would be best etc. etc. My own delusion would be Rand Paul as President but I often ask myself if he were to be elected would he really be able to reverse the long road the US has been on. The answer is likely not. Would he be just another President doing the bidding for someone else?

So really what does it matter who is elected President? Can anyone give me a rational, reality based answer as to why it would matter?

Wedge:

Got to go with Rand.  He's the only one whose election might mean real change.

But what do you think realistically Paul can or would do? Ending electronic data collection? Not likely. End foreign entanglements? Not likely. Return to sound money? LOL no not going to happen. Rand has a family that I'm sure he wants to remain a part of their lives. Besides, lets say he made sound money a big issue after he got elected. And for the sake of argument lets say he did not crash into a mountain in Marine 1 "tragically" while making sound money a big issue. A return to sound money would mean severe hardship for the country and world for that matter at least for a while. By the way it would have to be a world wide return to sound money. Of coarse we would all be better off down the road but you're just not going to convince the short sighted morons in the US to accept the short hardship for future prosperity.

Or, he gets elected and proposes a return to sound money and gets support for it but on closer inspection it really isn't sound money. That would be a very likely scenario. Most people don't really understand how money works anyway.

Again, tell me why it matters?

Donald Trump on V. V. Putin:

“Putin has no respect for our president whatsoever. He’s got tremendous popularity in Russia, they love what he’s doing, they love what he represents, I was over in Moscow two years ago and I will tell you – you can get along with those people and get along with them well. You can make deals with those people. Obama can’t.

“I would be willing to bet I would have a great relationship with Putin. It’s about leadership.”

This Constitutional Conservative is voting for Rand Paul.

If we even end up having a 2016 election, that is.

JADE HELM starts tomorrow, and here's what we know so far:

* Media is not allowed to cover it (no embedded reporters).

* The COUNTER JADE HELM facebook pages have been wiped clean.

* DAHBOO7 is reporting that major power outages via SPEC OPS are planned as part of JADE HELM in the ANT HILL and Tejon Ranch areas of CA.

The US prez does not run the US Govt
The US parliament does not run the US Govt

Its the banksters & corporations lobby that runs it.

Any US prez who tries to do things right,

I've said it here before the recent (in the last month) interviews Trump has given on all the big networks are PURE COMEDY GENIUS. 

His put downs are great, the pimping of his properties and business deals are hilarious, and the best one is when he's talking about building a wall', 'nobody builds a wall better than Trump'.

Take some time to listen, you'll see how great they are.

Don't worry about the blue for Hillary.  I do searches on that old hag too, but it's just to keep up on all the dishonesty, dirt and cronyism.  Really, this bitch is carrying so much baggage you have to google her at least 3X/week to keep up on it all.

It is great reading.  She's always getting caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

Impartial analysis of the redparty-blueparty paradigm and how party leaders & high-dollar lobbyists manage the primary election process: http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/07/13/why-i-support-donald-trum...

THE HEADLINE READS: "Why I support Donald Trump's campaign--and it's probably not what you think."

Among the interesting pictures in the article, Richard Trumka & Tom Donohue are shown seated at the same table. Strong delusion is growing stronger. It ain't too nice when your soul is lost. These fatcats are gonna get burned if they don't straighten up.

"And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie that they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2nd Thessalonians 2:11, 12

He may do alot better than anyone expects. The silent majority is tired of remaining silent while watching the daily systematic dismantling of this Country. For those people, he is a refreshing change. At least the man has a pair and maybe a backbone to boot. That's a lot more than I have seen from anyone else.
