National Republican Primary Polls [UPDATE]

POLL AVERAGE

REGISTERED REPUBLICAN POLL

What if he actually wins the primaries? WHAT IF HE ACTUALLY WINS THE GENERAL ELECTION?!

All this guy talks about is one fucking issue?! Are Conservatives really this retarded?

[edit] Trump support surges. Pretty disheartening to see his support grow after shitting on POWs. GOP is officially batshit retarded, no excuses PSU.

What the fuck

Is this real

I had no idea there were people who actually took trump seriously as a candidate

My theory is this is all just a fad and support for him would drop sooner or later, especially when debate time comes around. I mean come on, if he's not exposed by then, America may be fucked.

Luciana · July 15, 2015, 11:25:41 PM

The Republicans are fucked if THIS guy won.

But a lot happens from now to the actual primaries and the candidate.

I hope Jeb wins it and actually forces the Repubs to the left a bit. Maybe start a proper revolution in the Republican party. What happened to the Republicans of old? When did the Democrats become the pragmatic party.

Nick McIntyre · July 16, 2015, 02:31:28 AM

Hahahahaha, oh Jesus I hope either Trump or Bush make it past the Republican Primaries, especially Trump. I don't think Donald is serious about this, but if he makes it into the General Election, it'll be one hell of a show against Sanders or (UUUGHHH) Clinton.

Alternative Facts · July 16, 2015, 07:33:19 AM

To give you some perspective, in July/August 2011, some of the top GOP candidates were Michelle Baachman (out after Iowa), Hermain Cain (out in December), and Rick Perry (Out in February).

Early polls, especially 5-6 months out, mean almost nothing.

More Than Mortal · July 16, 2015, 08:08:25 AM

It won't last.

Hopefully Bush takes it.

This has to be fake. Please.

There's "I disagree", then there's "HOLY SHIT Y'ALL HAVE GONE OFF THE DEEP END" which the GOP clearly has.

Yeah, but when I look at it, both sides have gone off the deep end. You only think you haven't gone of the deep end because we're discussing your chosen candidate, which exactly the same thought process Trump supporters have.

2016 is just looking to be a shit election year all round at this rate (although, as Icy said, it could all change), because neither side can see just how fucking nuts they are. If it ends up with the presidency being a race between Sanders and Trump (which I highly doubt, but I wouldn't rule it out, per se) and were I American I'd just vote for a third party.

Pretty tough to equate the two. Trump, who is calling illegals rapists and such, is far from the same as Sanders calling for single payer healthcare and raising the minimum wage.

That's practically how it is every election year. No one really sounds like a good choice ever, just vote for the least crap candidate. I don't know how it is in other countries but it's becoming more and more of a farce over here.

Sanders is still a fucking lunatic for both of those things.

And then of course there's all the HURR DURR WALL STREET rhetoric that he doesn't stop with, and his bullshit infrastructure and tax plans. Trump is just par the course when it comes to the Republicans, and so is Sanders with the Democrats. Trump is no doubt more reprehensible as a person, but that's just because he's picked the conservative poison; Sanders' liberal poison is no less toxic.

Supporting single payer healthcare is lunatic-level, now?

holy shit fuck. I give up.

I was thinking more about his minimum wage proposals, but yeah single-payer is pretty fucking crappy at the end of the day. If Britain can't administer a single-payer system with any competence, then the US government sure as shit can't. SHI systems like those in Germany have much better outcomes, usually for lower costs.

I don't think you understand how fucking shit our healthcare system was before the ACA, and we've only taken a baby step since implementing it.

Yeah, I do. But so what? Doesn't mean you throw it all to the wind and go single-payer "just 'cause". Hell, you could probably make several reforms to the US healthcare system to improve it drastically, without changing the entire system.

The problem with the system was the system.
