With favorables improving, unfavorables decreasing and two-thirds of the electorate now believing Trump can win the nomination, the latest YouGov National Poll shows Donald Trump dominating the rest of the field.

This is the eighth consecutive regional and national poll with Jeb Bush in single digits; a devastating reality for the RNC/GOPe machine.
The debate this week will be their final opportunity to save Jeb – the pressure is astronomical, and you can guarantee Fiorina and Rubio will be called upon to deliver the goods and take out Trump.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, doesn’t even need the debate.  Full poll results below: (more…)

Shorter Version: “Nice campaign you’ve got there Mr. Trump, it’d be a shame if something happened to it“…

The overall problem for the GOPe is reflected in this poll release from New Hampshire.

Jeb Bush took the “day off” from campaigning on September 2nd (ie. political code-speak for Bush met with campaign team to assess damage and strategy session). He was spotted that night (in Philly) headed to New Hampshire – We anticipated the reasoning:

FYI – Jeb back in New Hampshire tonight, amid new polling showing John Kasich has surged beyond Bush in support !! https://t.co/EpYQcITnvj

When you follow the nuance, you can predict the “public polls” in advance, by paying attention to the activity of the candidates. (more…)

The Survey USA Election Poll Shows:

Donald Trump 45%
Hillary Clinton 40%

The demographics within the POLL affirm the content of the people in the video (HatTip IAPTT):

• Donald Trump is doing exceedingly well among blacks with 25% (Historically Republicans normally get 10%) also with 16% undecided, Trump could break 30%.
• Trump is doing OK among Hispanics, far better than media is selling, with 30% supporting and 19% undecided; A generally fair expectation could get him to an outstanding 40%. (Romney got around 30%; G.W. Bush got around 40%)
• Hillary Clinton is dominating among the high school education or less group while Trump wins the 4-year college and above crowd.
• Donald Trump has a big lead among “political junkies” while Clinton does better with lower information voters.  [Full Poll Data]

Basically this poll completely disproves the MSM/GOPe argument that Trump is a disaster for Republican chances to increase their share of the minority vote.  The opposite is exactly true, Trump incredibly broadens the base.  If anything, Trump needs to sharpen his message a little to increase his numbers among white voters !

Virginia Representative Dave Brat is the House conservative wolverine who took down Majority Leader Eric Cantor in 2014. A plain spoken constitutional and fiscal conservative who is EXACTLY the type of citizen legislature we need in Washington DC.

“Brat and Congressman Gary Palmer (R-AL6) sat down for an in-studio interview with Yellowhammer Radio host Cliff Sims to discuss the current climate in DC, some of the hottest political topics of the day, and the 2016 Presidential race.” (link)

Listen to the interview, it’s well worth your time. I’ll bet you find yourself listening to the entire 14 minutes because it’s profoundly refreshing to hear a wolverine discuss current DC politics without being attached to the GOPe machine.

Obviously the “budget talk” is near and dear to many, myself included – and it’s darn refreshing to hear we have representatives who actually ‘GET IT’. And, coincidentally, how those oft-diminished wolverines view Donald Trump’s Presidential efforts as possible light at the end of the tunnel.

Two Labor Day Polls Portend ‘Splodey Heads For The Anti-Trump Advocates….

Earlier today Gallup released a poll showing that Trump is the most heavily favored candidate (63% Approval Rating) amid Republicans.

A devastating defeat for the establishment GOP (GOPe) who are seeking to push their preferred candidate Jeb Bush.   Such substantive favorable opinion of candidate Trump puts the RNC/GOPe in a difficult position as they plot to begin their collective assault against the unpalatable frontrunner.
But tonight the news for the Vichy Republican crowd is infinite degrees worse.  As they plot the best course of Trump’s annihilation – national polls now show Donald Trump defeating every Democrat party candidate by substantial margins. (more…)

… because he says: “Make America Great Again”! And when Trump says that I hear:
Someone who gives a damn about America, without apology; which is more valuable to me than a perfected highly-rehearsed skill set of 30 second sound bites and white paper policy instructions.
From my perspective any average hard-working American could eat every one of these pinky ring candidates’ lunches, all of them; and if they want to go down the intellectual superiority path… well, that stuff is useless. (more…)

Two dynamics will portend whether Wall Street allows Hillary Clinton to continue with her presidential ambitions.  1.) The capability of Jeb Bush to get back to the needed 15-20% GOPe program, and 2.) the necessary removal of Donald Trump.
If the RNC/GOPe strategy to destroy Trump fails, Hillary will be dispatched quickly.  Those who control the power influences will never allow the 2016 race to be Clinton VS Trump.  The money handlers always seek control of outcomes and Hillary is not strong enough to defeat Trump.
If Trump can defeat the RNC machine (yet to be determined), Clinton will be replaced by Joe Biden who will -most likely- be directed toward victory with the addition of Elizabeth Warren as VP.  This is not some Nostradamus-type insight, it’s just simply Wall Street and Dohonues’ best play.
Therefore Team Clinton, including Bill, have a vested interest in the destruction of Trump.
For Wall Street trillions are at stake; and for the Clinton graft machine et al(Clinton Foundation finances) their entire Vichy Livelihood is at stake.  This helps set the stage to comprehend the severity of what is soon to come…. (more…)

There is a solid argument to be made that forcing Donald Trump to sign the Republican Pledge was step one in this RNC/GOPe strategy. He’s now locked in the Thunderdome!  
When you fully understand the scope of how the Republican National Committee organized the entire road map to elect Jeb Bush, you begin to understand why Reince Priebus needed to lock the door behind Trump before unleashing the thugs upon him.
Hundreds of millions will be spent on this RNC/GOPe effort to destroy Trump. It will be unlike any scorched earth campaign ever witnessed.  The brutality of the intended targeting is so severe, even the New York Times is willing to broadcast the bloodbath.

New York Times –  Quiet conversations have begun in recent weeks among some of the Republican Party’s biggest donors and normally competing factions, all aimed at a single question: How can we stop Donald Trump?

Republican strategists and donors have assembled focus groups to test negative messages about Mr. Trump. They have amassed dossiers on his previous support for universal health care and higher taxes. They have even discussed the creation of a “super PAC” to convince conservatives that Mr. Trump is not one of them.
