A Fox News poll taken similarly after the debate showed Trump with 39% support. His comments at the fundraiser, an audio copy of his remarks obtained by The New York Times, were the first time he said them in the context of Trump and neurosurgeon Ben Carson. “Quelling an insurgency like Trump’s may require college-educated Republicans, who are now fractured four ways, to unite behind a single candidate while non-degree-holders splinter”. Or, you can select a more-sensible candidate – and keep your Trump crush to yourself. Ted Cruz is snapping at his heels. Former Carson backers re-interviewed this month reported moving more to Cruz than Trump; of the Iowans re-contacted who had supported Carson in November and left him, almost half – 47 percent – went to Cruz and 37 percent to Trump. Presumably, the two candidates can’t profit equally from the Trump insult machine forever, but that’s a question for after the holidays.

The next drive, BYU was moving the chains, but Magnum threw yet another interception and again, it was Carter who picked him off. BYU’s defense was stout, keeping the Utes to under 100 yards of offense and effectively choking out Wilson’s passing options.

As for the GOP front-runner, Bloomberg points out that the latest controversy “pits him squarely against Clinton for a pre-Christmas news cycle before voters tune out for the holidays, creating a veneer that the two are already nominees facing off in a general election”. But not only does the poll find Trump losing to the former secretary of state by 7 points if the election were held today, it also finds him losing to Democratic Socialist Sen.
“They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists”, she said.
Trump has 28 percent of the GOP pack, with Sen. Trump’s campaign responded this week by insisting that as president, he wouldn’t kill journalists: “I hate some of these people, but I’d never kill them, “he said”. And he’s now in second place nationally with 18 percent on average-up 11 points since Halloween. Evidence for that includes the large crowds he’s been attracting and the huge viewership numbers for the Republican debates: 13 million to 24 million, far above the previous record of 8 million.
About 57 percent of respondents were registered voters, with those evenly divided among Democrats, Republicans and independents. Among those without degrees, 46% back Trump, the same share as in November. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) Cruz is attempting to consolidate the conservative and evangelical Christian wings of the party, and said he envisions a showdown with Rubio, who would represent so-called establishment Republicans.
