Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.) follows at 13 percent – a 6-point increase from the outlet’s last survey more than a month ago – with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush steady at 10 percent. The survey’s margin of error was plus or minus 4.4 percentage points.
At first, Trump appeared to be unfazed after El Chapo’s reported threats, and he even was quoted as saying, “El Chapo and the Mexican drug cartels use the border unimpeded like it was a vacuum cleaner, sucking drugs and death right into the U.S. We get the killers, drugs and crime, they get the money”.
Debate ratings would indeed collapse. Rick Santorum (R-PA) continues to decline. Trump is set to roll out a tax plan Monday, September 28, he says will reduce rates for lower and middle-income families as well as corporations, while increasing rates for a few, like hedge fund managers who he says dont pay enough.
Trump, meanwhile, continued to defend his own performance during the second GOP debate, describing Rubio on CNN as “a total lightweight….” Rand Paul of Kentucky were both at 1 percent; and 18 percent were undecided.
According to CBSNews.com, “Trump leads among a wide array of Republican primary voters”. Trump asked, citing his lead over other GOP candidates in the polls.
According to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll in the key state of New Hampshire, Trump’s lead has come down from 16 to five points in one month. Favorability is important because it can be a reliable indicator of a candidate’s room to grow his support with the electorate.
“As the leading candidate for the Republican nomination, the fact that, if elected, you intend to disrupt the lives of so many millions of undocumented immigrants and their families needs to be explained to those people“, he added.
The drubbing of Trump as a greedy capitalist was not custom-made for the real estate mogul – the show is a remake of “Brokers”, a satire on the excesses of high finance that has run in Mexico City over the past few years. The club adamantly denies this charge. Plus, Trump and the club have been embroiled in a feud stemming from a meeting between the candidate and David McIntosh, the organization’s president, back in the spring.
