Donald Trump has a huge advantage no other candidate has had before.
He’ll likely leave every other candidate in the dust.
Donald Trump just hit a new record that makes him virtually unstoppable.
Former President Donald Trump holds an unprecedented lead in the Republican primary.
A Fox News survey released Sunday revealed Trump dominating with 69-percent support among Republican voters. Trump’s support has risen 7 points since November, and he’s gained a staggering 26 points since last February.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is polling second in the race, however, only 12 percent favor him, nine percent for former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, five percent for businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, two percent for former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and just one percent for former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson.
In modern times, every candidate who’s reached 40-percent in national polls by mid-December has won their party’s nomination.
Trump also holds a commanding lead in Iowa and New Hampshire.
The most recent Iowa poll from NBC News and the Des Moines Register found Trump has the support of 51-percent of voters, while DeSantis has 19 percent, and Haley a mere 16 percent. Ramaswamy has 5 percent, Christie 3.7 percent, and Hutchinson 1 percent.
In the latest New Hampshire poll conducted in December by CBS News, Trump sits at 44 percent, Haley at 29 percent, DeSantis at 11 percent, Christie with 10 percent, and Ramaswamy with 7.8 percent.
Trump asked voters in eastern Iowa last week to carry him to a blowout in next month’s Republican caucuses so the Republican Party can focus on beating Joe Biden in the general election.
“We have to put big numbers up, really big numbers,” Trump said. Addressing Iowa voters directly, he said: “We are leading by a lot but you have to go out and vote. That margin of victory is so, so powerful.”
Trump went on to describe the decay that’s happened in Biden’s America – “…where free speech is no longer allowed and where crime is rampant” and where “once revered airports, those beautiful, beautiful airports, are dirty.”
“With you at my side, we will demolish the ‘deep state.’ We will drive out the globalists. We will cast out the communists. We will throw off the sick political class. We will rout the fake news media. We will drain the swamp and we will liberate our country from the tyrants and villains once and for all,” he said, drawing whoops and cheers.
