Donald Trump Becomes The Face Of The GOP As He Surges To Huge Lead In Iowa

A Gravis Marketing poll released on July 31st confirms that Donald Trump has become the face of the Republican Party.

Sure, party insiders and pundits are still trying to distance themselves from Trump’s toxic rhetoric, but much to their chagrin, Republican voters are embracing Trump’s politics of derision and division.

The Gravis Marketing poll found Trump surging to a huge lead in Iowa.

Trump polled at 31 percent in the GOP field, followed by Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker at 15 percent, and former Florida Governor Jeb Bush at 10 percent.

Several other Republican candidates were mired in the single digits.

Donald Trump: Blacks are ‘worse than just about ever’ because Obama ‘set a very low bar’

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump predicted on Sunday that he would win that he would win the black vote because President Barack Obama had set a “poor standard,” which made things worse than “just about ever” for African-Americans.”

“He has set a very low bar and I think it’s a shame for the African-American people,” Trump told ABC’s Jonathan Karl.

“And by the way, he has done nothing for African-Americans. You look at what’s going on, at their income levels, you look at what’s gone on with their youth.”

So what does President Trump intend to do to help black people?

Repugs have screwed black people by failing to expand Medicaid, closing health clinics, intending to kill PP, refusing to raise the minimum wage, etc.

Trump: People Won’t Vote For Another Black President Because Of Obama

Repug establishment really pissed because Trump not using a dog whistle, but a very audible human whistle, as the Repug base is exposed as racist, xenophobic, nativist, and just ing nasty.

Nixon/A er/Ailes racist Southern Strategy (turn southern racist Dems into racist Repug base) is biting them in the ass.

I'm surprised the 75% is so low

Forget Everything Else. Look at Trump's Net Favorables

Monmouth has polled the evolving GOP primary in April, June and July. And over that period Donald Trump's favorable ratings have gone from 28% to 52%, while his unfavorables have gone from 56% to 35%. To put that a different way he's gone from a -28% net approval to a +17% net approval . In other words, that's a 45 point shift in three months.

It's one of the truisms of politics that high negatives are close to impossible to change, especially if you're a well known person. While new (negative) facts can drive your numbers down, it's very hard to find ones that drive them back up. Like many truisms, this one is bogus. It's difficult to recover from high negatives.

But it happens all the time.

That said, this is a massive, massive shift, especially for someone who is extremely well-known to the public and must have very high name recognition numbers.

Donald Trump pranked by Harvard ‘fraudsters’ and hacker tribute to Jon Stewart


Members of the satirical Harvard Lampoon fooled Republican front-runner Donald Trump into thinking the university’s newspaper endorsed his presidential campaign, The Hill reported.

“The students who perpetrated this are fraudsters and liars, but frankly it was a waste of only a few minutes,” a campaign spokesperson said after the ruse was discovered. “Mr. Trump attended the great Wharton School of Finance, a school that has more important things to do.”


Lampoon members designed a fake website claiming to belong to its archrival, theHarvard Crimson, and posted an editorial calling the real estage mogul a job creator because of the “creative domino effect” generated by his reality show, Celebrity Apprentice.

Trump Says He Heroically Avoided Capture in Vietnam by Staying in U.S.


AMES, IOWA — Presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed a little-known episode of personal heroism from his youth on Saturday, telling an Iowa audience that he narrowly avoided capture in Vietnam by remaining in the United States for the duration of the war.

“The Cong were after me,” Trump said, visibly stirred by the memory. “And then, just in the nick of time, I got my deferment.”

The former reality-show star said he had never shared his record as a war hero before because “I don’t like to boast.”

He said that he only disclosed the episode now because “the way this nation treats our deferment veterans is a disgrace.”

Trump complained that he received no official commendation or medal for his heroism, calling the lack of recognition “shameful.”

“Those brave Americans who, like me, avoided being captured by not serving at all—we are the true heroes,” he said.

Trump’s tale of valor appeared to move many members of his audience, some of whom waited in line after his speech to thank him for his lack of service.

Economists dump on Trump boast to bring jobs back from China

Donald Trump vows to bring back the millions of American jobs lost to China and other foreign compe ors if voters put him in the White House.

Economists say he wouldn't stand a chance: Trump's boundless self-confidence is no match for the global economic forces that took those jobs away.

Since the beginning of 2000, the U.S. economy has lost 5 million manufacturing jobs. A study published last year by the National Bureau of Economic Research found that between 2 million and 2.4 million jobs were lost to compe ion from China from 1999 to 2011.

Announcing his presidential bid June 16, Trump declared: "I'll bring back our jobs from China, from Mexico, from Japan, from so many places. I'll bring back our jobs, and I'll bring back our money."

Economists were unimpressed. "It's completely implausible," says former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Alan Blinder, a Princeton University economist who has studied the offshoring of American jobs.

Companies shifted low-skill jobs to China in the 2000s because American workers couldn't compete with Chinese workers earning around $1 an hour. Now China itself is losing low-wage manufacturing jobs to poorer countries such as Bangladesh and Vietnam.

If America tried to block foreign-made products and make everything at home, prices would skyrocket and foreign countries would likely retaliate by blocking U.S. goods from their countries. "You can't turn back the clock," Blinder says.

But there's an even bigger problem for those who want to restore U.S. manufacturing employment (now 12.3 million) to its 1979 peak of 19.6 million: Technology has taken many of those jobs for good. Today's high-tech factories employ a fraction of the workers they used to. General Motors, for example, employed 600,000 in the 1970s. It has 216,000 now — and sells more cars than ever.

"No matter who becomes president," says economist David Autor of the Massachusetts Ins ute of Technology, "I cannot foresee a scenario where 5 million additional manufacturing jobs ... reappear in the U.S. in the decades
ahead."
