So how much will Trump's poll numbers increase after this latest bigoted crap?

I say he goes into the low forties.

If he turns around on the double down and calls for interment camps for Muslims, he'll break 50%.

What is your prediction?

He's likely secured the Republican nomination with this.

On CNN today they interviewed some of his supporters, they were talking about exterminating the families of Muslim terrorists to stop their blood lines. Chilling times, pure fascism and many Americans are loving it.

Muslims, he will go into the 60% range on GOP polls.

That may even increase his numbers, since Ryan isn't too popular.

I don't look at RW polls. They are useless. Republicans no matter who they pick it's going to be someone horrid and that person is going to get creamed in the GE.

Especially if the media dares be hostile which it appears they're being (even the MSM is looking reasonable on this now).

I haven't seen one, I mean one likely GOP voting friend come out against Trump. He's hit on the basic fact pure racial hatred is the only thing that fuels GOP voters. You can't be a big enough bigot for the likely GOP voter.
