Trump Says He Would Ban Syrian Refugees From Entering US
Carson suggested Trump is “grasping at straws”.
BOCA RATON, Fla. (November 18, 2015) – Donald Trump has doubled the vote of his nearest challenger in Florida, where Hillary Clinton trails in matchups with several GOP frontrunners, according to a new poll by the Florida Atlantic University Business and Economics Polling Initiative (FAU BEPI) in the College of Business. Who knows who they are – a few could be ISIS.
Senor declined to name the “less-than-serious” candidates, but the inference was clear.
Trump and Clinton also took the top spots among members of their own parties when it came to who could handle terrorism best, as Trump topped Marco Rubio, who’s made foreign policy a centerpiece of his campaign, among Republicans.
“Rubio speaks well and he could generate appeal among Latino voters”, said Chris Wicker, vice chairman of the Nevada Democratic Party, referring to Rubio’s background as a Cuban-American raised by working-class parents.
Jeb Bush’s campaign raised $450,000 at a fundraiser in Dallas Monday night, where the former Florida governor and his brother, former President George W. Bush, worked to convince donors that voters will drift away from the outsider candidates now leading the race. However, Trump’s good showing upends an emerging narrative that the Paris shootings and suicide bombings would prompt voters to rethink their support for the real estate billionaire, who leads the field of Republican presidential candidates. This difference may be traced to the importance of social issues: Trump’s followers are much less likely to attend weekly religious services and self-identify as an evangelical Christian. He calls Trump “a leader who has the will, strength and courage to get this country back on track”, adding that he also trusts the GOP front-runner.
Trump’s communication department also confirmed the visit via email. Carson was the choice for 19 percent.
Forty-six percent said they’d prefer someone from outside the political establishment to be the next president, compared to 36 percent who said they prefer someone with experience in elected office. Carson draws the support of religious conservatives and Trump is favored by economic pessimists.
ABC News described the interview as “wide-ranging” and said that Trump’s wife, Melania, joins him for the chat with Walters. Depending on the relative importance of these differences, this may give us hints about how voters’ loyalties may change over time.
“I have actually lost 15 lbs. on the campaign trail”, the Republican presidential candidate told People in a recent interview when asked about his slimmed down figure.
