Someone (YOU) who is "not easily swayed" by indisputable facts because he refuses to accept/admit that he was wrong is "thick headed". And, I'm talking about the empty head sitting on your shoulders only!!
Anyway.........I agree with what Hillary Clinton said at a New Hampshire Town Hall Meeting when asked about Trump today.
"It's entertainment. It's all entertainment. I think he's having the time of his life. Getting up on that stage, you know, being up on that stage, saying whatever he wants to say, getting people excited, both for and against him", she said.
I also agree with her that Marco Rubio's statement about denying abortions to victims of rape and incest, along with Jeb Bush's statement that "women's health is over-funded", were more offensive than anything Trump said (and that Rubio's/Bush's positions in that regard are simply reflective of the GOP as a whole).
Trump's Republican poll rating 24 hours after the debate was unchanged; he didn't increase his support nor did he lose any support.
But, after he cried about not being treated "fairly" and "appropriately" by Megyn Kelly, at least one poll of Republicans and right-leaning Independents shows his favorable rating over 30%. That says more about those particular voters than it does Trump, IMO.
In any event, the number of registered voters who say they see Trump unfavorably remains high — 52 percent of all voters say they see him in a negative light. That makes Trump currently both the most popular candidate within the Republican field and the least popular candidate Republicans could nominate for next year’s general election.
Will he run as an Independent if he doesn't implode and is still not nominated by the GOP? We shall see.
