- July 1st 2015: 19% Bush, 12% Trump, ..., 3% Christie -- (link) - Max Jun 27, 11:51 21
  - everyone cites this poll even though Trump only announced on June 16th of 2015. once the first debate happened it was over -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 11:55 3
    - also Trump at 47% is light-years ahead of where Jeb! was as his baseline -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 11:59 2
      - I link it because it's data from the same time frame. The landscape is different, but it's also an example of not setting in stone any leads. - Max Jun 27, 12:09 1
        
        like IDGAF if Meatball Ron flames out (and hope that he does spectacularly) but from pure game theory it's a dumb way to light your donor's $$ on fire -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 12:17
  - It amazes me they’re doing the exact same mistake as last time. No one is playing offense against the man. - Will Hunting 🍔🍟🍔🍹🍷 Jun 27, 11:52 16
    - His 50+% of Republican support isn't going to vote for you if you attack. The strategy is to be there if something does wind up disqualifying him. -- nm - Dano Jun 27, 12:07 5
      - His statement about shooting someone on 5th Avenue and not losing support is even more true now than it was when he said it. - Dano Jun 27, 12:11 4
        
        nobody's ever really tested the alternative strategy yet though so who knows what would actually happen if they did -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 12:15 2
        
        I think some have tried, and immediately gotten their head kicked in. - Roger More Jun 27, 12:26 1
        
        nah they always framed it as “Donald’s not the REAL conservative” instead of “Don’s a racist, rapey crook who has no business in public office” -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 12:30

        if 55%-60% of your party wants someone other than the guy with 45%, better off chasing the change demo than the dead enders (Obama's 2008 strategy) -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 12:05 3
        
        I question the 55%-60%. I would like to believe it, but don't. -- nm - Spawn Jun 27, 12:08 2
        
        even if it's 50%/50%, take your shots. literally what do you have to lose other than dropping out earlier than you might have otherwise. - hollywood big shot Jun 27, 12:10 1
