Fox
News is desperately trying to divide up the other conservative vote so Trump
cannot out duel their own DC establishment candidate like, Jeb Bush, Marcus
Rubio, etc. Because Mike Huckabee, Carla Florida, Jeb Bush, and Marcus Rubio, and
the others have been getting special attention from Fox News asking them in
real time some very easy questions about the political news events that the Fox
News Amigos can look good saying.
Hoping to divide enough of the conservative vote between
those candidates holding Donald Trumps under 50% going into the Republican
convention.
Who Fox News talks to the most about
politics is the obvious truth about who Fox News is pulling for. So Fox News
and the RNC has become one and the same, as if we the American people are not
noticing that TV sleight-of-hand.

Trump widens lead over U.S. Republican presidential field: Reuters poll
By Emily Stephenson
August 21, 2015 6:44 PM WASHINGTONRepublican Donald Trump is pulling away from the pack in the race for the party's U.S. presidential nomination, widening his lead over his closest rivals in the past week, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Friday.
Republican voters show no signs they are growing weary of the brash real estate mogul, who has dominated political headlines and the 17-strong Republican presidential field with his tough talk about immigration and insults directed at his political rivals. The candidates are vying to be nominated to represent their party in the November 2016 general election.
Nearly 32 percent of Republicans surveyed online said they backed Trump, up from 24 percent a week earlier, the opinion poll found. Trump had nearly double the support of his closest competitor, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who got 16 percent. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson was third at 8 percent.
Even when Trump was pitted directly in the poll against just his top two competitors, 44 percent backed him. Bush won about 29 percent of respondents, and Carson 25 percent.
"He's not taking any guff from anybody," Dewey Stedman, 70, a Republican from East Wenatchee, Washington, said of the publicity-loving billionaire. "If you don't have something in your brains, you're not going to have billions of dollars."
Trump has driven the debate on the campaign trail with a hard-line immigration plan that calls for the deportation of undocumented immigrants, amendment of the Constitution to end automatic citizenship for all people born in the United States, and construction of a wall along the border with Mexico.
