Poll: Republicans want party more like Trump, not Ryan

Donald Trump entered his pow wow with House Speaker Paul Ryan Thursday in the driver's seat, emboldened by a new poll that shows voters want the Republican Party to be more like the real estate tycoon, not the 2012 vice presidential nominee.

Rasmussen reported: "Nearly half (47%) of GOP voters now believe the Republican Party should be more like Trump than like Ryan. Thirty-two percent (32%) disagree and say the GOP should be more like Ryan. Seventeen percent (17%) opt for neither."

The poll is a huge demonstration that Republican voters are not only upset with Washington and Ryan's refusal to endorse the likely GOP presidential nominee, but also are growing wild about Trump.

The poll also showed that 76 percent of Republican voters believe Congress has lost touch with the public.

And the proof of that is the polls findings that many Americans really don't care what Ryan thinks about Trump.

"Thirty-two percent (32%) of likely U.S. voters say it is important to their vote in the upcoming presidential election that Ryan endorses Trump, but that includes only 18% who think it's 'Very Important.' The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 62% rate Ryan's endorsement as unimportant to their vote, with 36% who say it's 'Not At All Important.'" said the survey.

This election is boiling down to the establishment of both parties, the donor class, and the people they have hooked on the dole against the American people.

That’s pretty much it...and Donald Trump by connecting with the people’s frustration has made this happen.

He is a populous, often crass and profane...but I believe he sincerely want to help America turn around and has been saying the things that tens of millions feel will help make that happen.

He is not strictly a conservative or a constitutionalist...though his stated policies are far more conservative than any of the GOPe candidates he defeated.

More GOP Primary voters voted for him than any other GOP Primary presidential candidate in history...so yes, the party...as in the voters...want this to happen.

I believe there are tens of millions of Democrats and independents want it to happen too. He will tie into them as well and they will cross over and vote for him.

I believe it is going to be more than enough...I pray with all my heart and will work to help it happen.

Anyhow...just my thoughts.

Just confirms my departure from the Republican Party.  Any party that thinks Trumpism is the wave of the future is no place for me.

[Nearly half (47%) of GOP voters now believe the Republican Party should be more like Trump than like Ryan. ]

Only 47%?  I guess the party isn't exactly unifying behind Trump.  He and his surrogates are going to have to do more bullying I guess.
