Poll: Republicans side with Trump over Ryan for GOP's vision

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Yes, the media wanted [hoped?] that the voters just mirrorred Trump's views, when in fact it has always been Trump who mirrored his voters' views. As simple as that

Marine Le Pen Ivanka Trump, feminist nationalist and lite version of her father, will bring new changes to Front National GOP and make them likable again

Clearly no sign of buyer's remorse among Republicans.  This confirms my belief that Trump would easily win the nomination again if there were a rematch.

But that's because he's already the nominee, and so many Republicans have talked themselves into thinking he's great.  If Rubio were the nominee instead, then Republican voters would have similarly favorable views about him, etc.

Also, assuming a Clinton victory next month, Trump will no longer be the party's standard bearer on Nov. 9th, and so many of these folks who nominally prefer him now could well then say that they prefer Ryan's vision, since Trump will no longer be the party leader.

Donald Trump will always be the de facto leader of the GOP, whether the donor class likes it or not.

Disagree.  I really don't think Republican voters will care much about him two years from now.  No more than they care about Mitt Romney now anyway.

Do you really think that some part of Romney base was in love with him? Plurality of GOP voters might very well end up caring about Trump. If he plays well and smart.
