Is This The One Policy Behind
Trump's Victories?
Donald Trump, in predictable fashion, swept all five states in yesterday's
I-95 primary, defeating Ted Cruz and John Kasich by a wide margin.
Why so much success? Exit polls point to one policy:
What was once furious Republican opposition to Donald Trump's proposal
to temporarily ban foreign Muslims from entering the U.S. has turned to
virtual silence in the face of widespread GOP voter approval.
Exit polls from the nation's biggest Republican primaries show impressive
majority support for Trump's proposal. In the latest example, in Pennsylvania
Tuesday, 69 percent of GOP voters said they support "temporarily banning
Muslims who are not U.S. citizens from entering the U.S." In New York
last week, the number was 68 percent.
In Wisconsin, 69 percent supported Trump's idea. In Florida, 64 percent.
Georgia, 68 percent. Ohio, 65 percent. Michigan, 63 percent. New Hampshire,
65 percent. Texas, 67 percent.
This isn't rocket science. Part of what resonates with voters is Trump's ability
to restate exactly what's on their minds. Millions of Americans are concerned
about the dangers posed by illegal immigration and the president's casual
disregard for our laws. Trump refuses to tiptoe when articulating a solution,
and for millions of voters, that's incredibly refreshing.
