Donald Trump, inevitable GOP nominee?
// Personal Liberty Digest™
As GOP presidential hopeful continues to add voters to his base, the former top ranking official at the Republican National Committee says the door has closed on opportunities for the political establishment to quash his campaign.
Speaking to talk radio host Rich Zeoli, Former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele said he believes Trump is unbeatable with the current GOP field.
"I'm gonna say this and I know people are going to scratch their heads and go 'what?' but I don't think he can [be stopped]," Steele said. "That window has closed and I think Donald Trump effectively closed it over the last couple of months.
Noting Trump's continued strength in polls, Steele challenged: "You tell me who stops him and when do they do it."
The seasoned political observer said Trump's continued success will be a result of his long-standing momentum in the GOP primary race combined with the candidate's evident efforts to add more seriousness to his campaign.
"Come on, you've had eight months. You've had eight months to take him down," Steele said to Republicans who dislike Trump.
He added that Trump is changing his approach to show voters more "maturity" and "demonstrate to people that I can be president."
"I think he showed a little bit of that [during the last debate]," Steele said.
Meanwhile, new reports on presidential polling results show that Trump is doing a particularly good job of drawing the support of "lost" voters, people who haven't voted in years but are motivated to head to the polls because of the businessman's unconventional candidacy.
Polling out from Reuters/Ipsos predicts that "lost" voters will account for about 1 out of every 10 votes cast in the GOP primaries.
Reuters reports: "27.3 percent of these 'new' voters said they would vote for Trump, higher than his poll numbers among independents and Republicans who regularly vote."
