Related: About this forumTYT: Trump Reclaims Top Spot In Republican Polls
The numbers on the Republican side are very interesting. A new poll shows Donald Trump making a huge comeback against Ben Carson, gaining seventeen points in just a week. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian (The Point), and John Iadarola (Think Tank), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A new poll finds Donald Trump surging well above his chief 2016 rival Ben Carson after week that included a Saturday Night Live appearance and a GOP debate.
Forty-two percent of likely GOP voters supported Trump in a five-day rolling poll released Friday by Reuters/Ipsos, up from 25 percent last week. Carson was also polling around 25 percent last week and his support among GOP voters has since dipped slightly.
Meanwhile, Sen. Marco Rubio's support among primary voters has remained level at 10 percent, despite a debate performance that was cheered by establishment Republicans."*

athlete's foot. Wash it, spray it, scrub it and STILL you have...Trump.
Seriously, whomever the Dem is (yay Bernie!), we're gonna have to work real hard to make sure Rump doesn't make a gameshow of our government.

And Rubio being Backup Plan A doesn't help even a little bit.
