The Marist NH poll had Trump's support dropping in the part of their sample post-McCain comments.  But this one is entirely post-McCain, and he's still at 24%.

The Marist NH poll had Trump's support dropping in the part of their sample post-McCain comments.  But this one is entirely post-McCain, and he's still at 24%.

The sample size of that Marist poll part was rather small though. Maybe Trump never really dropped.

His unfavorables among Republicans may have risen somewhat since his initial campaign announcement honeymoon period.  But yeah, so far not really seeing polling evidence that his support for the nomination is dropping.
