Donald Trump is once again at the top of the polls, this time with his biggest lead yet, according to a CNN report released this morning.

To put some perspective on his standing, I called upon NYT bestselling author Roger Stone to give us insight.

Stone, a former adviser to Trump and a longtime political analyst, said there is a "Trumpnado" sweeping the nation because people are fed-up with politicians.

"Donald Trump got on the scene and he’s a truth-teller," he said. According to him, people think the blunt, sometimes euphemistic candidate has what it takes to execute an all-out-effort to crush ISIS.
But how does he reconcile that label when he's made claims about seeing thousands of New Jersey Muslims celebrating on 9/11, which has yet to be backed up by any news footage or police report from that day?
"The bottom line is there either is or there is not a stream of radical Muslims already in the country, already embedded in the fabric of our society that was exultant over the attacks on American on 9/11," Stone said. "The answer is, there is. Whether it's dozens or hundreds or thousands is almost at this point immaterial."
