Has Donald Trump peaked? While The Donald is still the frontrunner of the GOP presidential race in a new Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday, his lead has shrunk and his momentum appears to have stalled. The support he registered this month (25 percent) is statistically unchanged from his lead in last month's survey (28 percent).

As Trump's momentum stalls, his competition is picking up speed. Ben Carson snagged second in the Quinnipiac poll with 17 percent, jumping five points from last month, and Carly Fiorina came in third at 12 percent, a seven-point leap. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio also saw slight bumps in their support.
