Donald Trump is bound to be tweeting up a storm about the results of the latest NBC News/SurveyMonkey national poll out Tuesday. In what marks a huge moment for the Republican presidential frontrunner, he has, for the first time ever in this poll's tenure, broken 50 percent support nationally. The new survey finds that Trump's support has jumped four points from last Tuesday's poll to reach exactly 50 percent support among registered Republicans.
Trump's main rival Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), on the other hand, is seeing his support decline. Cruz's support has decreased slightly every week for the last three weeks and now sits at 26 percent. Ohio Gov. John Kasich's support is at 17 percent, down 2 points.
