The controversial tycoon is leading the pack in the race for the GOP nomination, according to a survey published on Monday by ABC and The Washington Post, indicating that he has 24% of the preferences.

That comes in moments that he has been able to alienate even the most conservative sectors of the GOP, not to mention minorities and democrat-leaning voters.

On the second place of the race is the governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, with 13%, while the former governor of Florida, Jeb Bush, is third with 12%.
