The Trump And Sanders Phenomenon In Gallup's Finding.

++The collapse of the Republican Party has become dramatic with the 2016 debates. But overall in our society,there is now a record number of self-described independents. 43% of Americans are independent, 30% Democrats and 26% are Republicans.

++To give you some perspective,in 1994 when I was the President of the International Republican Institute,Republicans finally reached the 51% mark. 

++In the Obama era,independents in by election were "leaning Republicans" who were too embarrassed by the party. Now with the erosion among Democrats,you can add the equivalent.

++It means the parties are under attack either because of the GOP's nihilism or the Democrats looking ineffectual.
