Donald Trump said Tuesday that he and fellow GOP presidential contender Ben Carson have hit a chord with voters, but it’s still way too early to say if there will be a Trump/Carson ticket in next year’s general election.

“We have a very good relationship, and we’re not as different as people think,” Trump told CNN’s “New Day” program.

“There’s certainly a different style. You know, I have great assets and he has great assets. But we are both resonating, there’s no question about it.” A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll on Monday listed Trump at 25 percent, with Carson closely behind at 22 percent, and a CNN/ORC Poll  released today put Trump at 27 percent, followed by 22 percent for Carson.

“I went up a lot from my original, I’ve gone up a lot,” Trump said. “And you know, the other candidates are similar. Maybe these polls are starting to accurate out.”

Meanwhile, Trump said he likes Carson and Carson likes him, and “stranger things have happened” than the two of them joining up for a presidential campaign.

“It certainly is interesting, he said. “So many people have suggested it because we seem to be doing awfully well.”

The CNN poll also showed that Carly Fiorina’s numbers, which spiked following her star turn in the last GOP debate, have plummeted quickly since that time, and Trump said he does not know why her numbers dropped so much, from 15 percent to 4 percent in just one month.
