Trump's Favorability Rating Hits New Low at -41%

A CNN poll finds that 70% of Americans now view Donald Trump unfavorably and only 29% have a positive view of him. His numbers among Hispanics are far worse with 89% disapproving of him.

Clinton's numbers a bit in red but nothing like what we see with Trump. Her favorability rating is -12. With 55% disapproving and 43% approving.

So both candidates need to do a little bit of work. Clinton likely has to win over some more Sanders supporters and push for some positive PR. And Trump just has to build a machine that will allow him to travel to an alternative universe where no one has ever heard of Donald Trump.

America was great?

by that I mean 73-74, when Nixon kept us entertained with the dissolution of his persona as he fought to keep his presidency?

He's been in Berkeley too long. He used to be a very pragmatic thinker and activist.
