Trump’s Poll Ratings Are Historically Bad

[DonViejo]

Politico: “Trump is setting modern records for political toxicity — at least for a major-party candidate this far out from an election. Seventy percent of Americans surveyed in an ABC News/Washington Post poll out this week had an unfavorable opinion of Trump, up 10 points over the past month. The poll showed Trump’s favorable rating cratering at 29 percent, down from 37 percent last month.”

“The numbers were similar in a Bloomberg Politics poll: Trump’s favorable rating is just 31 percent, with 66 percent viewing him unfavorably. That’s only marginally better than in March, when 29 percent viewed Trump favorably, and 68 percent had an unfavorable opinion.”

“But it’s not just the overall unfavorable numbers — it’s the intensity of the antipathy toward Trump, and the lack of enthusiasm for him.”

The Hill: “GOP insiders fear that Trump, whose yearlong run for the presidency has been fueled by sheer force of personality, has not grasped the depth of the challenges he now faces.”

“I think the tailspin could be really bad — historic proportions bad. I think it’ll be a historically bad loss. I’ve said that from the very beginning.”

— Former White House press secretary Tony Fratto, quoted by The Hill, on the impact of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign on the Republican party.

1. I bet the judge he critisiced is laughing his ass off!

At least I hope so. Not that I would EVER represent Trump, but I would really hate to be his attorneys on that case!

[COLGATE4]

4. I would really hate to be The Donald's attorney

in any case!

[PoliticAverse]

2. "My ratings are historically youuuuuuuge!". n/t

[gratuitous]

3. That's precisely the reaction I expect from Trump

"I'm makin' history!" And his ever-dwindling herd of followers laps up this bullshit like it was filet mignon.

5. Poor Donald Trump

His utter lack of self-awareness will set him up for the biggest loss of his life. His campaign, if he stays in the race, will crater spectacularly and I hope we get a wonderful show to watch.

Anyway, all that really matters is that Democrats win all their races!

9. Lack of self-awareness is a RW staple...

they all seem to have it in spades. He just showcases a lot of how they look at things, if not how they actually feel. I think those that secretly agree with his positions re POC but declined to display them publicly are starting to get cold feet. Perhaps they are starting to realize that most people don't think like they do. In fact, most people have been acting "politically correct" toward RW assholiness by not pointing it out as strongly as they should. It's the old, "Well he's a racist but it's impolite to confront him on it" line.

10. Then we can thank Mr. Trump...

... for pulling back the curtain to reveal the crap you and I always known was in the hearts and minds of Republicans. He's brought it into the open for all to see.

Let's hope it helps all of our Democratic candidates!

6. New product for him

7. His negative rating with Hispanics is over 80%. I remember reading their

autopsy on 2012 and one of the observations they made was that without Hispanic votes in the high 20s,they couldn't win a national election.

8. Just Yesterday He said: "We're Going to Win the Hispanic Vote-we're Going to Win the Latino Vote"

amazing

11. He's oblivious, isn't he?

Donald Trump is so ensconced in his egocentrism that reality doesn't enter his consciousness. This barrier will make his defeat so unexpected to him that his head will roll off his shoulders and explode, hopefully on live TV. Just imagine his concession speech on election night!

[milestogo]

12. He will be in a rage

and his speech will be so uncivil that they won't broadcast it. Maybe he won't even concede.

[lancer78]

13. He will NOT be the nominee

If TPTB can do anything about it.
