If Obama's approval is 52% and rising, and his disapproval is 44% (RCP average), how can Trump win?

Trump is the anti-Obama. To Trump, Obama shouldn't even be president, as he was not born in America. To Trump, Obama is the founder of America's enemy. To Trump, Obama is the worst thing to ever happen to America.

Will anyone who approves of Obama vote for Trump? Maybe 1%. With Obama's approval riding high, how can Trump possibly win?
