Yes, a rock star with the worst favorability in modern political history.

Outside of his home state, Trump doesn't even draw a majority of Republican support and has the worst favorability ratings among Republican candidates. Feel free to bet on that in the general election, when Republicans become less than half of the voting population.

I certainly agree that Clinton is no Obama. In fact, in a normal cycle, Clinton would probably be doomed in the general election. Fortunately for her and the Democrats, the Republicans seem set to nominate one of the worst candidates ever seen...and that's true whether it's Trump or Cruz.

Their other option is to rules-lawyer the nomination away from either and hand it to a "white knight," and blow up their party properly.

Reagan had only a 30% favorable in 1980

No, he was polling at 30% against Carter early on. That's different than favorable/unfavorable ratings.

Not at all. But the "favorables" argument has already been proven false. Just putting it out there.

When Reagan had a 30% favorable rating in that poll, what were his unfavorables?

You can reverse that and say the same for Trump. Virtually all the democrats and more than half the republicans don't want to vote for Trump.



We'll soon see.

"The favorables argument has been proven false" is just word salad that doesn't mean anything. Reagan came back from a deficit--that's great for him but hardly means it's a good thing or something that's likely to be overcome. Saying, "The Bills came back from a 35-3 deficit in the 1993 playoffs, therefore my team being down by 32 points is no problem" is pretty silly.

So "Hitler had all of EUROPE heading for death camps but Quarterback USA blitzed him for the just-in-time win" was a bad thing? :dunno:

"Quarterback USA blitzed him" is probably the weirdest sports analogy I've ever read. In German football, do quarterbacks blitz?
 
Of all the candidates to accuse of leading a cult, Hillary seems like the least likely.

She's not the one holding huge rallies. She's not the one calling for a revolution, or railing against 'the system'.

Her supporters seem to favor her more out of pragmatism than passion.

But if saying "eh, she's not as bad as you think" is evidence of being a cult member, then I guess I'm a cult member.

That response would work if the one with such a low favorable was also behind in the party nom. Also, keep in mind that Hillary is only like 10 points ahead in favorables. Should be an easy general for Trump because Trump will hit the liberals back 10 x as hard as they do. Something republicans just don't do

Yeah, let's see how that goes.

I'm trademarking this term: Magsplosion.

I just have a feeling it will come in handy.

As opposed to just barf? I don't think that term can be trademarked.
 
I have a hard time understanding the hate against Trump, successful business man who has played the system to made a lot of money, it is what he is supposed to do being a business man. He is willing to try and help this country when he could take his own money and live a very comfortable life. Take that against Hillary who has lived of the public trough and has received lots of money either through the Foundation or directly to her or Bill for years. If it was not for all of her baggage one could look at her and try and decide where she really stands but she changes her opinion to what ever suits her at the time.
For myself watching the GOP backroom deals makes me want some one like Trump all the more. Maybe he can start us down a better road, I have no faith in Hillary. The establishment on both sides is corrupt and way to much money going into superpacs.

The GW poll found that of the five candidates still in the race for the highest office, only two—Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Ohio governor John Kasich—have an unfavorable rating below 50 percent, at 44 and 29, respectively. The other three—former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (56 percent), Texas Senator Ted Cruz (55 percent) and businessman Donald Trump (65 percent)—are all mostly disliked.

All the candidates with unfavorable ratings above 50 percent also have a majority of voters saying that they would not consider voting for them for president.

...

In a head-to-head matchup of each party’s frontrunner, Mrs. Clinton leads Mr. Trump by only 3 percentage points nationally (46 to 43; 11 percent undecided). Comparatively, Mr. Sanders fares slightly better against Mr. Trump (51/40/10).

“The Republican Party has a strongly favorable political environment for winning the White House,” said pollster Ed Goeas, president and CEO of The Tarrance Group. “If a mainstream Republican candidate were the presumptive nominee, the GOP would likely be in a strong position for a lot of wins, top to bottom, in November. “

11 (51 - 40) points is only slightly more than 3?
