REBECCA KAPLAN December 22, 2015. Poll: Donald Trump Trails Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders In MatchUp

If the presidential election were held today, Republican candidate Donald Trump would lose to either of the two leading Democratic candidates, a new Quinnipiac poll found.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, would actually be more successful than Democratic front runner Hillary Clinton, leading Trump 51 percent to 38 percent. Clinton's lead is smaller: She would beat Trump 47 percent to 40 percent.

Trump still leads the 2016 GOP field with 28 percent support among Republicans nationwide, although Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is hot on his heels with 24 percent - within the plus or minus 4.4 percent margin of error among Republican respondents. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio comes in third, with 12 percent support, and former neurosurgeon Ben Carson nets 10 percent. No other Republican candidate gets more than 6 percent support, and 8 percent of respondents said they were undecided.

Then CBS should be happy, right? I suspect if it comes down to hitlery and Trump, we will see history in the making.

This is ridiculous on its face.

No way Trump does not beat either of them like rented mules in a real match-up.

The whole nation is crying out for either a bag lady or a over-the-hill commie.

Do I believe polling sample(Quinnipiac) where only 4% of GOP respondents value gun ownership rights higher than climate change concerns….

Baloney. In one on one against any of those it’s easy to see that Trump would wipe the floor with them. This is just cBS attempt to damage Trump.

Cool.

If Americans don’t want to be free, then Americans aren’t going to be free.

It’s just that simple.

Donald will lose because he doesn’t unite the base with his crude and childish reality show antics. Keep schlonging on Trumpeters.

This election will be a different animal in regards to polls because there will be a vote of the people. As opposed to polls which are always subject to manipulation. With Hillary or Sanders, Trump win big.

Ya heard it here first.
