This cannot be! They lie! Look at the source!
The One has not convinced many and with good reason. People have higher standards for their own friends than a braggart who tries to demoralize and destroy any who does not kiss butt.

Let us parse this a little. The Donald is the one with most “unpopularity” among REPUBLICAN voters. But those in favor, are among the most enthusiastic of their support, which, in the end, may sway enough of the so-called “uncommitted” voters in this largely amorphous “center”, to overcome, by some decidedly much larger margin, whatever deficit he may have with the Republicans who “disapprove” of him right now.

The Donald is attracting votes from what at one time were called the “Reagan Democrats”, who feel they have no representation of their views by any of the candidates so far offered up by the Democrats.

An altogether unexpected and previously ignored majority may even now be shaping up.

Nixon got elected in 1968 against a badly wounded LBJ, who, though not running himself, had enough of his patina rub off on Hubert Humphrey, that Humphrey was too seriously tarnished to stand up to Nixon.

The Donald will be running against a badly damaged member of the Current Regime, whose career was blemished by the crony capitalism that was rampant in the years from 2007 through 2016.
