If Donald Trump secures the Republican presidential nomination, he would start the general election campaign as the least-popular candidate to represent either party in modern times.
Three-quarters of women view him unfavorably. So do nearly two-thirds of independents, 80 percent of young adults, 85 percent of Hispanics and nearly half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
Those findings, tallied from Washington Post-ABC News polling, fuel Trumps overall 67 percent unfavorable rating making Trump more disliked than any major-party nominee in the 32 years the survey has been tracking candidates.

Look at #120
63% is equal to the non-Trump vote in the primary so far. Unfortunately non-Cruz is 73%.
Also note that 63% is better than Reagan's from December 1979 all the way to Aug-Sep 1980.
I'm so scared!

All they need to know is that Trump will beat Hillary. That's what all the multi-millionaires in the establishment/MSM/DNC/GOP/K-street club are so worried about. They all have a great thing going with the status quo and an outsider like Trump might upset that apple cart.
Never before have the residents of the extremely wealthy zip codes surrounding D.C. been so worried.

The difference between Putin and Obama is that:
- Putin works to strengthen Russia
whereas:
- Obama works to strengthen Russia every country but the one he is pResident of.
Fixed it

You are conflating both numbers and terms (hint: 96.73% of the general population does not dislike Dr. Ben Carson).

I wouldn’t know, but I do know that when Barry Manilow had that hit in ‘74, Teddy boy wasn’t but 4 years old.

I wouldnt know, but I do know that when Barry Manilow had that hit in 74, Teddy boy wasnt but 4 years old. Some songs never age... After reading Mandy's tweets this old hit came to my mind... I could hear it playing when the cheese cake was served.

I'm demonstrating what you are doing. Doh!
To: Helicondelta
Alright, you guys keep saying that but can you offer any evidence? Other than unsupported assertions, appeals to a GOPe conspiracy, your hopes and dreams, or another poll showing Trump kicking the tar out of Cruz among hardcore Republican primary voters that somehow is 100% applicable to the general election even though none of the actual general election polls are?

I'm demonstrating what you are doing. I posted information from Gallup on Trump's popularity.

Well, we all know the Republicans have imposture - they have no spine and can’t stand up to anyone, except conservatives.

Voters are starting to realize what an empty suit Rump is, and how he will lie and do anything to win, a sleazy typical politician of the worst kind.You look like another just activated sleeper troll.
Quite a revealing break between posts. No doubt you are here to guide voters into thinking whatever blackhearted propaganda your elite puppet masters tell you to spew.
