I see Trump support as working for Hillary because he’s more or less the only possible way to lose against her.

Hmmm, I guess that explains why the Democrats, Republican Leadership, and the ENTIRE MAINSTREAM MEDIA(Democrat Propaganda Wing) wants to STOP TRUMP??

Funny thing about pols, people LIE, Reagan was way behind Carter in EVERY POLL and won a 47 State Landslide.

The anti-Trumpsters like to bring up ‘negatives’ and that Trump had 60-some % negatives, yada yada yada. Negatives are meaningless, especially when candidates are winning races and primary polling.

They also try the reversed psychology: Yeah Trump won such and such state, but he only got 45% of the vote. That means 55% oppose him

They fail to mention that the other candidates had lower vote totals, thus larger numbers who oppose them. For example, one never hears that another candidate only got 12% of the vote, that means 82% voted against him.

I agree with you about the polls in general, but trotting out the old canard of the 1980 election is rather pointless, unless you can point out any other cases where something similar happened? Because I think that election was a special case....
