NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is wildly unpopular among young adults, in particular young people of color, and nearly two-thirds of Americans between the ages of 18 and 30 believe the presumptive Republican nominee is racist.
That's the finding of a new GenForward poll that also found just 19 percent of young people have a favorable opinion of Trump compared to the three-quarters of young adults who hold a dim view of the New York billionaire.
Trump's likely general election opponent, Hillary Clinton, is also unpopular with young people, but not nearly to the same extent as the real estate mogul and realty TV star. A mere 6 percent of young African Americans, 10 percent of young Hispanics, 12 percent of young Asian Americans and 27 percent of young whites see Trump in a favorable light, ratings that suggest the celebrity businessman faces a staggering task this summer to win their backing in his bid for the White House.
"I think if you want to be a moral young person, you can't support Trump," said Miguel Garcia, 20, of Norwalk, California.
The grandson of Mexican immigrants and a college student who also works at a tire shop, Garcia is a registered Democrat who has not chosen a candidate to support this fall — but is resolute in his disdain for Trump.
"It's really hard to back anything Trump does," Garcia said. "He just says prejudiced stuff."

Most people under the age of 25 are mentally deficient
I almost spit my coffee out when I saw this retard article. How desperate AP is.
Well, that’s it. I can’t vote for him now.
Of course they do. They’ve been programmed to say this in our “schools” and “colleges”. They get “extra credit” for it.
Illegally entering the country and obtaining welfare benefits fraudulently are perfectly fine, however.
Most young people dislike Hillary Clinton, say she’s a lying, old, fat, lesbian drunk.
GinForward...never heard of this crap box.
If this groundless crap is all the AP can come up with, they know how much trouble their “commie candidate” is in. And the serious campaigning has not even started yet. Keep at it AP...doing a good job of increasing support for Trump.
Just happens to come out the day Quinn poll has him surging in swing states.
What a ko-inky-dink.
AP: Lifting Hitlery as much as possible.
I would take this with a bit of salt and pepper.
I had seen online at a number of Trump rallies a lot of young people.
These youngsters need to know how Hillary geeks about “f***ing Jew bastards,” “damn niggers,” Indians who work at 7/11, etc. etc.
Hillary is disliked more.
Are these the ones who voted for the old betrayer to their social dreams Bernie the Phony? Suckers!
AP editorializes with anecdotal propaganda - pay no attention.
I know plenty of 20 somethings who like Trump - this is also anecdotal, however the very fact that they are out there counterbalances this spin.
Fear of white people an irrational pathology. If it is not fear it is hatred and they need therapy.
AP Bull Crap. Trump speaks the truth and some people just don’t get it.
Trump for President.
Really??? The Associated Press...an established media whore of the Obama/Clinton Media lies again!!! You AP folks are gonna have a massive negative surprise, come November 8, 2016, when DJT takes down Hillary Clinton & the entire Democrat vermin party...politically!!! Keep staying adrift at sea....AP low life!!!
As long as they stay home or write in Bernie.....it doesn’t matter
