Donald Trump Wins Title Of Most Disliked Republican Candidate

Polling results suggest Trump is very limited in the amount of support he can get from potential Republican primary voters. In an ABC/Washington Post national poll released at the beginning of June, Trump had amazingly low favorability numbers -- by far the lowest of any candidate. Only 16 percent of all respondents (not restricted to Republicans or likely Republican primary voters) said they viewed Trump favorably, and an overwhelming 71 percent said they viewed him unfavorably.



A Quinnipiac national poll conducted around the same time shows similar results: 69 percent view Trump unfavorably, and only 20 percent view him favorably. Monmouth University released a national poll Monday that also shows only 20 percent view Trump favorably.

The good news is that his favorability increases among Republicans. The bad news is that the numbers are still low.

Among just self-identified Republicans in the Quinnipiac poll, Trump is the lowest-rated GOP candidate, with 52 percent rating him unfavorably, 34 percent rating him favorably, and 13 percent saying they don't know enough to rate him. As political analyst Harry Enten noted, Trump is a serious outlier in this respect -- his favorables are the worst of any presidential candidate since 1980.

In a Fox News poll from early June, 59 percent of likely Republican voters nationally said they would “never vote for” Trump. Only 22 percent said they would definitely or might vote for him.

As of his announcement on Tuesday, the HuffPost Pollster polling averages showed Trump with a paltry 2 percent support nationally. Trump would be very close to making the cut for the Fox News debate, which requires that a candidate rank in the top 10 based on an average of the last five national polls approved by the network. CNN has more specific participation criteria for its September debate, and announced it will use only polls from certain pollsters. In those polls, Trump remains at 2 percent and needs to gain around 0.4 percent support to move into 10th place and get into the top-tier CNN debate.

In the early state contests, Trump’s numbers look better: He’s averaging 5 percent support in Iowa, putting him in eighth place among the Republican contenders. He’s pulling nearly 10 percent in New Hampshire, good enough for fourth place.

Overall, though, if a majority of your own party’s likely primary voters say they don’t like you and will never vote for you, it’s a bad sign. Trump may be in the debates, but don’t expect him to win.

Trump isn't going to run 3rd Party...

I saw him in an interview saying that The Apprentice has been renewed; after he gets tired of this ego trip he's going to go back to that gig.

[RayThom]

Trump for president.

I am now on my knees daily praying to Saint Jude. I hope he answers my prayers.

[Crackpot]

Trump couldn't hope to get Perots numbers hell he couldn't even get Nader numbers

Donald Trump piñata a hit at business in Reynosa

After Donald Trump's Mexico-bashing comments this week,
Mexicans are engaging in a little Trump-bashing of their own.

[RayThom]

Trump knows with all their siestas and listening to mariachi bands they'll never find the time for bashing him.

Ay, yai, yai, yai.

[Long Run]

Favorable:Unfavorable. That is a no-Trump bridge to cross, and you don't even need Omar to tell you that.

[dgs49]

Again, the question is, whom does he see as his constituency?

Women? Minorities? White guys?

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that he is an empty-headed blowhard whose failures have been as colossal as his successes. And even his successes are based on bullshit and the peculiarities of NY real estate.

Could this simply be a grand delusion fostered by the fact that he is constantly surrounded by toadies and yes-men? That's what it looks like.

#2 to New Hampshire Republicans.


Poll: Trump jumps to second among N.H. Republicans

Real estate magnate and reality TV star Donald Trump has jumped to second place among New Hampshire Republicans, trailing only former Florida governor Jeb Bush in a new Suffolk University Poll.

Bush was supported by 14%, Trump by 11% in the survey of 500 likely GOP primary voters taken Thursday through Monday. They were followed by a dozen other contenders, almost all of them with more electoral and governmental experience than Trump, scoring single digits.

Still, the limits of Trump's appeal were apparent. Asked which candidates should be included on the debate stage — a cast that Fox News says will be limited to those at the top 10 of national polls — Trump finished 11th.

"It's the politics of plurality," says David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center. "Those who like him are voting for him, and although many more dislike him, the unfavorables are split up among many other candidates so it's not hurting him."

Poll: In New Hampshire, Bernie Sanders surges

While almost no analyst sees Trump as a potential nominee, his support in the state that holds the first primary underscores his ability to be a player and affect the conversation in the Republican Party in 2016.

Both Bush and Trump officially announced their candidacies last week.

Trump has focused much of his fire on Bush, criticizing him for his support of Common Core education standards and of a path to legal status for undocumented workers. That stance is likely to be problematic for the former Florida governor. In the poll, more than eight in 10 disagreed with the view that illegal immigration is "an act of love," words Bush has used. More than six in 10 disagreed strongly.
