Trump would be least-popular major-party nominee in modern times
WaPo ^ | 03-31-2016 | Philip Rucker and Robert Costa

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 Trump’s overall 67 percent unfavorable rating — making Trump more disliked than any major-party nominee in the 32 years the survey has been tracking candidates.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Voting for yet another ivy league lawyer who became an elected official who has not even finished his first term is insanity,

Remind you of anyone, oh yea that would be cruz.
Said he would be a senator for TX , comes from Canada, , become American less than two years ago, and now runs for the top office backed by the establishment, you know that GOP which all of us were against a few months ago.

I like your tagline. Here’s an article demonstrating Cruz’s provable, beyond any reasonable doubt, lies over his immigration position. A Cruzer has no business criticizing Trump supporters, claiming that they “ignore facts,” when their candidate is provably a liar. I can lead you to the facts but can’t make you think:

This is the most likely scenario...

Hillary will get indicted and forced out. Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren will be the replacement team. Hillary's super high negatives will go bye-bye and yet Rumpy The Blowhards sky high negatives will remain. Our side loses badly.

In the latest one-on-one Reuters poll, Cruz is beating Rump like a rented mule. 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.

CRUZ is the Texas version of Marco Rubio. Two political opportunists that want to sell “conservatism” for their own political gain. FOR GOD’S SAKES, MAN!!!! isn’t this the way we have all been DUPED by all the other Republicans for the past 25 YEARS???? When are people going to wake up????

Since Trump has gotten millions more votes than the others at this point, and won the most states so far. It stands to reason that any of the others would be even more “less popular”. Unless the goal here is to nominate a total pansy who will play all the usual leftist games and “understand their concerns” when BLM burns down a few more cities, illegals demand citizens rights, or female and cisgender libs make demands based on their perceived injustices.

Which IS apparently the goal of the GOP and MSM.

I giggled like a little girl when obama kicked hillary’s arse, I’ll probably do it again when Trump kicks it.

voting for cruz is voting for the establishment and yet two months ago we were all against them , but now some seem to have become stubborn and want to support the establishment by the way fo cruz.
now I hear Kasich in TV saying he wins against Clinton.

I swear when have people had enough of the establishment lies and will vote against them.

WAPO picks and chooses which favorability ratings they want to report on. Whoever believes WAPO’s narrative is an idiot.
