Yeah.

This is why people are standing in line for 3 hours to vote for Trump in the primary: because they hate him so much....

I think these “unfavorable” numbers are complete garbage.

It’s a good thing for local cops that 7 out of 10 don’t like Trump. They couldn’t handle the crowds if it was only 6 out of 10.

Sadly, many, many voters will turn because they want to be like everyone else.

35-40% of “republicans”. Tops. Many of his supporters see him like teenage girls see Justin Beiber, they idolize him. My husband and I had been fighting over trump for a long time. He lost Trump when he said everybody should have nukes. My husband worked for DOD at stratcom in future capabilities. He worked 5 year plan on war plans. He later admitted he liked trumps fight but said Trump's gone too far and is a bully and arrogant. Not presidential. I have a feeling lots of people are concerned about his tactics, and are backing away like my husband.

3% of the eligible voters in the U.S. have cast a vote for Trump. That's about 8 million out of 250 million eligible voters. Don't think that a yuge majority of voters are standing in line.

Has it not occurred to you that perhaps, these are NOT the 70%?

Okay let’s see if we can make this simple for you. If there are 10,000 people at a Trump rally in a town of say 100,000 people it would appear that he was really popular. However, the facts are that means only 10% of the people in town came to his rally. If you assume some of these people are not from that town, but drove in from other areas to see him then even a smaller percentage in the town like him enough to come to his rally. There might also be people who came because they wanted to see this guy they’ve heard about on TV, after all he is a reality TV star and a billionaire, so cut the percentage a little more. So, pretty soon you might be down to say 7-8%, which means over 92% of the locals don’t really like him all that much.

Bottom line “big” rally crowds don’t mean squat. Sarah Palin had crowds as high as 25,000 here in Indiana back in 2008, and McCain lost the state, a first for a republican since 1964.

This line of reasoning is stupid. I intend to vote for Trump, gladly, if he gets the nomination, but these polls are very worrisome. To simply disregard them is infantile and assinine.

I will stand in line to vote for Trump.
Will ask everyone I can, please do not vote for the establishment.
Trump will get my vote-won’t change my mind.
