Fox News Poll: Clinton's negatives surpass Trump's

American voters dislike Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

A record 61 percent have a negative view of the likely Democratic nominee, according to a Fox News poll released Wednesday.  That’s up from 58 percent in March.

Fifty-six percent have an unfavorable view of Trump -- though that’s actually good news for Donald.  Because it was 65 percent two months ago (that was a record high).

Thirty-seven percent have a favorable opinion of Clinton, down two points from 39 percent in March, establishing a new low.  The likely Republican nominee’s favorable jumped over the same time period: 41 percent view Trump positively, up from 31 percent in March.

Clinton and Trump are both unlikeable, corrupt and consummate liars. Two bad choices.
Principles matter. Words matter.

Lost in all this is the fact that the 'right' candidate had greater unfavorables than the 'left' candidate after 8 years of Obama in the first place and it's !great! news that 59% of his potential voters STILL don't like him.

I think the breakdown can be found in the recipe box under "D" for 'Disaster".

Sadly, apparently that's what the neverTrumps are hoping for.

I suppose one way to win is to be perceived as less of a piece of crap than the other guy/girl.
The Republic is lost.

It's not a matter of hope. We see clearly what you willfully blinded yourself to. Since you recently brought up FR I'd point to them as an example of people willingly blinding themselves to facts, history and logical reason.

Now many of us outside the self imposed dome of Trump devotion can and have objectively looked at the raw numbers and rightly concluded that while some misguided people may well install Donald Trump as the GOP nominee, he will most likely repeat his predicessor's performance due to his outright rejection of conservative values, principles and historical positions.

This is why his numbers are literally upside down with higher unfavorables than favorables across all demographics.

His at best, plurality, will most likely result in another defeat for which his true believers will blame on conservatives. However, we told you, and have told you throughout the primaries. We will not vote for a liberal. You should have taken that to heart because we proved it in 12 and we are no less serious this election.

Had you thought this through, you would have correctly concluded that you will not win without us, just as Romeny did not, and abandoned the fools errand of trying to nominate another liberal loser.

But you didn't. You empowered him to trash the one actual conservative running. You rallied not behind a conservative, when you claim to want conservatism, but behind a liberal when you claim to oppose liberalism. Your hubris is America's problem. You qwn it. You own Trump and you own every bit of damage he causes whether or not he ends up elected.

Thats your legacy. Thats how history will record it. And your descendants will always live with the burdens of your stubborn choices.

The race is on, to the bottom.

Yeah! Break out the champagne. Trump is hated by 56% of registered voters in a pro Trump FOX poll with some swell sampling.....

The Fox News poll is based on landline and cellphone interviews with 1,021 randomly chosen registered voters nationwide and was conducted under the joint direction of Anderson Robbins Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R) from May 14-17, 2016.  The poll has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points for all registered voters.

(Whatever you do, don't look at any other real polls on this topic. It will spoil your delusion.)

You're only different in that you're neverTrump.



Now many of us outside the self imposed dome of Trump devotion can and have objectively looked at the raw numbers and rightly concluded that while some misguided people may well install Donald Trump as the GOP nominee, he will most likely repeat his predicessor's performance due to his outright rejection of conservative values, principles and historical positions.


Rightly concluded? No, concluded based on your biases. 

This is why his numbers are literally upside down with higher unfavorables than favorables across all demographics.

Numbers that keep improving. Numbers that will continue to improve as Clinton's continue to decline.

His at best, plurality, will most likely result in another defeat for which his true believers will blame on conservatives. However, we told you, and have told you throughout the primaries. We will not vote for a liberal. You should have taken that to heart because we proved it in 12 and we are no less serious this election.

You're hoping for Trump's defeat. You're going to be even angrier when he wins a landslide victory. Then you and yours can whine for the next 4 years. I'll gladly supply diapers and tissues.

Had you thought this through, you would have correctly concluded that you will not win without us, just as Romeny did not, and abandoned the fools errand of trying to nominate another liberal loser.

You choose to do what you want. The Trump train is leaving the station. You can either get on or be left behind.

But you didn't. You empowered him to trash the one actual conservative running. You rallied not behind a conservative, when you claim to want conservatism, but behind a liberal when you claim to oppose liberalism. Your hubris is America's problem. You qwn it. You own Trump and you own every bit of damage he causes whether or not he ends up elected.

No, I didn't empower anybody. The milquetoast congress did that.  I want someone who can get things done. Not an exclusive ideologue. The people have spoken. They want limitations and eliminations of government agencies and departments. They want border security and jobs for US citizens. They want a strong military and improved veteran's care. They want the 2nd Amendment protected and Constitution supporting SCOTUS justices. That you neverTrumps don't like it, says more about your lack of respect for the process than it does about those who voted for Trump.

Thats your legacy. Thats how history will record it. And your descendants will always live with the burdens of your stubborn choices.

Trump will be a good POTUS. It's his legacy to make. Your anger and hatred are misplaced.
