People, including close to half of Republican voters, have an unfavorable view of Donald Trump, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll. “It’s an opinion shared by majorities of men and women; young and old; conservatives, moderates and liberals; and whites, Hispanics and blacks — a devastatingly broad indictment of the billionaire businessman.”
29% to 68%
Donald Trump’s favorability rating, according to a new Bloomberg poll. Said pollster Ann Selzer: “Trump’s numbers are bad and getting worse…A majority of Americans now describe their feelings toward him as very unfavorable. That’s a 13-point spike from November 2015.” In contrast, Hillary Clinton has a 44% to 53% favorability rating.
67%
“Trump’s unfavorable rating stood at 67% — two-thirds of all Americans — in a March Washington Post-ABC poll, including 56 percent who had a ‘strongly’ unfavorable impression of him. Just 3 in 10 had a favorable impression of Trump (15% ‘strongly’). American politicians tend to be more unpopular than usual these days, but it’s hard to overstate how bad Trump’s numbers are with all Americans. In fact, Trump’s highly negative ratings appear to have no equal among major party nominees in presidential campaigns over the past 32 years.”
30%
Of Americans “express a favorable opinion of Trump, while 67% see him unfavorably … Many, 56%, see him ‘strongly’ unfavorably, a new high. Both of these reflect remarkable levels of unpopularity for a major domestic political figure,” according to a Washington Post/ABC News poll. “Clinton, by contrast, is seen unfavorably by 52% and strongly so by 41%, each 15 points less than Trump’s ratings in this poll.”
60%
Donald Trump’s unfavorable rating, making him — if nominated — the most unpopular candidate to be nominated from either of the two major parties going back to the 1992 election, Gallup finds.
5%
Percent of Americans who cite his confidence — that he doesn’t back down — when asked to name the best or most positive thing about a possible Donald Trump presidency if he were to be elected in 2016, according to Gallup: “Americans most commonly volunteer his business background, policies on immigration and honesty — that he says what he feels. … More than four in 10 cannot name anything positive about a potential Trump presidency.”
65%
Of American adults have a favorable opinion of musician and actor David Bowie who passed away Sunday night after an 18-month battle with cancer, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. This includes 25% with a very favorable view. Just 15% have a somewhat or very unfavorable view of Bowie. Twenty-one percent didn’t know enough about him to venture any kind of opinion.
minus 70
Donald Trump’s net favorable rating of -70 among Democrats, according to a new Gallup survey — “by far the worst image of any major Republican candidate among Democrats and independents.” The next GOP candidates rated most negatively among Democrats are Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee, with net favorable ratings of -37 and -34, respectively.
71%
Of American voters are “dissatisfied” with the way things are going in the nation today, including 41% who are “very dissatisfied,” according to a new Quinnipiac poll.“Voters disapprove 81% to 12% of the way Republicans in Congress are doing their job and give the Republican Party a negative 31% to 58% favorability. Disapproval of Democrats in Congress is 66% to 27% and the Democratic Party gets a negative 40% to 50% favorability.”
57%
Republicans now have a favorable view of Trump, compared to 40% who have an unfavorable one, a new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds. “That marks a complete reversal from a late-May Post-ABC poll, in which 65% of Republicans saw Trump unfavorably. Donald Trump’s popularity has surged among Republicans after dominating several news cycles with his anti-illegal immigration rhetoric.”
