Sink, Squirrel-Hair, sink!An AP-GfK poll released today finds Donald Trump with an astonishing 69% disapproval rating. Only 26% view Trump favorably:For Americans of nearly every race, gender, political persuasion and location, disdain for Donald Trump runs deep, saddling the Republican front-runner with unprecedented unpopularity as he tries to overcome recent campaign setbacks.Seven in 10 people, including close to half of Republican voters, have an unfavorable view of 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.Even in the South, a region where Trump has won GOP primaries decisively, close to 70 percent view him unfavorably. And among whites without a college education, one of Trump’s most loyal voting blocs, 55 percent have a negative opinion.It is hard to understand how such a deeply unpopular politician could be a serious contender for the presidency. Of course, the other candidates aren’t much liked by voters, either. Hillary Clinton has a 55% disapproval rating, and Ted Cruz is viewed negatively by 59%. Still, those numbers are eclipsed by Trump’s 69%, a figure that is still falling.
