Wow, the graph in the article says it all! This is the time a candidate should be seeing his popularity rising, Trump's is plummeting badly. Least popular politician in modern times and actually getting worse with each month that passes.

I don't get how the survey broken down categories

for example the REPUBLICAN like him more now than before, within the REPUBLICAN there are also women, college graduate, suburban...the segment somewhat overlaps, right?or in this case REPUBLICANS just means REPUBLICAN who are not women, not college educated, not living in the suburbia etc...?

I don't like Trump, but will likely be voting for him. Disliking Trump doesn't negate voting for him. I despise Hillary but truly fear the far left, fascist hordes of progressives even more.

I think a lot of people are confusing 'liking' someone and viewing them 'favorably'. Viewing a candidate 'favorably' is more along the lines 'what can the candidate do for me', believing that their policies will benefit 'me', agreeing with their assessment of something. Liking... not so much. I think a lot of people liked Rubio and Bush, but did not view them favorably as president. A lot of people really dislike cruz, but a number do view him favorably because they feel he can do something for them as president. What is going on with trump, is that not only have people begun to dislike him, but they have also come to view his potential as president unfavorably.

It's an uphill climb for him from here on in.

It must really be depressing to live under fascism. Of course, you're free to leave at any time.
