2016 exit polls Trump fav/unfav. WI 35/64. PA 42/56. MI 39/59. This poll is all adults and not even LV. It seems Trump gained a bit of ground since election night.
Exactly. Why is it so hard to understand that people will still vote for someone they dislike if the other person is seen as worse?
If you can name me a potential candidate with likability ratings similar to Hillary, then you have a point. But as of now, even polarizing Elizabeth Warren isnt anywhere near Hillary levels.
Well Clinton's unfavorables increased as a result of the email scandal (which originated from the GOP led Benghazi investigations) and from being perceived as corrupt because of her Goldman Sachs speeches/Clinton Foundation/financial contributors/etc due to a left wing insurgency candidacy from Sanders and his supporters.
I don't think either of those events would've been prophesized in 2013; in fact Clinton's favorability rating back then was perfectly fine.
Exactly which people often forget, In fact when she announced her favorables were still fine. If one thinks this rebranding is exclusive to Hillary and another democrat doesnt have the potential to have their character dragged in the mud, then they have another thing coming to them.
