Poll: Most Americans think Donald Trump is a raging jerk

Poll: Most Americans think Donald Trump is a raging jerk
By Greg Sargent October 19 at 3:49 PM

The new Quinnipiac poll finds Hillary Clinton leading Donald Trump among likely voters nationally by 47-40 in the four-way race, and by 50-44 in the head-to-head match-up. But never mind that. We already know that Clinton is ahead nationally by anywhere from six points to eight points.

Here’s a much more important finding. The good folks at Quinnipiac hit on the brilliant idea of asking respondents whether they think Clinton and Trump have a basic sense of decency. You’ll be shocked by what they found:

A large majority of Americans — 59 percent — say Trump has no sense of decency. And even larger percentages of the groups he needs to improve among also think Trump is a big jerk: 66 percent of women, including 64 percent of white women; 61 percent of college educated whites; 76 percent of young voters; and 66 percent of nonwhites.

They disapprove of Trump more than any other age group. They are a hell of a lot smarter than 40 and 50 somethings.

Will allow unfettered attacks on Hillary with any and all lies by trump...the only ploy trump has left is to try to get Hillary breakdown on TV.....and he will go as low as possible to do so....and Wallace will be assisting him....I'm afraid they will both be disappointed.
