Another poll came out overnight from ABC/Washington Post, and just like the other three polls, it’s really really bad news for Trump:
ABC/WaPo poll
Clinton 50%
Trump 42%Pre-conventions:
Clinton 47%
Trump 43%https://t.co/0ra2lrdwrB— Steve Kornacki (@SteveKornacki) August 7, 2016
From ABC News:
Hillary Clinton has advanced among women and consolidated support within her party since her nominating convention, while a difficult few weeks have left Donald Trump still struggling on basic ratings from his temperament to his qualifications for office. She leads him by 8 points in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll.
Trump’s ratings in general haven’t worsened –- they just haven’t improved since he claimed the Republican nomination. And the trouble list is long: Seventy-nine percent of Americans say he doesn’t show enough respect for people he disagrees with, 70 percent express anxiety about a Trump presidency, 67 percent think he lacks the personality and temperament it takes to serve effectively, 64 percent doubt his understanding of world affairs, 63 percent see him unfavorably overall, 62 percent say he’s not honest and trustworthy, 61 percent think he’s unqualified for office and 60 percent think he’s biased against women and minorities.
It looks like the American public is “tired of winning” ahead of schedule.
More from the poll that Trump will likely ignore completely:
ABC/WaPo
White women w/ degree: Clinton +19
White men w/ degree: Trump +8
White women no degree: Trump +11
White men no degree: Trump +42— Steve Kornacki (@SteveKornacki) August 7, 2016
Dang. That ain’t no good. For the Trump. It’s awesome for me. DROP OUT, LOSER!!!
Look at contrast in how WaPo/ABC respondents judge HRC & Trump. Her "honesty" #s terrible—& even there he trails. pic.twitter.com/tYK8tFhoJ0

This –> HRC leads by 6 pts w/ college-educate white voters (exit polls say D's never have won them back to 1976) https://t.co/saBSLvxVrH

Forty years. FORTY YEARS.
Now you MIGHT think that after FOUR polls showing disastrous results for Trump, some of his cultish followers might rethink their messianic predictions of a landslide for the Donald. But you would be wrong:
Keep it up #WAPO. We don't trust you or your polls. See u all in Nov8th. #RevolutionDay in American politics. https://t.co/DqHHMKXSbc

Don't believe Main Stream Media polls. They are all working together to help Hillary and the Democrats. #MAGA pic.twitter.com/efABwn5xz1

@ThisWeekABC @ABC Stop falsifying polls to cover up for Hillary's downfall… She's obviously nuts and needs a psychiatric evaluation. #MAGA

@Read_N_Learn @billpostmus @ABC It's too bad the polls stop being real after the primaries. We won't know anything till Nov. 8th. #MAGA

I never believed the polls that show Trump trailing by 9 points. Liberal pollsters get the results they want. #MAGA https://t.co/gJGU0viL1S

Riiiight, sure. But if he turns it around, guess who’ll be waving poll numbers in front of anyone who can listen?
