The presumptive Republican presidential candidate for the elections of November, Donald Trump, today registers a fall in most polls during June. A few months away from the elections,Trump's situation is worse than the one from previous Republican candidates like George W. Bush in 2004, John McCain in 2008 and Mitt Romney in 2012.
Despite having a slight increase after primaries as the party nominee, the businessman-turned-politician began his decline in the polls and now has the worst performance of a Republican in a general election since 1996.
According to The Washington Post there are many reasons to think that those numbers will get worse in the coming days and weeks.
Different media estimate this situation is influenced by the fact that most voters have an unfavorable opinion of him when only 31 percent see him favorably against the 66 percent who have a contrary perception.
Although Clinton is also unpopular among voters her negative aspects are neither as large nor as deep as those of her rival, said recently the digital newspaper The Hill.
In this regard, 70 percent of Americans polled by ABC News / Washington Post a week ago had an unfavorable opinion of Trump, more than 10 points compared to last month.
The latest Gallup research showed Trump with 31 percent support against 63 percent unfavorable, significantly worse than Clinton with 41 percent favorable, 54 percent unfavorable.
The negative perception about Trump, in the more closed frame of the states, is also against him and, for example, in Wisconsin, 64 percent see it unfavorably compared to only the 26 percent who accepts him.
While assessing this situation the Quinnipiac University surveyor, Peter Brown, said it is obviously more difficult to change the opinion of the voter who has a contrary perception that the one of the people who are indecisive. "The stronger the aversion is, it will be more difficult to change that person's opinion".
While this seems likely to influence the polls in November, Brown considered possible that the United States elects a president viewed unfavorably by half the voters. "Today, the answer to that question seems to be yes," he highlighted.
