As I noted earlier this week, June polls have shown Donald Trump dropping from the levels of early May, when he was at parity with Hillary Clinton, but they have not shown Clinton rising. Indeed, in head-to-head pairings Trump is at his lowest level since mid-August 2015, while Clinton is also at her lowest levels since polls began testing her against Trump. Familiarity is breeding something other than contentment.
In other words, although Trump is tanking, Clinton is not flying high. This, together with the majority unfavorable ratings both candidates receive in poll after poll, suggests there is considerable resistance to both parties’ presumptive presidential nominees.
