The Daily 202: Trump has reached his ceiling, with little or no room to grow

A generic Republican might be handily defeating Clinton, but Trump is not a generic Republican. Clinton’s net negative is 14 points (42 percent of likely voters view her favorably and 56 percent see her in an unfavorable light), but Trump’s is 25 points (37 percent favorable vs. 62 percent unfavorable). It is truly remarkable that Trump is down only four points among likely voters when you consider that the same poll also finds:

68 percent believe Trump has made unwanted sexual advances toward women. Just 14 percent say he has not.

57 percent said Trump’s response to the 2005 “Access Hollywood” video was insincere.

Only 40 percent agree with Trump that the comments are “locker room talk.”

57 percent say it's inappropriate for Trump to say that Clinton would be in jail if he were president for her use of a private email server as secretary of state.

4. "A generic Republican might be handily defeating Clinton," I strongly doubt this.
