Donald Trump is Clearly the Weakest GOP General Election Candidate



The GOP primary race has essentially come down to four candidates: Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 100%, and Marco Rubio. Of these four, it is increasingly clear that, all his bluster to the contrary, Donald Trump would make the weakest potential foe for Hillary Clinton in the general election.

"Rubio, meanwhile, as might be expected, performs the best against Clinton, and like Cruz, has been moving consistently in the right direction relative to Clinton:


. . . "That is not to say that Trump would have no chance of winning; obviously, events on the ground or a major mistake by Hillary could catapult literally any Republican into the lead. But it’s becoming increasingly obvious that of the current Republican candidates, Trump’s chances against Hillary are clearly the weakest."
