Rasmussen Poll: Michelle Obama would beat Trump

Rasmussen Poll: Michelle Obama would beat Trump

She says she doesn’t want the job, but her actions tell a different story

A recent Rasmussen survey of a hypothetical match-up between former First Lady Michelle Obama and President Trump has Obama victorious.

From Rasmussen:

Michelle Obama has been making the rounds promoting her new book, prompting buzz about a potential presidential run, which she has vehemently denied. But with the midterms over and the focus on 2020, voters think she’d stand a chance.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that, in a hypothetical matchup, 50% of all Likely U.S. Voters would vote for Obama over President Trump. Forty-three percent (43%) would vote instead for Trump’s reelection.

…Most voters (60%) continue to have a favorable opinion of the former first lady, including 44% who view her Very Favorably. Thirty-six percent (36%) have an unfavorable opinion of Obama, including 22% with a Very Unfavorable one. This shows little change from 2016, though slightly more voters have a favorable opinion of her today.

As Professor Jacobson blogged back in April, “Michelle Obama may be best Dem hope for 2020, but says she doesn’t want the job. That’s all well and good, but she’s ACTING like an Obama who is running, justifying her husband and herself as the adults in the room, and deriding Trump voters just like Hillary did.”

Like Hillary, her accomplishments amount to nothing but the imagination of the MSM.

    Do you think the Press would ever ask her why she was forced to surrender her law license in Illinois?

    Nope.

      Milhouse in reply to MattMusson. | November 20, 2018 at 1:46 pm

      She wasn’t. No such thing ever happened. Not to her, and not to her husband. Stop spreading lies. There are enough truthful ways to attack her; lying just discredits anything else you have to say.

    Edward in reply to puhiawa. | November 20, 2018 at 10:44 am

    Another two years of the MSM attacking the President and giving Moochelle fawning coverage might actually make it a contest – if she ran.

    Wonder how many of those saying they want her to run are really thinking they would be electing His Imperial Executiveness for another 2 terms while Moochelle stays on a more or less permanent taxpayer paid vacation with her mother, children and entourage?

      First Michael would have to “survive” the Clintons.

      You think the Clintons will let another Obama “cheat” them again – even with all the blackmail material the Chicago Mafia/Obama Mob has on the Clintons?

      No way!

Is Rasmussen on drugs?

    Milhouse in reply to Ghostrider. | November 19, 2018 at 8:20 pm

    Rasmussen reports what people tell it. The same people who voted for her husband would vote for her too. She would let him do all her presidenting, while she went back to living the good life.

    She’s their hero in theory, but in reality Trump or a surrogate would turn her into a raging angry victim beast who is ashamed of her country in about 3 minutes.

    Raging angry female beasts can cry racism, but they aren’t very electable.

I was surprised she didn’t run in 2016. I was completely expecting her to jump into the race at the last minute, to do Hillary out of the honor of being, as my friend buzzsawmonkey puts it, “the first first lady lady parts president”.

well she’s a darn good liar… so yep, she’s good Dem candidate?

/severe eye roll I fell over

Pretty hard to believe, no matter what Rasmussen says. Although I do believe Moochelle could beat Hillary.

    Miles in reply to UJ. | November 19, 2018 at 9:06 pm

    Hell, UJ, Bernie Sanders could beat the Hilterbeast. And if the dems didn’t stab him the back during the ’16 primaries, he would have.

Ridiculous.

Laura whistling past the graveyard here. Yes, should be a total disaster. Yes, she would likely win. Obama won twice, are we going to wake up yet?

didn’t the polls show Hillary winning right up to election day, did not work out. I’m surprised Bloomberg didn’t run, he would have been the 2016 version of Perot

    oldgoat36 in reply to ronk. | November 19, 2018 at 10:55 pm

    Though he would have taken votes from Hillary, given his very left leanings and anti-gun stances.

    notamemberofanyorganizedpolicital in reply to ronk. | November 20, 2018 at 5:58 pm

    Yes, I think you are 100% correct on that, with the “polls” giving Hillary about a 96% chance of winning right up until the hour Hillary had to concede………

DieJustAsHappy | November 19, 2018 at 9:14 pm

I wonder if any of the people who indicated that they would vote for Michelle Obama had a notion that this would mean Barack’s third term? Also, my guess is that there are any number of people who supported him would still want to see it justified. Michelle and he could ride a wave, so to speak, of the hard work that President Trump has done.

And, of course, the media would be all over this. Big time, like they were for him.

She has exactly the same chance of beating Trump in 2020 that Hillary had in 2016.

Some of you might be asking, why isn’t she up by 50%?

LOL

Is the Presidency some type of inheritated title only open to Bushes or Clintons or Obamas? Americans are fools to put themselves in the situation where only certain families can be elected President. Perhaps I should amend that last sentence – Americans are fools.

If I was polled, I would surely tell them that I would vote for the D. Let them believe in their dream.

In reality, I will never vote for Hillary or Michelle or any D. They do not represent anything that I believe in. Ever…

I am so sick of the ruling class elites. All elites.
The America that Tocqueville saw seems like it never existed.

I can enjoy the prospect of Hillary running against an Obama. Again.

Sad to say I can believe this, though the main reason for her to prevail would be sexist and racist reasons, not for accomplishments or even experience in anything but being racist against America.

While I do not hold political experience or lack thereof against a candidate, I would hold lack of any experience in running anything against them. It’s why Senators or Representatives usually did not fair well as compared with Governors. Obama had no experience in running things, hence he let Jarrett run the country while he stood and talked pretty while behind the teleprompters. He was an empty suit, just as Michelle would be.

The stupidity of the American electorate would certainly hit rock bottom electing her. I don’t think this country would survive another Obama Presidency.

    Making prison food look like a Michelin 3-star restaurant compared to school lunches is (to me) quite an accomplishment.

franciscodanconia | November 19, 2018 at 11:44 pm

^^^^THIS

Empty suit is how I often describe B. Obama. That and he’s the king of the strawman argument.

What has she done with her life since she let her law license expire 20+ years ago? It wouldn’t surprise me if boobus americanus would support her candidacy, the same people who watch lots of liberal-slanted broadcast TV and whatnot.

Well, my goodness. Just imagine.

And, sure enough, would Barack Hussein Obama just absolutely make the most perfect first First Lady-man or would he not.

Ha!

Mooochelle is an armpit

Rasmusswen isnt far behind.

Question is…will she be able to stop herself from running?

I don’t think she will be able to resist the temptation to remain in the spotlight…What with her husband and her essentially being nothing more than attention whores of the first order.

If we postulate that sensible people don’t waste any of their valuable time with pollsters . . .

. . . it follows that polls—even honest ones—can tell us little about how sensible people intend to vote.

Problem is that she would actually have to RUN and CAMPAIGN.

Who did they poll ,, leftist colleges & universities ?? Just another Bird Cage Liner not fit to read !!

Entitlement doesn’t make a good foundation for a campaign.

Remember how Mooch whined about being under a microscope and having to live in a house built by slaves? Doesn’t matter. If she had to live there to deliver the coup de grace to the country, she would.

She maybe a citizen however,I still don’t vote for Communists.

Beto almost beat Cruz

My red county went blue in Texas

Beto, a fake Latino beat a real Latino

Beto, a skate boarding, guitar playing ex nanny

Who happened to marry a billionaires daughter

I realized the American people are very dumb and although “they” deserve 8 years of racist Mechelle

I don’t

Very depressing

    Edward in reply to gonzotx. | November 20, 2018 at 11:12 am

    Robert Francis did far, far better than anyone could have expected. All that money he piled up from CA and NY certainly helped on that issue, as did Candidate Trump’s attacks of two years ago – we still saw “lying Ted” brought back up.

    Perhaps the single biggest issue contributing to your county turning “blue”, and Robert Francis doing so well, is the level of emigration from California to Texas. According to IRS latest year data (2013-14) 33,626 people filing tax returns showed an address change from CA to TX. And TX has been the #1 destination for people leaving CA for at least a decade. Some, I’m sure, are bailing CA for the freedom denied them in CA. But some are bailing out of the mess they have made of CA and will bring their ideology and voting which ruined CA with them to TX.

    The Irish fake Hispanic did not beat the real Hispanic – thankfully.

    I’m gobsmacked at the level of stupidity displayed by so many of the voters across the country.

Are only saving grace is that she is by nature lazy

I will say she is filling stadiums withb14,000 people with her little book tour with Oprah

She and her little she man are on the way to becoming billionaires, don’t know if she would deem it worth her time.

Pretty sure she misses the sleepovers at Windsor and the wed night parties with The Who’s who of the entertainment industry, but as a billionairess, she can build her own castle and buy a tiara.

It will up to Soros and co World Order commands.

They made the Obamas, and they will break them, if they don’t obey.

Remember Frank Luntz bragging that Sanders would beat Trump in exit polls on Nov 7th.

These polls about people where they didnt run directly against the peson in question are useless. They don’t reflect the results of the actual campign being run against them and what the voters would feel then.

If Michelle Obama ACTUALLY ran it she would have to answer questions and it all falls apart quickly. Fantas polls about everybody BUT Hillary Clinton beating Trump are just that. Fantasy.

    Democrat candidates require nothing more than brand loyalty. They are testing the waters to see how it plays. They got nothing

Hmm, what’s that sound I hear? Is that Hillary sharpening her knives? This should be interesting.

The Bradley/Wilder Effect on steroids.

“Make School Lunches Terrible Again!”

Here lavish government paid vacation experience clearly qualifies her. What a joke…

Surely someone knows the scoop on her tranny status. If she thinks of running this would be the time to bring it out.

In normal times I would scoff at the thought of this hateful woman running for POTUS but if you have been watching the last races you will have noticed that traditionally red states have become very marginal and are almost 50/50 on total votes. Look at the FL governor race! Gillum is a small town crook who almost got elected to the top office in FL! A black windbag almost got elected to the top office in GA! Look at the mess in MI where a black crook from the clinton admin is running against a Republican in the Senate runoff and it is too close to call. CA is gone from the R column. AZ is going blue at a rapid pace and Texas just barely elected Cruz by about 1%. Moochell could easily win the battleground states of FL, GA, WI, MI, PA. As horrible as it is to think of she just might have a shot at it. Maybe me and Babs Streisand can get on the same Canadian train!

OncealwaysaMarine | November 20, 2018 at 8:10 pm

I neither believe she is liked by a majority of American voters nor that she would defeat President Trump.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Rasmussan must have been drunk when doing the polling! That Tranny couldn’t get elected to being a driver of a sewer truck!

The commie candidate starts out with a guarantee of roughly 40% of the vote in every state, higher in many. Trump will have to depend upon the 20% that inhabit the mushy middle. That is 20% of some of the dumbest idiots to ever have freedom. They’ll trade it in a heartbeat for feel good wording and “free” stuff.

A Quinnipiac University poll in May of 2015 showed Hillary beating Trump 50 to 32. It was the very first Hillary vs Trump poll.

Polls are a useless as……. WELL never mind , BUT the term first lady would work very well for the so-called male of this farce.

Why would she want to be POTUS? After all, she was never proud to be a citizen, until her husband tried to point the country into a death spiral. Just sayin’….

Robert Arvanitis | November 21, 2018 at 2:36 pm

Wait – one ex-Flotus coasting on her husband’s meager accomplishments, against another ex-Flotus coasting on HER husband’s… wait the second one lacked any virtues.
How ever shall we decide?!
