he has a much higher negative score, much higher never score. says to me that he s got to do something very bold very quickly. his downside potential is great. fascinating to talk to you. anneselzer. great to get your insights today. thank you so much. my pleasure. time for my take. i m fascinated by the presidential poll numbers that we re seeing right now. the big question, of course, is whether or not they re the real deal or just a snapshot in time. sometimes you can actually glean more information about what americans are really thinking by looking at the myriad of questions stuffed inside of the polling, more specific questions other than just, who do you like? for example, in this new cnn/orc poll, look who is out on top on specific issues. when asked, who do you trust more than any other republican candidate on illegal immigration, 44% say they trust trump. that s up 30 points since june. when asked, which candidate do
