Fiorina: Hillary Would ‘Trounce’ Donald Trump in General Election

In an interview with “The John Gibson Show,” presidential candidate Carly Fiorina took a shot at rival Donald Trump, saying that he was the only Republican incapable of beating Hillary Clinton.

“Do you think that if Donald Trump was the nominee and up against Hillary Clinton, that he could win?” asked Fox New Radio host John Gibson.

“I do not, and I think that much of the — it is very early,” she said. “But much of the head-to-head match-up data says that the one person that Hillary Clinton trounces in a general election is Donald Trump.”

The polling data largely backs Fiorina up. At no point in the 2016 race has Trump ever beaten Clinton in the RealClearPolitics average of the five most recent polls, although occasionally an outlier poll will show him with a lead.
