Donald Trump vs. Nickelback is actually not the most bizarre poll making the rounds today

Donald Trump is less popular than the second most terrible band from the 90s, tiny insects that feed on human skin, and painful dental surgery to remove infected tooth pulp, according to a new national poll.

Yes, Public Policy Polling—the Democratic-leaning firm that brought you such hits as Florida-voters-believe-Ted-Cruz-is-probably-the-Zodiac-Killer and Trump-supporters-want-to-bomb-the-fictional-city-from-Aladdin—has found that voters have a more favorable opinion of Nickelback, head lice, and root canals than they do of the presumptive Republican nominee for president.

But Trump did come out on top in some of the survey matchups. Like, given the choice of Making America Great Again or swollen, painful assholes, voters opted for Trump.

That is a weird poll.

But this one might be weirder: a new Quinnipiac University poll of voters in Florida, a swing state in the general election, found that a majority of voters believe that Hillary Clinton is more intelligent than Trump, that she has higher moral standards than Trump, and that she has the “temperament to handle an international crisis” more than Trump.

The same survey has Clinton nearly tied with Trump in Florida at 43% to 42% in a head-to-head matchup.
