Jimmy Kimmel is more popular than Donald Trump, a new poll has found, following a public showdown between the two men that resulted in the talk show host being briefly taken off-air.

The survey, conducted by YouGov, asked respondents if they held favorable opinions of both men.

When asked about Kimmel, 44 percent said they had a favorable opinion of the comedian, while 41 percent said they did not. Fifteen percent said they were undecided, giving Kimmel a net favorability of +3.

    What’s the point of words like favorable opinion when it results in a 16 point split between a late show comedian and a Nazi conman?

    I don’t know what opinion means, or what it means for people to state their answer, other than the superficial takeaway that they produced noises xyz when prompted with question 123. And? Is there any solid ground here to build on top of?
