Wrong. I never dismiss polls for any reason. I will warn against using certain polls such as Rasmussen which has consistently shown themselves to be very right leaning in their polling results but it is only a warning.
There is no known correlation between fund raising and election results. From the information I could find, Hillary Clinton out-raised Donald Trump by about $230 million in the 2016 campaign. How did that work out for Clinton?
And you are totally correct on the Obama-Trump approval ratings at this point in time in their presidencies. Obama was slightly ahead. However, on election day 2012 Obama's approval rating had risen to the 50% range, with even Rasmussen having him at 51-49 approval. A long way to go and certainly Trump can do the same.
