The trend of rising approval is not limited to Rasmussen, and the RCP approval numbers continue trending upwards passing the 42% mark...and this includes a couple of absurdly weighted polls like Qunnipiac, Marist and Gallup. A rising tide lifts all boats and if this trend holds, its absolutely going to impact the midterms this fall.

Let me know when Trump hits 50% approval on TBR.

Just more proof......Trump is God.

I'm thinking God could hit 55%...minimum.

Imagine what his approval rating would be if he had managed to build a wall and repeal Bammycare like he promised.

Polls are polls and are in part skewed as to how the questions are asked.

Imagine if people didn't have totally unreasonable expectations of a man in his first year of Presidency ... a man who has actually accomplished a lot, but who couldn't build a wall and repeal Obamacare in spite of a Senate that did not want to support him in either cause.

Would you have him declare martial law, eliminate all civil liberties and simply impose his rule? As that's the only way he could achieve what you suggest, you might want to "reconsider" what you'd like him to do. His campaign promise...like all campaign promises...means that he will work his a$$ off to achieve the stated goals. Outside of becoming dictator, presidents don't simply get to have all that they want. Seriously.

In a country without school prayer? Good luck with that.

Well. Bill Clinton...at least, the female half.

Nope, definitely didn't have many expectations for Trump at all.  The problem as some of us knew is that he obviously didn't know the 'ins and outs' of the three branches of government.  Regardless if the Senate failed to approve his agenda or not, (known as checks and balances in our government) he made promises.  Promises that he campaigned on, promises that made people rally behind him.  He certainly had the opportunity to go along with the Freedom Caucus in the House with 'repeal' and he opted not to do so.  Trump shouldn't be given a free pass on the issue by any means nor should he be given a pass on amnesty; yet his die-hard supporters continue to pat him on the back.

You might want to quit with your ridiculous questions and consider what he promised he was going to do and how he bragged BIGLY about being a great negotiator and you just might want to consider the issues that he has backpedaled on.  Obviously no president is going to get all they want; but backing down from one's principles is why this country is in the mess that it's in!

To my knowledge, he hasn't backed down on any of his principles...but the man can't create 51 votes out of thin air. And, for the record, he IS a great negotiator...but he's not a magician. Realizing you have to give up SOMETHING when you negotiate with the other side in a Republican system of government...is common sense, not a surrendering of principle.

Well, you're entitled to your opinion in regards to backing down on principle in order to negotiate to make a deal and you can keep on believing that, but  IMO, compromising one's principles shows a lack of integrity and character.

What principle is it your claiming he's surrendered?

So tell us, if you don't have 50 votes...how do you pass a law to keep a campaign promise without compromising on some points that the other side wants?

Well, you better talk to Mitch the turtle and "RINO" Ryan about those items...

Now that was funny......
