Trump's approval rating spikes to six-month high
« on: January 03, 2018, 04:20:23 pm »
President Trump's weekly job approval rose to 39 percent in the final week of December, his highest rating in nearly six months, according to a Gallup poll released late Tuesday.

The last time Gallup respondents approved this highly of Trump was in a July 10-16 survey. Between then and now, Trump's approval rating has hovered between 35 percent and 38 percent.

So let me see if I understand this correctly.

His approval rating has hovered between 35 and 38 percent but has "spiked" to 39 Percent.

Many Americans perceive Trump as being somewhat of a  screwball. Maybe if he would quit the juvenile twitter rants and urination-contests with private citizens, more people would think better of him.
Yeah, I know...it's just not in him to act like an adult....... but we can dream can't we?

And the last time Gallup was right was ????

I don't think Trump's popularity has ever been that low but I do think it has increased a lot since Trump has actually done some things people like.

The people who first liked Trump still like him and a lot of the people who despised him are coming around.

This website supposedly "corrects" sampling differences, etc. and says that Trump's real approval rating is 44%.

Get out of here. His real approval is in the 90% range. Are you some sort of Hitlary supporter?

Well, that is five points higher than the week before election.

You K'no... the election Trump won with over 300 EV.  Hmmn Hmmnn hmnnn. Can you say "Landslide".  :laugh:

Clinton got 370 in 1992 with 43% of the vote, tried to claim a mandate, and got laughed out of the room.

Shoved up their patootie I'm sure. Because it feels so good when they pull it out.

In a legitimate three way race. Likewise the only people laufin' him out of the room was us. The democrat/regressive media were all in on Mandate.

Then Newt and 94 happened.

It was probably the toilet seat while he was taking a dump.
