On the plus side, at the current rate his approval ratings are falling, he’ll hit the baseline of 30% within a couple of weeks. After that, he can sleep well knowing he’s unlikely to fall any farther.
That 30% base would approve of him even if he strangled kittens on live TV.
Typically, one doesn’t actually reach the asymptote. Personally, I hope that Trump crosses zero and goes below.
I would think that’s the last thing they want because it will be immediately blamed on the Muslim ban. Sure, he’ll say “that’s why we had to do it”, but I would think most people would view it as cause and effect.

As of Jan 4-8th 2017 only 19% Approval (though statistically insignificant it’s actually up from just before the election where they were at 18%)
Googles ‘incumbent congress who lost in 2016’
Finds
Incumbents did very well in 2016. A total of 380 of the 393 House incumbents seeking re-election won, resulting in an incumbency rate of 96.7%.
Well, there’s this:
“I’d give him an A-plus,” Ms. Cottrell, 38, said from her salon, Mane
Attraction, on Main Street here in the seat of a conservative Ohio
county of pastures and maple groves where Mr. Trump won 70 percent of the vote. “He’s doing what he said he was going to be doing.”
Didn’t he already backtrack on that during the campaign? Shifted the blame to “my generals” who are supposed to bring him a plan “within the first 30 days” and either their plan or his original bestest ever plan would be immediately implemented and ISIS would be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
Likewise but the ongoing mystery is the 42%. 42% of Americans despise their country and are quite happy to see it destroyed.
Nah, he already is convinced that ALL “Real Americans” love him more than ANY President in History!
According to Baghdad Spicer it must be true, after all Trump “believes” it.
We can only hope.
I’m just not seeing any of that.
Which, years from now, when documents are declassified, we will learn was the result of Rudy Giuliani, Carter Paige, Gen Flynn, with help from Julian Assange and the Russian FSB, hacking 1,000 of the daily 1,500 Gallup Daily phone polling calls by having them forwarded to random numbers in Louie Gohmert’s congressional district.
If I recall correctly, when Darth Cheney left office, he was in the low 20’s (no, I haven’t and won’t Google it).
I wonder if Rump can match his numbers?
Well, everything he says has a small real component and a large imaginary component, so it will take complex analysis to predict his future support.
Dios te oiga…
Hmm… I don’t know - even W slipped down to 26% and hung around there for several weeks.
PeePee is unlikely to stay above that, especially when his trade war with Mexico (okay, I should say his first trade war - China may be next) means higher prices here and massive layoffs because the bottom falls out for exports. And the farmers get hit with a triple whammy when SNAP cuts mean no buyers, there are no Mexicans to pick the crops, and export demand plummets.
And then when Grandma moves in because her social security and Medicare are no longer enough to keep her off their sofa.
Remember, the 'pub voters only deem something as being important when it directly affects them.
Are weekend protests going to be a fixture of the presidency? Hope so.
You nailed it.
and I think he’d blame it all on Obama and provider alternate facts proving that the perpetrator(s) were let in under Obama (even if they turn out to be actual citizens by birth…)
W and Co tried to blame WJ Clinton for 9/11
Proving that Americans are so vain that they prefer an evil idiot savant with fake hair, to someone vastly smarter, with a larger vocabulary, who also dodged the draft during Vietnam, who actually shot someone in the face (albeit not on 5th Avenue), who is equally evil, equally non-photogenic, but has come to terms with his baldness.
the percentage who disapproved rose to 50 and percentage who approved dipped to 42.
This is all the proof you need of the conspiracy of the Arabic numbers that have infiltrated our great country. If the Democrat-controlled media allowed the use of the Patriotic English Number Identification System, or PENIS, Americans would know that Trump’s approval rating is 110%.
