His approval rating is even lower at my house. In fact, he’s looking up at a zero. Waaaaaaaay up.
The mystery is figuring out what it would take to get down to the 27% crazification factor. Just how bad does it have to be?
In Mine, How low is it?
Through the mantle , through the core and clear out the other side of that planet
There is to much negative news about Trump, for the polls to reflect just noise.
“There’s only one poll that counts.”
These are good news, but they aren’t real news. The real news comes on November 7th. Until then, keep your hopes up, your powder dry, and your checks flowing to Democratic candidates. And wear out shoe leather, too.
I was happy to read in today’s WaPo article that GOP strategists still believe Trump is an asset in their fight to retain control of the Senate.
Of course Trump is an asset—a Russian one. Please proceed gentlemen.
Now if only Dotard would plunge as well.
From Trump Tower would be a nice touch…
If he could land on Alex Jones, I’d be much obliged.
In my house, Dotard has surpassed negative Google.
If his behavior to date can’t get him below 38 freakin percent, I’m guessing we’re looking at the floor right now. Frightening, really.
Am I the only one who still looks at figures like 38 - 54 and sez to himself: WTF? 38 per cent actually approve of what this guy has been doing for the last two years?
Is there an identification of party by number in these polls? It is nice to be given a percentage of any given question, but I am curious as to how many people represent a given party or not. You can tell me 100% of the Republicans approve of the §resident, but is that 5 people or 500 over the spread of the sample?
These are low-information voters who swallow Trump’s bullshit. They think he’s really sticking it to other countries on trade. They think they’ve gotten a huge tax cut, even when they haven’t. They think he’s keeping “the browns” out of the country, and that that’s a good thing. You get the depressing picture.
Trump is in the Bush 2006 zone in terms of polling. He has passed that inflection point where the American people have rendered judgments about the doubts they’ve been harboring about him. The Woodward book (though it’s a bit of disjointed drudgery) keeps coming to the same point in scene after scene and incident after incident: Trump can never keep it together for very long and comes up with screwed up, incoherent, rambling thoughts that make it virtually impossible for the government to function.
I think Trump’s unpopularity is only partly driving the generic ballot. The issues being raised at the district level have as much to do with GOP policies on health care, the tax cut, and issues with local or regional impact: teacher pay across the South and southwest, ECOT in OH, algae in FL, abortion rights, immigration as opposition to Trump. Where Trump’s bad summer is impacting the ballot is on relative energy and turnout. So, a poll might show an even race in the Senate or House, but the energy factor means that the Dems will get more of their voter coalition out than the GOP, which will lead to clear victories.
I have 108 targets on my House list, and I do think that winning over 60 of them is possible.
This is Embarrassing. To the POLLs. THEY are WAY OFF. Trump is universally LAUDED for his handling of the Puerto Rico hurricane even though that hater bitch MAYOR is totally incompetent. Puerto Rico is surrounded by water. Oceans of wet water. Why is this TRUMps responsibility? THousands OF SUPPORters came to hear HIS SPEECH in PA yesterday, and THEY WERE PUMPED up at the excitement of TRUMP speaking WORDS! FAKE POLLS!
ONe!!?!!??
Bad polls numbers for Trump are a double edge sword. He may feel the need to do something distracting and dramatic to pump them up. Like launch a war and then set about smearing those objecting to it as treasonous sissies. Since the vast majority of those voicing an objection would be Democrats he might figure it was a smart play.
