You’d never know it from news coverage — or from last month’s midterms — but the electorate has warmed up to Donald Trump. An Emerson College poll shows the president getting his best job approval ratings since near the beginning of his presidency.

https://hotair.com/archives/2018/12...est-job-approval-numbers-since-february-2017/

With 99+% of the press coverage being hyper-negative... ROTFLOL...

And now Trump has the Looney Leftists in the House to make minced meat out of.

Emerson College National Poll: Trump's Disapproval Matches All Time Low

"Looking to the new year, Americans are positive: 47% expect that 2019 will be better than 2018, with 30% saying things will be worse next year. However, the poll also found that a plurality of Americans (42%) plan to spend less this holiday season than last year. 27% plan to spend more, and 31% indicate they will spend the same amount as last year. About a quarter of Americans (24%) consider there to be a war on the word “Christmas,” while 51% said there is not."

Interesting enough.

I've always wondered about that 30% who believe things will be worse in the future. "I'm tellin ya, things are gonna get really, really bad. And then you die." You couldn't give those sumbitches a car without them worrying about when it'll break down. And in truth, at some point it will. So, you could drive the damn thing and be happy, or you could worry all along the way until it does finally break down, when you can jump up and say, "See! I told ya!" There's truly no hope for some people.

Yeah. I mean things have never gotten worse before in human history.

Only better all the time, right?

Super pathetic bragging about Trump reaching 50% approval in a single poll. Newsflash - Trump has yet to hit the 50% national mark even once in almost two years in office. In fact, he is the most unpopular (disapproved of) president in over 70 years.

So...you are celebrating that slightly less than half of Americans dislike Trump? That is like celebrating the trash can not overflowing. It's still trash, but you are happy there isn't as much.

Same or better number as Obama, and Obama had the media licking his vagina and propagandizing for the incompetent 24/7/365.

95% negative coverage from the Goebbels Inspired Media Propagandists (GIMPs) and he’s at the same number as Obama at this time during his reign of error.

No.

You have a problem with reading comprehension I see.

No, I don't. The article you referenced was from "Hot Air"; the survey was from Emerson College. I was laughing at "Hot Air".

You are laughing at a website making information public?

OK.

Complaining about a website providing the public information you do not like.

OK.

You Leftists prove daily, you’re truly demented.

What is it about being educated you folks so despise?

I will take a guy who might misspell a word and loves the country, over a Leftist who wants to “fundamentally change” the greatest country in the world into another failed socialist ****hole.

You obviously seem to love ****holes.

Venezuela is waiting.

France is waiting.

Cuba is waiting.

Chicago is waiting.

Oh... You live in Jersey. ROTFLOL... that ain’t ****hole enough for you?

Read the OP.

If you cannot figure it out, I suggest you aren’t intellectually astute enough to participate here... for it’s not that tough to decifer.

Says the person with the avatar you have? Sure.


As for the information, you're selective with what you choose to present. If you were really interested in polling information you'd select a much broader base and average it out rather than one that fits the numbers you want. Oh, and you have to stop assuming everyone who doesn't support Trump is a leftist.

Again, says the person with the avatar you have on display.

I do love it when folks go to worst case scenario with everything. I love where I live; not that your opinion on the matter is relevant.

I did read the OP. You seem to be bragging about Trump having similar poll numbers to the beginning of his presidency on one poll.

Are you bragging or just giving us an update? The latter is not thread worthy, the former is just sad.

And now Trump has the Looney Leftists in the House to make minced meat out of.

If you look at the graph, Trump's approval has been pretty steady since April, averaging around 43% approval, 53% disapproval. Fact is Trump's highest approval of 45.9% was way back on 7 Feb 2017 at the beginning of his presidency. His lowest of 37.1% was back on 17 Dec 2017. That's not good as it seems people are pretty well locked in to how they view Trump, positive or negative.

We all know most Republicans will approve of Trump, most Democrats disapprove. That being the case, it is all about independents. Independents have give Trump a high of 42% approval, back on 31 Jan 2017 to a low of 30% on 29 August 2017. Trump will probably be stuck at around a 40% approval unless he discovers a way to sway independents. It was independents that put Trump in the White House by voting for him 46-42 over Hillary Clinton with 12% voting third party. It was independents that gave the House to the Democrats this year by voting for Democratic congressional candidates by a 54-42 margin.

I think the bottom line is Trump is in trouble if independents continue to side with the Democrats over his last two years in office. One has to remember, the Republican Party is still the smaller of the two major parties and has been since FDR.

It’ll come down to the economy. Trump righted Obama’s ****hole economy.

Also a factor... the Democrat nominee. But... their bench is empty, old and Socialist. Thanks Obama.

Comrade Betov would get massacred.

Old Joe Biden, the gaffe machine, who never held a private sector job in his life will get slaughtered too... and he is their best chance to date.

Hillary? Nope. The Clinton Tour illustrated they’re dead.

Kamala Toes? Nope. A light weight who used her vagina to reach her position. She poses well, but that’s about it.

Retardicus? ROTFLOL... nope. A proven moron.

Who will they run? My guess is they will send out someone to get slaughtered.

Are you bragging or just giving us an update? The latter is not thread worthy, the former is just sad.

So why did you ask why the OP was created? Why not comment on the OP straight away?

You obviously have issues with the OP. Must be tough being a Leftist. Someone provides factual information you dislike, you obviously have no idea how to respond to it, and create a dimwitted first post. You seem to have mistaken this forum for Democratic Underground.*

Did you see anything indicating bragging? Did you?

So, what did you really want to say?

May I suggest you spit it out directly next time instead of whining and crying like some triggered snowflake.

*I suggest you post there until you can figure out how to debate. Then come back here and grace us with your intellect.
