Are you sure that is not the global warming graph showing 10 years of the last 20 being the warmest in history?

This graph looks just the opposite of President Obama after 8 years of polling but he continually lost the next 3 elections..... the final results

ELECTIONS ARE WHAT COUNTS!!!

The two special elections since the 2016 election both won by Republican. The next special election will be held in Georgia on the 20th of this month....stay tuned.....

It's always important to remind the lefties and the Democrats how bad a president Barry Obama was. The very best gauge in determining this is how well all Democrats did in both local and national elections during his tenure.

As Randall reminds us, the facts speak for themselves.

Here's a link to an updated story on this topic that I originally posted over 18 months prior. Again, facts are facts, and the Democrat spin along with their partners-in-crime, the liberal media, is just plain silly.

Are you sure this poll measures what you think it does? Could it be the people's frustration that both Liberals and Establishment are doing their best to block virtually ALL of Trump's efforts instead of working with him for the good of the Country? Could it be that his efforts to drain the swamp are not as fast as folks would like it to see?

Pool results can also be shaped/influenced greatly by how the Poll Question is phrased.

The poster believes in propaganda, he has been pushing all forms of propaganda for years. His polls for Presidential election were not different to all the wrong poll available. The thing that is never referenced is the effect of people who refuse to take polls because they are on to the questioning that is leading.

The declining approval numbers make total sense

The simple reality of Trump's tanking numbers makes total sense. He - and apparently those around him - have no clue as to how to get things moving in their direction. If he had begun his administration with a major infrastructure program he would have roped in labor support and that would have forced many Democrats to go along. The problem is Trump lacked the brains, guts, or both to stand up to his right wing who actually oppose spending on necessary infrastructure projects.

Note: the vast majority of these projects get bid to private sector contractors who repair roads, bridges, etc. It is not about hiring more government employees. It is about getting necessary work done and creating jobs which lead to pay checks and gives people money to spend. That is how you jump-start an economy. Tax cuts alone never have and never will get that job done.

Instead Trump pissed away months on the Ryan healthcare proposal which was, and remains, a total disaster. Precious time lost. But, here's the important point: There currently is no tax reform bill pending, a Senate health care initiative is being framed in secret with no input wanted or requested from Democrats or even Republicans outside the "inner circle."

Trump blames Democrats for delays in approving appointments when literally hundreds of Executive Branch jobs remain unfilled because Trump has not submitted candidates for approval. Is the problem he doesn't think we need those positions? If so, he should just say that. Or is the real problem he can't find qualified candidates willing to work for him?

Trump partisans can rant about draining swamps and all the other rhetoric. It was Trump - and no one but Trump - who has filled his cabinet with a cadre of Goldman Sachs (and other Wall Street) flunkies. That swamp is chock full of special interest insiders as ever. The image the other day of each of his cabinet members, sitting at a cabinet meeting, introducing themselves and then each delivering a fawning message of admiration about Trump was so staged and scripted. It all sounded a way too much like what I'd expect to see at Kim Jong-un fan club meetings. Seeing expressions of adoration for Dear Leader Trump is insane.

It's not really surprising that Trump seems to find characters like Kim, Putin, Egypt's el-Sisi, the Philippines President (and thug) Duterte, to be appealing. I have little doubt Trump really would prefer to have the powers of a dictator who can just snap a finger and make opposition disappear. That is more his style. If we're not careful and constantly vigilant, Trump's unhinged authoritarian tendencies could become more of a problem than we ever imagined.

Gallup and the alphabet networks polling usually have about 28-32 per cent GOP participants. Another unfair amount but that's life in the disingenuous world of Democrats and their partners in crime, the media.

Registered Republican voters make up way, way more than 32 per cent of those of voting age. Yet the acolytes and fringe Democrats love to remind us how Trump is hated or why Hillary cannot lose based on this (illigetimate) polling from 'major' news organizations.
