Trump approval ratings thread 1.3

For the gazilionth time: respect us who have limo on ignore and stop quoting him.

Thanks.

Lol, you shouldn't feel disrespected if someone chooses to engage with a poster you don't like. That goes for everyone, you may not like it but until Limoliberal is banned or stops posting, people are allowed to interact with him. It's stupid to try and police other posters posting decisions.

Lyndon was probably joking.

43% is about where pretty much every modern President besides the Bushes have been at this point. Not really indicative of anything.

I agree, but there are many posters on here who believe it somehow portends a Dem landslide in 2020. Obama’s numbers in the summer of 2010 were basically exactly where Trump’s are now, but that’s an ignored fact around here.

Lmao you're really trying to shove in our faces the fact that a first-term president has only increased his favorability 2.6 pts in a year and a half. His job approval has been in the dumps since he began his presidency and the averages continually show him down.

I wonder how much of the drop is just Gallup reverting back from an outlier.

The North Korea Trump scam probably gave him a temporary bump but Trump will never have a high approval rating. He's too disgusting for most of this country to fathom and he only caters to his rapidly dwindling base.

December 2017 36% approval
June 2018 44% approval

Where is the dwindle?

During the 1964 election....it is estimated that Goldwater won 80% of Nixon's 1960 Republican vote share. Same with Hoover in 1932. Trump is popular only among what's left of the GOP and that isn't enough for him to ever be generally popular or win re-election. Sooner or later demographics are destiny and Trump isnt doing anything to grow his decrepit base of pissed off white Boomers and dying Silents.

Obviously his approval rating has gone up as more Americans have gotten accustomed to having a buffoon in orange clown face as president but if the best you can do is 41% with one of the lowest unemployment rates in decades then may lawd jesus have mercy upon your soul.

Bad attitude to have when it comes to elections. Just some advice.

How is it a bad attitude?  Because it's logical and it means you'll be losing more and more in the future?

twenty42: Um.... You lost the election!!!

Kind of sad when you step back and look at all the obsessing we do over Trump's poll movements.

This isn’t entirely true...you only obsess over downward poll movements. A 0.4% downtick in his numbers will get five threads, but a 0.4% uptick is meaningless noise.

Thunder98 should never call out Hofoid again after a ridiculous post like this.

I’m guessing you don’t see the times when people got anxious over his climb in the polls...

Also why are you so upset over such a harmless post?

Because twenty is a trump supporter and that's what they do
