Trump approval ratings thread 1.3

[Adam Griffin]

Pretty much everybody who disapproves of Trump's twitter presence is either a) a Democrat who'd disapprove of him regardless or b) an absolute Trump supporter who approves of him but loves to offer up something along the lines of "I definitely don't approve of his Twitter use: see, I'm not an absolute Trump supporter!".

So I figured I'd take a stab at guessing what Trump's approval was in each of those battleground states in the poll and then see what all the states combined would average by weighting them along their share of the 2016 electorate. Without revising anything after projecting each state, my combined "gut number" came out right on (46% approval in the battlegrounds). Mainly just for fun, but maybe it can at least give us some parameters. "TMP" is the Trump approval figure:
