Trump approval ratings thread 1.2

[Yank2133]

Republicans and Trump are going to make massive gains because of this. Look at the companies announcing higher minimum wages and bonuses. The tax plan will be very popular in a couple of weeks, I guarantee it.

This is weak.

You can do better then this.

There is a massive PR campaign underway look at what AT&T, Comcast, Wells Fargo, Fifth Third with their 'bonuses' its all coordinated. This was all planned by Trump/GOP.

These are all companies who have violated federal laws, are trying to get mergers approved, or in Comcast's case...grateful for Net Neutrality repeal

Didn't AT&T support the repeal too?

[henster]

I'll be a bit more nuanced Trump will remain unpopular because of his toxic personality and temperament even if he gets popular things enacted into law. The tax cuts may get his JA up to 42-45 which is really his base until he does something stupid again that repulses voters.

Their trying to get the DOJ to approve it's Time Warner merger too

A lot of these CEOs are big donors anyways and have a vested interest in seeing their majorities retained. These bonuses were probably in the works for months regardless of what eventually passed.

Well, it's more of a feedback loop, the way I see it.

Don't worry limo. This thread is titled "Trump approval ratings" but it's actually "Daily dose of libs trying to feel better in Trump's America".

Doug Jones+1.5

44 point swing in Tennessee yesterday

RIP the GOP in 2018. They need to moderate and become more reasonable so they get educated swing voters like me back into their fold.

Bragging about Doug Jones winning is like bragging about catching fish with sticks of dynamite.

Roy Moore threw away what should have been the surest of all Senate seats. That was a freakish circumstance. But we can also ask why the approval for Trump is equal with disapproval in Alabama among people who voted in the special election, something inconceivable a couple months ago. Maybe Roy Moore tore at support for this President.

Then I look at a poll of Tennessee of a Senate race of 2018, and I see a near tie in approval for the President. This is in a state with demographic similarities, and Roy Moore obviously has nothing to do with Tennessee politics. Mississippi? So the President has an approval rate of 51%. He would win, but that bodes ill for the President in 2020. A Trump win nationwide implies that the President has an approval rate in the high 50s and over 60% of the Mississippi vote.

So perhaps the President has a problem with mass perception. He has no cultural connections to the South. OK, neither did Ronald Reagan, who swept the South in his re-election bid. Uncharacteristic for any President, Donald Trump has no base of support in the three states containing his home.  He is as blatant a city slicker as there ever was,

OK, he is a thoroughly-nasty person, someone one can get along with only  if one thinks he can get something out of the transaction.

Wish we could get a good 50-state approval poll.

Two states of the Deep South, which is getting well characterized. It looks awful for Donald Trump.

The thrill is gone, baby! Or at least so it seems.

Mississippi. Weak. Very weak. Mississipi has politics largely related to an ethnic divide, but there obviously must be some erosion of white support for the President. I am not saying that Mississippi will be in play for a Senate seat in 2018 or for the Presidency in 2020. It will be one of the strongest states for the GOP  

Mason-Dixon polling.

Trump 51-43 in approval in a state he won by 18 points. ...

This approval map shows  electoral votes to the states on the approval map.

Trump approval, net positive

55% or higher
50-54%
44-49%

Ties are in white.

Trump approval, net negative

46-49%
40-45%
39% or lower

But raw disapproval numbers appear instead  of electoral votes here:

Disapproval (net negative for Trump) :

55% or higher
50-54%
44-49%

Ties are in white.

(net positive for Trump)
46-49%  
41-45%
40% or lower

At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if he is underwater (or at least very close to it) in MS at the moment.

Is it just me or does New Hampshire look like it has lower approvals for Trump on that map than Massachusetts or Vermont?
