Just got recent Poll - much higher than President O at same time....Well, much more has been accomplished!

I sincerely think his whole Presidency is basically to get back at Barack for what he did at that dopey dinner.

lmao

I can't for the life of me understand how he is rationalizing that in his head. It only makes sense if he thinks tax reform was so big and so meaningful that it trumps everything Obama did, which in his first 2 years, was decently substantial. Obviously I wish it had been more, or at least different things, but it wasn't nothing. And Trump can't use Gorsuch as an excuse here either, because Obama had two justices of his own, and Gorsuch wouldn't have even been an option had his party decided that stealing scotus seats was maybe a step too far if they ever want to have reasonable relations with Congressional Democrats.

Meanwhile, with Republicans, literally all they've done is a scam tax bill that is leaving us deeper in debt and little else, rolling back some regulations, and passing budgets that their own party seems to hate. This is all on top of them essentially planning on doing nothing for most/all of 2018!

It's these kinds of little pointless and easily disproven lies that make me question why his supporters stand by him. He lies about everything, even the little things that do not matter.

In his delusional head, Trump has single-handedly prevented a major terrorist attack, put a massive stop to illegal immigration and deported more criminals than any prior president, ended ISIS as a threat forever, saved millions of lives by stopping Syrian chemical weapons in the tracks, saved a major NATO ally (Turkey), revitalized the entire US economy while paving the way to the future, saved more millions of American lives by single-handedly fixing a broken health care system, turned us back into a real superpower, and prevented otherwise inevitable nuclear wars with Russia and North Korea. And probably a hundred or a thousand more I didn't quote. The man is insane.

I am  surprised that he hasn't taken credit for beautiful sunsets.

Cutting EPA regulations => More air pollution => More colorful sunsets.  QED.

Prior poll was probably unrealistically low.

Gallup is usually so stable. It's still within his average though.

Prior to the last couple of samples, Gallup had a couple months of unusual stability, but that was exceptional.  Before that it was typically noisy for the most part.  Check out the weekly average graph.

I like stable. Less hot takes that way.

Does trump still have lowest approval of any modern president at this point in the term?

[GeorgiaModerate]

Does trump still have lowest approval of any modern president at this point in the term?

Probably not.  I'm fairly sure Carter was lower at this point in 1978, and even Reagan (who declined steadily until early 1983) may have been lower at the end of April 1982.

[KingSweden]

I think Carter is lower *at this point* (April of Year 2). However he was definitely much lower than any modern peer for all of Year One.

Rofalmo....the average American can't even find Korea on a map let alone let it influence their voting behavior

The fact is that people has gotten used to Trumps clownfonery and just aren't as offended by it anymore. I know because I don't even care what he says or does anymore. Besides that, the economy is doing good and nothing major is going on now.

It also doesn't help that nothing the useless MSM predicts about Trump ever actually happens. They've cried wolf so many times with articles about how Trump's tarrifs would ruin the economy etc... Naturally, people just check out since none of the headlines threats ever come to fruition

I can see Trump pulling a Bush where he is just popular enough to stay in full control until the wheels start to fall off the bus.

IMO, a recession will do Trump in before 2020 but ironically he's going to be great for Democrats downballot in the way Bill Clinton and Obama were a disaster for Democrats downballot

[LimoLiberal]

With the Reuters/Ipsos Millennials poll and the Gallup poll, today has been a disastrous day for Democrats.

And if that happens after dems win the House in November,  too many will belive his 'blame the obstructionist Dems' BS.

Given this was the same week as that terrible performance for Lesko, I’m not too worried.
