Trump hits 52% approval rating.

Yes I know, I'm cherry picking one of Trump's better showings, but 52% is up from 46% just a few days ago. Conventional wisdom says it's pretty hard to beat an incumbent president with a 50% or higher approval rating.

Should Dems be worried that their radical agenda is going to put Trump back in office for a second term?

The Rasmussen poll I chose was cherry picked only because it's recent, reliable, and newsworthy; showing Trump gaining momentum up to a new high of 52%; unlike your polls that are old, outdated, and unreliable.

 

"52%", eh



rasmussen must only be polling overfed, "poorly-educated" rubes in rural Murica now.


rasmussen ...

 

A more comprehensive polling result...

 

Rasmussen is the exception that the proves the rule that Trump stinks American noses.

Yes, you are, cherry picking. So don’t.

 

sadly Trump is the best republican have, so yeah, most republicans gonna plug their nose and vote for him

 

I like cherry picking the most accurate pollster of 2016, especially when it shows Trump with a 52% approval rating.

https://thehill.com/media/306721-rasmussen-calls-itself-most-accurate-pollster-of-2016

 

Now I guess you are going to tell us the CNN whos 10pts below Rasmussen and below the average is the only accurate one....lol

Rasmussen was the most accurate pollster the last 3 election cycles.

 

Yes I know, we saw similar "comprehensive" polls in 2016. How'd it turn out for you?

 

And now back to the “most accurate” bullshit.

Rasmussen’s final poll of 2016 got the national vote split nearly right on. But they had been an outlier up until then, and their performance since than has sucked.

And none of it justifies cherry picking a single poll or pollster.

 

How can any poll be known to be an outlier until the election has been decided? Have you ever considered the possibility that all your liberal BS polls are the outliers, and Rasmussen the non-outlier? You should consider that a possibility, because it happened in 2016.

 

Just because Rasmussen hit the number on the nose in one poll doesn’t mean the other polls were inaccurate. They were off by an average of only 1-2 percentage points, which is in line with the historical average.

Looks like somebody cherry picked only the most positive polls for Trump. Not very accurate or objective, but makes for great propaganda.

Trump's real approval is between 42.2% and 44.7% depending on how you aggregate the polls. These polls are in the territory of an incumbent who loses. But there is room for him to try to get to 50%. Unfortunately his approvals have been incredibly stable compared to other presidents, and he has been at the same general approval since May 2018 with little real change. Another way he wins is if he runs against another unpopular democrat again, like he did last time.

You know that the approval rate is supposed to be higher than the disapproval rate. You do know that right?

 

No it's not. It was the only major poll that had the GOP AHEAD of the Dems before the Midterm. They lost a lot of credibility after that blown call.

FOX, on the other hand, called the Midterms almost perfectly. Here's their latest poll:

• Approve45
• Disapprove54

9 points underwater is not where Trump wants to be.

 

Rasmussen? LOL

 

EVERY Knows that Rasmussen is a Complete Joke.

Trump is Underwater in every other poll.

Rasmussen?

 

No, he was not this far behind on election day. He'd better find some way to appeal to moderate voters if he's going to win next year.

Poorly. I didn't want Trump or Hillary.

 

He only ever gets there with Rasmussen

When you look at 538 or any of the others he rarely hits 45%

 

It should be noted that the aggregate of 44.7% is higher than what Obama's approval rating was at the same time frame in his Presidency. It's also the first time that the aggregate approval rate has been higher than Obama during the entire Presidency.

 

Polls aren't "supposed" to be anything other than the mood of the moment they were made. Rasmussen had Trump at 46% or so a week ago, now he's at 52%. For the moment, that's good news for Trump and bad news for the Dems.

 

Obama went up and down...his highest rating was almost 70% and that was with inheriting a horrendous economy. Trump inherited the stock market that had nearly tripled as well as a growing economy. Don’t you wonder why Trump can’t even get 50% with this good economy? People realize he is a con artist and a loose cannon and a pathological liar

 

You are correct to a degree. However when looking at what the Dems have going so far there aren't many moderates that will vote for them either. And some may very well plug their noses, possibly again, and vote Trump just because of how far left the current Dem contenders are.

What amounts to open borders. Bernie for example wants to decriminalize what is now considered illegal border crossings. Others simply just don't want to enforce the law except in extreme cases. In both instances there is essentially no border law being enforced the way it is supposed to be enforced. Hell, its even worse than what HAS been enforced. And we currently have the easiest of immigration policies in the entire world.

ALL of them raised their hands to advocate for medical care for illegal aliens. They haven't even gotten Citizens that and they're already arguing in favor of it for illegals? That turns off A LOT of people.

And then there's Beto and "forced buyback". That is a non-starter even for some Democrats. Other candidates want essentially the same thing only without the "forced".

And then there is the whole cancel culture, identitarian BS that people are starting to fight back on.

Trust me, the current Crop of Dems have no advantage over Trump this election season. They're about even at best, at worst Trump is going to win because of those things I listed. The Dems have gone too far to the left and has embraced extremism. That is turning off a lot of ordinary people of which makes up the vast majority of the US.
