    and what polls would that be? the polls that had you convinced Clinton was going to win?
    and Rasmussen has had him hovering around 50% for awhile so they are in the margin of error with this poll and not an outlier anymore

    Cons crack me up. When a Dem is POTUS polls and unemployment numbers are rigged and cooked. Yet they treat them as gospel when a Republican is in office. LOL

    Young folks are starting to realize that they can actually have a future if they reject the lies of the Progressive agenda.

    Hillary Clinton's excuse parade has opened up many eyes as to how bad the Obama administration really was. "Hope and Change," was really, "Rope and Chains."

    Some of the places where Joe touched young girls could have easily been reported to Child Services as a form of sexual abuse.

    I guess they don't want a progressive, preferring someone more in the center.

    So, what you’re saying is that only polls that show you what you want are accurate? Got it. Glad to see conservatives are still rational as ever.

    They are still rigged and cooked, but there is a limit to how much they can be distorted. Trump's approval is probably well north of 50%

    no the polls that have a proven track record of being accurate I consider accurate
    you go ahead and continue to believe the polls that had you convinced Clinton was going to win and I will believe the poll that accurately predicted the outcome

    Millennials that knew nothing except the Obama economy and thought that was normal are now getting a taste of an economy based on capitalism instead of socialism and they are liking what they see.

    Agreed.

    A lot of millennials haven't seen a strong economy before.

    Exactly.

    Zogby (for several years) has been considered a discredited poll with RW Bias.

    yes more accurate than the polls you use
    Both Zogby and Rasmussen final poll in the 2016 presidential race had Clinton in the popular vote by two points and the final result was Clinton by two points
    the polls you seam to cling too had Clinton by 4 points and more
    so like I said keep believing your inaccurate polls why I believe the ones that got it right

    You think those who "somewhat approve" will be out casting votes for him next year?

    Here is an EXPERT opinion on the Zogby Polls

    However, while the company’s website lists the poll’s sample size and margin of error, it does not provide additional information on the way they were collected. An email to Zogby Analytics requesting more information on the poll’s methodology was not answered.

    Redlawsk explains that polling agencies should be fully transparent with their methodologies. “Any poll where they don’t provide detailed methodological information should actually be ignored,” he said.

    “Zogby Analytics has a track record of remarkably inaccurate polls,” says Krosnick, noting that those inaccuracies are likely due to nonrandom sampling.

    ^(Emphasis added).
    ___________

    That said, you are certainly free to cite any poll that validates your confirmation bias.

    Trump does it all the time, so you are in good company.:salute:

    I did not find the methodology behind the survey, but if this was done by phone, his actual approval rating would be even higher.

    What was Rasmussen’s track record in 2018? Oh they were literally the least accurate pollster in the race? Lmao

    And wasn’t Zogby’s last poll in 2016 in August? Lol... come on.

    There's no question that this is good news for Trump. However (and I hate to rain on the parade) historically - when the economy was booming, Presidential approval was sky high. The fact that Trump is just at 51% seems best explained by people being influenced by his behavior. (see this).

    I'll also point out that even among the 51% of people approving of his job, there are likely some who dislike his behavior enough to result in their not voting for him. In the past, there have been Presidents whom I've approved of their jobs but didn't vote for him because I preferred another candidate.

    Nevertheless, you guys are entitled to cheer. This is good news for you.

    The polls said she would win the vote of the people. She did.

    They are absolutely an outlier.
