President Trump Job Approval

Dems told your beloved BLOTUS to shove his wall up his YUUUUUGE orange ass....sideways!

 

No kidding.

For Trump (and his sycophants) Today = EPIC FAIL!

Imagine feeling like you have to come to PF (all day/every day) just to defend a BETA MALE LOSER (Like Trump).

Talk about a Thankless Job. :smfh:

 

The only positive aspect to this is that the BLOTUS has blinked first. That means that he is starting to feel the pain of the shutdown. He was probably anticipating having all the attention of the SOTU speech and now that is gone so he has to figure out another way to make that happen. He is so transparent.

 

Common sense like that will destroy the internet, which is mostly built on naive, liberal, preconceptions.

 

Being up by 2 points nationally is meaningless when a candidate is up by 25 or 30 points in California.

Take California out and Trump was up in the popular vote.

A Dem could win California by 10 million votes, but it doesn't matter if the Republican wins a majority in the other 49 states.

 

You want to remove the worlds 6th largest economy as a metric for winning.

Remove religious fanatics and the Republican Party ceases to exist in its entirety.

I like trumps on words on the electoral college: “The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.”
There is a reason why no other country has adopted it.

 

I don't want to remove California. I'm simply stating a fact: a Democrat could win all 10 million of California's votes, but if the Republican wins a majority in the other 49 states, then he or she will win.

Your religious bigotry is disgusting.

Oopsie.

 

That's ..erm... Democracy in action. The UK's democracy - oops, first past the post - has seen few actual democratically elected governments in the UK. The most 'democratic' governments in the world are where the bullet box - I mean ballet box - remains supreme. Nicarague and Venezuala come to mind. Oh. And Kim Jon Thingummy.

Trump continues his trend of being around ten points underwater in the polling. Where the problem really lies is the strong approval/strong disapproval numbers. Taking Rasmussen as an example, Trump's approve/disapprove is 47/51. But the strongly approve/disapprove is 34/42. This shows up in other polls as well. The support Trump does have is soft.

 

I've decided tracking Trumps approval nationwide is a losing battle, since it's not really important. What is important is his approval state-by-state... And the final 2018 news wasn't good for him overall.. (you have to click the link to see the map)

SNIP
The 17 states with 50%+ approval ratings account for a combined total of 102 electoral votes. In contrast, the states in which Trump has an approval rating below 40% account for 201 electoral votes.

In order to get to the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency, Trump would have to win all but one or two of the states in which his 2018 approval rating was between 41% and 49%. Some of the more challenging states to win from among this group, based on that approval rating, would be Texas (41%); Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan (all at 42%); and Arizona and Florida (43%). Trump won all of those states in 2016, and thus it is certainly possible that he can do so again. But he clearly has a lot of ground to make up in those states to get close enough to 50% that he can finish with more electoral votes nationwide than the Democratic candidate.
