The Official Trump 1.0 Approval Ratings Thread

[Devout Centrist]

https://polling.reuters.com/#!poll/TM4_26_SCALE/type/smallest/dates/20161001-20161118/collapsed/true/spotlight/1

51%
49%

I take issue with any poll adding up to 100%, but it should be stated thats:

51% - Unfavorable
49% - Favorable

Basically the margin by which he lost the popular vote. Not surprising.

Remember, Reuters gave Clinton positive favorables at several points in the past couple months.

Two things:

1. Morning consult and other pollsters have shown better (albeit not great) numbers for Trump

2. Quinnipiac showed a much rosier picture for democrats than what transpired on November 8th, an anti-trump house effect might be showing in his approvals as well

SPIN BABY SPIN

Trump's approval took a hit because of the fake golden shower affair.

He will recover pretty soon.

There hasn't been time to measure the impact.

Besides, it hasn't dropped at all from last week. Maybe kinky people like me approve of him more now.

The topic offers a steady stream of psychological connotations.

He or Mike Pence might need a whites-only electorate to win re-election.

Fasten your seatbelts. We are in for a bumpy ride.

What wonderful times we live in!

New poll from Monmouth U, whose reputation probably took the largest hit among pollsters, conducted from 1/12 - 1/15:

34% Favorable, 46% Unfavorable, 20% No opinion (who are these people?!?)

Those who will 'give him a chance', much like the 20% or so who had no opinion on Obama. They'll probably become unfavorable.

Things are going to get ugly unless Trump does something fast

Gallup: 45% approve 55% disaprove of Trump http://www.gallup.com/home.aspx

Mein Gott, that's horrible!

[Devout Centrist]

Four days into his Presidency and now, more people disapprove of the job Trump is doing. I don't think that's ever happened before. Gallup now has 45% approving Trump, 46% disapproving.

[Devout Centrist]

Total collapse on Rasmussen today:

From 59-41 to 55-45.

Why are 100% of voters firmly in either camp?

[Devout Centrist]

Gallup shows a steep fall too....Trump is at 45/48 now.

[Devout Centrist]

PPP had a poll on Milwaukee County. Needless to say it is extremely hostile to Donald Trump and his loyal partner Governor Scott Walker.  I am excited at the prospect of seeing a poll from a state that our dicta... excuse me, President,  won.

It's worth noting that the poll in question has Trump actually doing better there than he did in the election.

Also, anyone have the new Gallup number?

Not yet, but I've been hearing it's not good.

Haha

On Jan. 26 they had 35% in favour of impeaching Trump, and 50% against it. I wonder what surge is to expect here.

40% favor impeaching him
48% oppose

Wow

[Devout Centrist]

Even I feel you adjust these numbers five points in favor of Trump, they're still crap

[Devout Centrist]

Yeah, but this isn't 1982 anymore. The country is more polarized today.

An unpopular president can unite a nation.

That didn't happen under Obama, so color me skeptical. Look, maybe you guys are right and 2018, 2020 and 2022 will all be big Democratic landslide years just because Trump is in the White House and demographics are changing, but all I'm saying is don't be too surprised if Rs manage to pick up 4 or 5 seats in the Senate in 2018 or if they keep the House. You'd think after what happened in 2014 and 2016 (when people like Wiz in Wis predicted Democratic landslides), Democrats wouldn't be making overconfident predictions anymore. Oh well...

If I was polled, I'd definitely say "disapprove" but I still wouldn't vote for a Democratic congressional candidate.

Even at his nadir, Obama never went below 38%, unlike extremely unpopular presidents like GWB and Carter.

Why are we still using RV's right now?

[Devout Centrist]

Why are we still using RV's right now?

Isn't that how it always goes? LV screens need to be used before an election, which isn't for a long time, so the best way to go right now is registered voters. Or, I'd think anyway.

Usually it's adults, at least this far out and on something as trivial as approval

I thought only head to head races got polled in RV this far out.

[Devout Centrist]

Also from PPP

Just three weeks into his administration, voters are already evenly divided on the issue of impeaching Trump with 46% in favor and 46% opposed. Support for impeaching Trump has crept up from 35% 2 weeks ago, to 40% last week, to its 46% standing this week. While Clinton voters initially only supported Trump's impeachment 65/14, after seeing him in office over the last few weeks that's gone up already to 83/6.

That's on Trump. If you never stop campaigning, don't be surprised when the other side decides every day is essentially election day.

If anyone has a chart on the support for impeachment of Richard Nixon beginning in November 1972 or earlier it would be welcome for a comparison.

Disapprove 56%

Gallup:
38/56

Damn

HOLY SH*T

[Devout Centrist]

Quite the opposite. If they win red territory it'd make waves, but if they lose those areas with the B-list candidates they have, who cares.

Didn't Trump only win that Georgia district by 1? That's hardly red territory. And neither is Montana, for that matter. The state has a Democratic Senator, a Democratic governor and elects Democrats to statewide offices on a regular basis. Now if there were an incumbent like Zinke running, it'd be very tough for them to win, but an open seat should be easily winnable for them - especially if Republicans are as unpopular as the polls say they are.

It's Gingrich's old seat. Highly conservative, but not populist in the slightest. If Ossoff loses to a Trumpist, that's a bad sign. But to a normal conservative? That's to be expected.

A lot of Americans are still getting bamboozled.

They're active particapants, though.
