Where would President Hillary Clinton's Approval Rating be right now?

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Where do you guys think it would stand?

[Technocracy Timmy]

Her approvals would probably range between 46-51% right now since the Right and Berniebro Left would be attacking her constantly.

She would inevitably prevail over both just like how she won the popular vote over both of these populist demogogues last year.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

About where Trump is.

[Mr. Smith]

52%

She always has a way of getting excellent ratings when actually in a job. Wouldn't surprise me if she even got into the Mid 50's and stayed there with only the midterm noise and 2020 showing otherwise (at which point she gets taken out Bush Sr style).

[JGibson]

Better than Trump for sure.

I'd say around 44%-48% job approval.

[Rookie Yinzer]

45 Approve/51 Disapprove

[Maxwell]

29%.

She would have no major accomplishments to her name whatsoever, constant investigations into her administration, stalled nominations for countless cabinet and judicial positions. It would be a mess, to say the least.

A Hillary win could have resulted in a 50-50 Senate, depending on what this hypothetical win is based on and how wide her margins are in certain states. There is certainly an argument that with a slightly bigger national PV win, Kander and McGinty wouldn't have lost. All Kander really needed was for her to not totally implode there, and McGinty just needed Clinton to carry PA even semi-comfortably.

But she would still be obstructed at every turn, and thus no accomplishments. Investigations in the House would have been plentiful as well. I don't think she would have been in as bad of a place as Trump, but she would still be faring bad historically. Maybe low-mid 40s, with only further to go by 2018.

[NewYorkExpress]

Almost certainly lower than Trump's is now...maybe around 25%, because in addition to Republicans denying her legitimacy, Bernie-bros would as well.

Her disapprovals would likely be slightly higher.

Bill on the hand, would have much higher approval ratings than Melania Trump does now.

[politics_king]

No one knows, because we don't know what policies she would've pushed and she would've handled Russia afterward, she seemed to be picking a fight with them and wanting to throw-down. The Bernie-wing didn't trust her and if she gave in a little bit they would turn on her. The GOP dislike her so much and I'm sure they would be investigating her e-mails still, etc. I would say low 40's would be her approval rating. When pundits say we had two of the worst choices in United States political history, they were right.

[Inmate Trump]

There is just no truly conceivable way that Hillary's approval would be in the 20s or even anywhere close to that.

[HAnnA MArin County]

There is just no truly conceivable way that Hillary's approval would be in the 20s or even anywhere close to that.

Her emails, though.

[Koharu]

There is just no truly conceivable way that Hillary's approval would be in the 20s or even anywhere close to that.

Low 40s would be my guess. A bit better than Trump but not much. Most of it would be due to Congress blocking het at every turn, bringing up ridiculous charges, and running their mouths on cable about how horrible she is (in other words, how dare she be a woman outside the stereotypical role). There would also be a few minor moments of blunt honesty getting constant replay for weeks on the news.

Hillary in the mid 20s seems impossible. Not even Bush sank that low, until a recession hit.

[pbrower2a]

Not quite as high as Obama, but much better than Trump. It's hard to imagine her being anywhere near as incompetent or offensive as Trump.

I'm guessing that Obama would be taking lots of trips to China to kiss up to the Chinese leadership on North Korea, and that would be more effective.

The Hard Right would attack her for any real or imagined failure or affront.  But if she got an effective majority in the Senate, she might get some legislation passed.

[BlueSwan]

Right now she would be doing pretty well. I'll say around 50%.

What I think people are forgotting that if Hillary wins, what does the GOP do? This would not be like in 2012 where they did a bit of soul searching, concluded that would have to appeal more to latinos and then proceed to act as if nothing happened.

This would be far more serious. They would have JUST handed over the title of party standardbearer to Donald f**king Trump. The guy they knew couldn't win and didn't win. This time around they would have to do some serious soul searching and the entire GOP establishment would be highly motivated to ensure that something like that would NEVER happen again. This is not just the presidency on the line, it is also their seats and the survival of the entire party.

People tend to forget how small differences like that (after all Hillary did win the popular vote comprehensively) can completely change the narrative.

After a Clinton win, the GOP would be licking their wounds. Would probably quickly confirm Garland, to avoid a more liberal candidate. I'm not suggesting that they would go easy on Clinton, but going hard against her would not be their first priority like it was with Obama. Cleaning up in their own ranks would.

You mean like Trump? Even he's not in the 20's.

It would take a significant economic downturn (like the 08 financial crisis, not a normal recession) or an impeachment level event to bring a president down into the 20's these days.

[ProgressiveCanadian]

39%

[MAINEiac4434]

46%

[Kamala]

107%

[Horus]

Maybe 42% if she's lucky.

[Lechasseur]

Hillary would probably be even more unpopular than Trump, she'd probably be in the low 30s (30-33% approval rating)

[Pyro]

Mid-30s

[Dr. MB]

35–43%.
