Trump approval ratings thread 1.5

[Devout Centrist]

Back to the mid 40s lol  (RCP AVG at 43.5% - with a couple outliers at 39% about to be edged out).

These threads are a joke, wishcasting Trump’s demise.

538's average, which uses a better technique, has Trump approval at 41.4/54.6.  But keep relying on RCP's simplistic average if it makes you feel better.

So simplistic that RCP got 2016 closer than the egotistical Nate’s 538. Right.

Nate calls the 2008 election (easiest to call) and he’s seen as a god. He ducks up the 2016 election it’s all deflection “well no he didn’t predict per se he was giving the odds and 30% chance isn’t 0 blah blah blah”.....You can’t have it both ways, if he gets praised when he gets it right, he bears responsibility when he does indeed get it wrong.

He called every state correctly in 2012, something you had trouble doing:

How does one even believe the nonsense Obama spouts now? What he's spouting now is almost identical to 2008, and I doubt many would disagree that his last 4 years have failed. So why should anyone even believe his nonsense now? His record is so poor, he can barely run on it.

Goodbye, Barack.

Whereas Mitt is exploiting that all over tonight. Obama knows he's in trouble, and is treading water here. He may be treading well, but his water wings are still on, but losing air.....

Irrelevant. Obama lost because his record is abysmal. End of, really. Romney now has the momentum because of that, and he's continued that theme, even if Obama speaks more smoothly.

Election is over. Mitt will be the next president.
