Trump has an approval rating and he isn't even President.

Trash poll with absolutely zero sense.

It's not a Presidency approval poll.

So nothing. Got it.

They don't need to prove anything or make any reasonable point. The motive of the left is to delegitimize the Trump presidency. Politics has turned into nothing but a bitter, hard partisan food fight.

Most of these people aren't guided by a political philosophy. They are guided by nothing but party affiliation.

[Chris]

Why is there an assumption high approval is important? It's like the assumption Congress should cooperate. The government was designed to be contentious.

[Don]

It appears that the higher the approval rating was before the inauguration translated into who did the most damage to the country after taking office. Lets hope that trend holds with Trumps low approval rating before taking office. :shocked:

[AZ Jim]

All it says is, how the public see the President elect before he has the power of the office. They all were judged by the same standard. You Trumpies try too hard to defend your orange god!

But the job of the President (and Congress) ought to be to do the right things regardless how unpopular.

Not a Trumpy. Though sometimes I'm a grumpy.

Obama had his ass kissed by the media thats how he got his rating,.
When bush and clinton became president Democrats werent the raging assholes they are today.

Those numbers mean nothing and he still will be President

He's doing that all by himself. Many Republicans don't like him.

Many people pretend to not be on-partisan.

These polls have been so accurate recently...

And the leftists don't think they're the ones who are divisive. Thanks for pointing out statistics which make it so obvious.

I've never seen the supporters of the losing side act so irrational and childish. I've never seen it because no one has ever reacted like this before.

Where's the Hillary Clinton approval rating and the DNC & RNC rating? And the National Media's rating?

[AZ Jim]

Where's the Hillary Clinton approval rating and the DNC & RNC rating? And the National Media's rating?Pay attention and don't try so hard, we know you are here. This poll was for PRESIDENT ELECTS only!

Too low to calculate.

[Captain Obvious]

Who cares.

Seriously, why is this relevant?

[Safety]

It means the same as a recent thread about Trump saying Hillary is guilty as hell, but nobody is trashing that one. I mean, I know why that is, but it doesn't have to be so obvious.

[Chris]

:Doh!:

[Captain Obvious]

This is just another maxi pad for the bedshitting lest to menstruate in.

Who cares what his approval rating is? Presidents aren't popularity contests (although junkhead lefties might believe that).

If this president has the lowest approval rating ever, that should mean that he did his job.

But you realize that Trump ran the biggest popularity campaign that ever existed, right?

Is that the new meme for the left this week?

Either way, I dont really care. Trump lost the popular vote by 3m, he's not that popular.

Greg Lloyd, a retired LB for the Steelers used to wear a tshirt that said "I wasn't hired for my pleasant disposition"

:Doh!:Now there is a real contribution to the thread. Thanks a million Chris for your thoughtful post.

I'm not sure about it being a meme, I was just responding to your post. But honestly, starting with the first response in this thread, do you not see the difference in a negative Trump thread and one that isn't about Trump? I was not singling you out either.

I get your point but Rodham could still, and maybe even likely, prosecuted.

That could at least turn into a discussion.

IMO

[Captain Obvious]

be prosecuted...

There you go with this "we" stuff again. Do you fancy yourself the leader of the liberals here or something?

Yes. By Obama-ites

Obama and Clinton were great, smooth liars, history proves that. Low information voters looking for a Santa Claus are easy to please.

Ah, let's allow him to be the liberal leader, he's ten years older than I am, and I'm old! :laugh:

Even Bill Clinton's biggest supporters were in awe of his ability to lie and be so convincing even when everyone knew it was a lie.

Look! Most Americans did NOT vote for and do not trust Donald Trump! Call that a liberal opinion if you want but you CANNOT debate the fact!

[AZ Jim]

But the job of the President (and Congress) ought to be to do the right things regardless how unpopular.

Not a Trumpy. Though sometimes I'm a grumpy.You are also not a voter so I see you in these discussions as by and large a simple outsider.

[resister]

Look! Most Americans did NOT vote for and do not trust Donald Trump! Call that a liberal opinion if you want but you CANNOT debate the fact!Also a fact, he won and is your President, like it or not, just like Obama was for me and I never went into the street with a "not my president" sign.

[resister]

Most states voted for Trump. Most patriotic Americans believe in the Constitution and the EC . The rest of you are losers who cannot accept that Trump won fair and square. Period!

Yep, and likely a very unpopular one.

States don't vote. People vote. GOP, the party of the wide open spaces, barren desert and uninhabited wastelands.

Only in America!
