Gallup, eh? Didn't they say Hillary Clinton would beat President Trump. One of these days you'll figure out these polls are all hack jobs.

Read em and weep.

50-49%, so basically a tie?


Nice try, but thanks for playin.

again, that's cherry picking rasmussen.


RCP average:


trump feb 11, 2019 42.4 approve / 54.2 disapprove rating: -11.8%


obama feb 09, 2011 49.9 approve / 44.1 disapprove rating: +5.8%



obama is 17.6 points ahead of trump at their respective times in office.

The Midwest state with the highest Trump approval is SD at +6%. Heck, even my own state of Missouri, which carried Trump by over 18 percentage points, is now at -2 for Trump.

What makes it "legit"?
Inquiring minds want to know.

At this point, I don't think anyone learned anything from 2016, on either side. Polls have become another tool used to get a predetermined result.

And then there are those that do understand the truth.

No one takes Rasmussen seriously. Before the midterms Rasmussen was the only poll that had Republicans with a one point advantage, other polls ended up being far closer to the actual vote which was 8.6%, that's nearly a 10 point error.

Default Trump approval now negative in Utah, Texas, Missouri, Ohio, Florida, Georgia, NC ...

... And a number of other states he won in 2016.

In my own state of Missouri, for example, he won by 18.5% in 2016. He is now at -2%.

Even in Utah he is at -6%! Utah! And in solid-red Nebraska he is dead even.

Be sure to use the slider at the bottom of the map to see the trend:

No surprise as many dupes realized that they were...wait for it...duped. Trump stole ran on Bernie's policies but Bernie was real while Trump was running a con game.
