Trump rating spread increasing quite a bit in the last couple of days...as I predicted likely.

It was Tax returns first (that is, people filing their taxes) and now it's a combo.

It's up to an 11.2% spread whereas even a week ago it was 10.4 and was hanging around there for a while.

Put another way, among all adult Americans, a one point swing in this spread represents about 2.4 MILLION Americans that headed into the disapproval column. I predict it will continue to slowly increase and 11-12% spread will be the new normal.

This makes him continue to have the lowest ratings in recent history...along with historians placing him DEAD LAST...#45 out of #45.

That takes some doing being as a guy like GW is a number of positions ahead of Don.

All polls are accurate.
There are 247M adults in America. 130M of them voted for a Presidential candidate.
Some polls don't make an effort to determine if the respondent is registered to vote or even eligible.
But if those polls make you feel better, then hang on to them.

Looks like folks are paying attention to the Mueller report. The lowest of any president during this time period!
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has taken a hit since the redacted Mueller report was released to the public on Thursday morning. According to a new poll by Reuters/Ipsos, Trump’s approval rating now stands at 37 percent, a 2019 low.

Default What makes Trump a racist?

Every day, we hear lefties claiming that Trump is a racist. So what makes him racist exactly? Is it because African Americans now have the lowest unemployment rate in history? Is it because manufacturing is booming, which has traditionally raised standards of living for African American communities like the one I live near? Is it because he is working to raise the income earning potential of African Americans by securing the border and working to deter illegal immigration? Are jobs and livable wages racist?

Can someone explain this to me in a sensible way, instead of just spewing hate and claiming he's a white supremacist, white nationalist, ect without presenting any real evidence?

1. His dad was a KKK member or sympathizer and was charged with racist policies in his Real Estate

2. Donald himself (or his companies) were also charged in the same way.
Read just a bit:
https://www.vox.com/2016/7/25/122708...racism-history
“When Donald and Ivana came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor,”
"I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.” "

3. He hangs around with Bannon, Miller and many other known people with racist and eugenics beliefs.

4. Trump played a big role in pushing false rumors that Obama — the country’s first black president — was not born in the US


I mean - I could go on, but if you don't get the idea from what you have seen and heard so far, you aren't going to have an "aha" moment.

That he wants to enforce the border security. The Democrats and Media have to claim Racism as they want Amnesty which really means Open Borders to create more Democrat voters.

Because its much harder to prove that he isn't. All of the well known and respected minority republican politicians and leaders are also making it clear that he is a racist by their obvious absence from his campaign and administration. Even Herman Cain declined Trump's offer. He said it was about the money but we know Cain doesn't need the money at this stage in the game.
