Majority wish Obama were president, as Trump labeled 'mentally unstable
AOL Poll : September 29, 2017
A majority of Americans wish former President Barack Obama was still in the White House and in charge of the nation according to a new poll.
A new survey from Public Policy Polling found that 52 percent of respondents wish Obama were in the midst of his third term. By comparison, only 41 percent prefer having President Donald Trump over Obama.
But it's not uncommon for a former president to see his popularity jump after he leaves office.
A 2009 Gallup poll showed that only 35 percent of people liked former President George W. Bush, but after he'd left office and the news that he had taken up painting emerged, his approval rating has jumped up to 59 percent.
Unfortunately for the current president, the poll included many other negative ratings. The survey found 54 percent of people claim Trump is dishonest, 47 percent say he's mentally unstable and 48 percent call for his impeachment.
Former President Obama has made only a handful of forays into the political conversation, but has joined his fellow ex-presidents to call for relief after Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria battered parts of the United States.
He's also continued to occasionally speak to the press on her personal life, recently admitting that he cried while dropping his daughter Malia Obama off at Harvard University this year.
Obama even found some time to hang out at The Presidents Cup golf tournament with former president’s Bush and Bill Clinton.
Yawn.....well Obamaś busy getting rich, hanging out with the elites and vacationing all over the world. You can follow his whereabouts in the Enquire.
Trump's term will be up in 2020. Play some chess or something to pass your time. I have made it through several presidents I didn't like.
Trump says a lot of things we are all thinking then he goes and ruins it by continuing to talk.
He could easily turn his approval numbers around if he knew when to shut up.
Puerto Rico for example: Many of agree that PR drove itself into bankruptcy then wanted complete rebuilding. Why throw money away? They've shown then cannot run a local government.
Trump basically said this then went AND --- then went on to look like an idiot tossing paper towels and WAY WAY over pronouncing the pwwwweeeeuuuuurrrtoooo riiiiccoo.
He could have stopped and many people would have gotten his point, instead he acted the fool and lost almost everyone.

Don't you just love to watch the Trumpees when some poll comes out ? If it is something negative about Trump, it is FAKE !! If it is positive about Trump, they act as if the word of God has come down from the Heavens.

From an organization called YAHOO ??????
almost as trustworthy as the NYTs.
Creative headline to support a political agenda. nothing to see here unless propaganda is someone's favorite news source used as escapism in place of the comic pages.
I'd absolutely love to trade Trump for someone else, but it certainly would not be Obama. That would be a lateral move at best. I want an improvement, and that shouldn't be very hard.
