And I ask this as recessions are a normal activity in a capitalistic society. It doesn't matter who is in charge. A persons temperament is vital to them being president. Acting like a child makes for a bad president.

Upon entering office Obama had a 69% approval rating, and a 59% when he left office. Here you are literally bragging about how great Trumps.....44% rating.

Trumps average approval rating? 38.5% Thats the worst average of any president in my lifetime.
And the stock market is at levels none of us have experienced in our lifetimes. That resonates more strongly and meaningfully than how much the Democrats hate Mr. Trump.

I did not vote for Trump but if the economy roars this year at a much faster pace because of the tax cuts which I believe it will most Americans won't vote out the GOP just because Trump is obnoxious and not likeable to a majority of people.

I have Hispanic friends who simply loathe Trump because of his immigration policies who are now ecstatic with their larger paychecks and are warming up to him and the GOP.

Money talks.
I did not vote for him either and loathe most of what comes out of his mouth, but I have to confess we just saw our first real pay raise in years with the tax cuts. Just got paid yesterday and between husband and I, we will have $900/month more. And my 401K is up 45%, no exaggeration. Eeehahhh!! Sorry Nancy, these aren’t crumbs to me!

900/month -- WOW.....I can't imagine.

That surpasses the best guess estimate from the federal govt.

I'd be sure that things are kosher there. That's an amazing amount.

Your 401K being up has nothing to do with the President...no more than it did with Obama....but if you need to thank Trump -- have at it.

Who cares.

Polls are inaccurate. They are also inaccurate when he has a 38 approval rating. My guess, some people who do not watch Russia news 24/7 like their 401k growth, lowering unemployment, few more bucks in their pay check, hope immigration laws are being enforced etc.

The Dems house of cards is falling.
The resistance is crumbling after the crumbs comments of the Dems failed leadership. The DNC leadership is beginning to understand that resistance is not a winning message to campaign on.

If he keeps unneeded drama off twitter his numbers will continue to rise. But who am I to question the guy who is single handedly dismantling the globalist/liberal agenda our country almost fell victim to?
