His supporters may still be in the orgasmic stage, but the rest of America has problems with him. Does Trump care? Probably not. Will he do anything at all to bring Americans together? I doubt it. And again, his followers couldn't care less.
So let me get this straight, barack obama took office with a 75% approval rating??? He barely won the presidency and lost the white vote badly in both elections but he entered the presidency with a 75% approval rating? Lol. Polling is absolutely corrupt in this country, the fiasco predicting the hillary victory proved that.

There you go confusing libs with facts again.

Libs are vaccinated against facts at an early age. Logic and reasoning have never taken root in their minds.

Well, there's his New Years' greeting:

Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don't know what to do. Love!

What a guy.

A regular Abraham Lincoln.

To paraphrase your president Obama, that great example of bringing people together: Elections have consequences and you can ride in the back of the bus.
This is a Republican site and this is what they thought of Trump's New Year's tweet:

This petty little tyrant makes nice with a Russian strongman, but can’t seem to offer a crumb of civility or grace to his own countrymen.

Donald Trump's New Year Greeting is Pure Trump Awfulness | RedState

Trump actually went on a "gloating in your face tour" after the election where he continued to mock and attack half the country. No other president has ever done that. It's almost starting to look like Trump wants to incite civil war.

who trust polls anymore?.....Trump put a dagger to the heart to all the MSM and their polls.

Of course if you are going to do the polls in New York City and Los Angeles Trump is not in demand.....but for the rest of the red country, Trump has high ratings.

The rest of the country? Trump lost more than just California and New York. He only received 8% of the vote in Seattle. And after the last two months of Trump's behavior, he's probably lost ground here.

Yeah, that's your opinion.

My opinion says Trump has probably gained ground everywhere after the last two months of liberal behavior, and their bellyaching . It's an opinion as valid as yours.......

Trump had more votes than cankles, where it counts. California, and King county don't decide the election on their own. And that my friend is NOT an opinion, that's one of those facts libs dread so much.

It doesnt matter what the rigged polls said, it doesnt matter what the vote might have been on Nov 7th, Nov 9th, yesterday, today or tomorrow. The election was held on Nov 8, 2016.......

Trump won.

Get over it already.

Cankles? What is the opinion of Mike Pence's wife? Are all candidates to be measured by their weight? Or ankle ratio? Does this apply only to women? Yes, Trump lost the popular vote by 3 million votes and won by a combined total of 75,000 votes in three states, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. He promptly followed that by going on a tour where he gloated and mocked half the country. No president has ever done that in history. He then follows up by mocking half the country in something as typically innocuous as a News Years tweet. That is not a winning formula and it is not surprising that he has the lowest approval rating of a new president in the last 25 years.

These are the same people that projected a 99% chance hillary would win and allowed Hillary to pick who was polled?

If I were you I'd be frantically trying to find the delete post button ROTFLMAO!!

I have no intention of getting over it.

I intend to do whatever I can to oppose him, and to encourage others to oppose him.

Take your own advice, and get over it.
