true. If Obama and his policies were as loved as the approval ratings said, Trump would not have come close to winning and the Democrats would not have lost a record amount of seats
polls are fine and all but they are not producing results for the Dem Party in the real world
The Democrats gained seats in both houses of congress this past election, as well as winning the popular presidential vote by a large margin. But no matter how low Trump's approval rating becomes, he's counting on establishing a dictatorship that will care nothing about approval from the peasants.
Actually, outside the alt right's alternative reality bubble, Trump is not that well liked. It's a shocker, I know.
Only 27% of eligible voters voted for Trump. The majority of people, both here and abroad, reject Trump. His approval rating, outside the alternative facts of Fox and Breitbart, is only declining.
And that's not surprising given that he's a well-known and admitted fraud and liar who governs by tweeting like a spoiled child, alienates long term allies and appoints his billionaire cronies to his cabinet. He got where he is by playing to the hate, fear, ignorance and bigotry of the double digit IQ set. That isn't sustainable. You actually have to possess some knowledge pertinent to governing and a modicum of know-how in dealing with other people. Trump ain't got those things.
By your own math only 28% of eligible voters voted for Clinton. So what? All that shows is 40% of eligible voters simply did not vote.
All the leftists have to work with is fake news, misleading information, obstruction, riots, violent intimidation and insulting Trump voters. The leftists are desperate and confused. They attack free speech when it does not align with their views. They attack their own leftists when they say anything that is not 100% against Trump. They call Trump a fascist, but they are the ones acting like fascists. Most Americans don't support people who are out of control and burn things down and destroy property for no reason.
The good thing news is the leftists are bad at trying to influence things. They failed during the election and they are failing now. The numbers that count? The economy is spiking upwards. Consumer and business confidence have turned dramatically up since Trump won. After two years of a flat stock market it has sky rocketed since election day. The stock market finally broke 20,000 (more than half of all Americans own stocks). For the first time since the 2008 meltdown an equal amount of Americans think things are headed in the right direction the highest in 12 years. It has shot up 16% since the first of the year. During the entire Obama presidency by margins of more than 2-1 people felt the country was in the wrong direction.
Time to put down the protest signs and all the negativity. Nobody likes a sore loser.
Wow! I guess the OP is just giving us more alternative facts. Most Americans despise and revile Trump. This is not only the case in the USA as DJT is the most hated man in the world. He has finally reached #1.
Personally I think if there were an election today, Trump would lose. People who were ambivalent before would rush to vote.
40% would support impeaching Trump and it's only been two weeks.
And 41% would support impeaching Hillary.... and she's not even President.
