well today his press conference gave him a chance to pander to his sub 40% support.

Trump is stuck in the past, he is delusional and appears to believe that if he says it enough times if will become truth.

As a nation we need to reject Trump and his words.

I'm sure you know the reason for that....The Pew poll is non partisan, while Rasmussen leans heavily to the right....A biased poll is worse than no poll at all.

As sad and pathetic as that may sound, you are absolutely correct.

Look at RCP averages. The race was very close in the final weeks. Only a moron would suggest otherwise.

Gallup's poll came in at 40%, confirming the Pew result. Rasmussen's 55% is an outlier.

Again why do you think we care? Approval ratings don't create results in the real world. Libs kept saying over And over that Obama's approval rating meant Hillary would be elected since she was carrying in his legacy. And we'll...

They certainly can.

Some members of his party in Congress will turn on him if he becomes more unpopular (especially below 30%) since they will start looking out for their own behind (particularly around midterms).

When that starts happening, a President's ability to push forward an agenda becomes limited.
