All of my team supports me, and most others don't. So I'm a winner.
Yes, my standard applied to Obama too.
Ok. Then you should have no problem comparing Obama's approval rating over his first 4 years vs Trump. After doing so, let us know what you learned. Or drown your sorrows in ignorance, whatever gets you through the TDS.
One thing that should be obvious if you bother to look though... Obama started out with the media in his back pocket and an extremely high approval rating, which plummeted and never recovered. Trump started out in the pits, with the media working tirelessly to destroy him. Despite the media blitz and all the negativity and outright hatred from the left, Trump has risen above it all and proven himself to be a very capable leader. Not perfect, but capable. And if you are expecting perfection, you are going to be waiting a lifetime, cause it ain't happening with our ultra polarized political environment. The media does owe him an apology though, because they literally claimed he was the second coming of Hitler.
Even the federal reserve was working tirelessly to prop up Obama with QE infinity and ultra low interest rates, while they raised interest rates 3 times in one year to hamper the booming QE free Trump economy. Then came the Chinese virus to destroy everything, and the left was overwhelmed with glee at the tanking stock market. Yes, the left will pay for that when Trump wins by a landslide in 2020.
The first six weeks or more he did nothing but lie. This is a well documented fact.
The Big Lie.
That's two false premises in one sentence. Very Trumpian.
Hopefully the death rate will turn out to be low, it's early days yet. But it does no good to lie about it now. People are sick and tired of the lies coming from the Trump propaganda machine. He is, after all, the one to claim "there are only fifteen people sick, and all recovering" when in fact there were over sixty at the time and the number growing by the hour. he's the one to tell us to keep going to work, even if we are sick (what a knucklehead).
The man lies constantly, even over life and death issues and also even over unimportant things he has no good reason to lie about and nothing to gain from it. He can't stop himself.
I certainly don't want to catch COVID-19, nor does anyone else I know, and we will all follow the CDC and WHO guidelines and the best suggestions from the experts and hopefully pull through this together.
As for Trump? ... the best thing he can do for us right now is stay out of the way. Hopefully now he will do just that.
Don't forget Trump was the first to call it a hoax and then later say “I’ve felt that it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.”"
Is this the poll in which they polled 500 people? If it is, you can toss it.

Wait a month. We are still on the relatively flat end of the hockey stick. When Death starts seriously making his rounds and there aren't enough ventilators, let's see if people still rally around the Liar in Chief.
