Actually thrRight is a lot worse. And their fake news had a huge role in the election-- as did the one sided email leaks...

i think the right and the left are both living in alternate realities. it seems every fact can be spun left or right depending on the agenda when in reality the truth is somewhere in the middle. take the unemployment rate for example, the left will say its lower the right will say its higher, in reality when all things are taken into consideration its probably somewhere in between.
they say life imitates art well sometimes i feel like were living in 1984.

Actually, it WAS "fake news" that did her in.
It all started with the 'Benghazi was the result of some obscure video on the internet' lie.
You know, the "fake news" the administration, and the State Dept conspired to LIE to us about, assuming we are stupid, gullible sheep that hung on to their every word for comfort and truth.
That one, is the "fake news" story that made my mind up about her. WAY before she even officially announced she was running.
What about the majority of us in the middle, as we are a huge part of the population and not the whacko extremist we are being made out to be by people like the Left shills who are here? The left and right extremist in power are not as bad as Drug gangs and Jihadist they allow in our country are they? Worse for bringing this on us. I suspect you all will realize as the middle and right see it.
It serves no good purpose to question the accuracy of their world view

It should raise alarm bells for everyone. America is heading down the same path that the Islamic world did- a short span of greatness and then descent into Marxist hell.

So just wondering... to get to a 50% approval rating, with only 9 percent of Republicans, does that mean independants and Democrats have his approval rating somewhere above 80%? I find this hard to believe if some of the deplorables are Democrat and independent

Rachel who? And is she actually expecting reasonable people to believe a liberal poll? Sorry, but that ship sailed and liberal polls have proven themselves to be worthless...just like the $1.8 billion Hillary and DNC spent on a lost election.
It is a reasonable poll (see the poll company information in the OP).
Also, Rachel Maddow is a well known household name in the US, whether you like her or not.
The amount Hilllary Clinton spent on the election is off topic, but since you mentioned... Trump spent quite a sum and it appears he traded cabinet positions to not spend more. The Art of the Deal, you know?

I've noticed there is a sliding scale of Trump supporters that seems to correlate level of support and intelligence (no, it's not scientific, it's my own observations in the matter). There are some Trump supporters who are very smart. They were also not what I'd call Trumptards or Cultists. They weren't fervent supporters, and hardly any of them liked Trump. They voted for him for strategic/tactical (politically speaking) reasons, and are pragmatists. Funny enough, they are also well educated, either college or technical trades, and are usually independent voters. But as you go down the scale, the more a person supports the Chump, the more they adore him or actually believe his crap, the the less they think, the more ignorant they are. Kinda like a religion.
Are you really going to use the "I know you are but what am I" approach?
Did you read the OP? That has nothing to do with it.
And I asked for a link to that proof.
