INCREDIBLE - With 90 Percent of Media Against President Trump - He Still Polls Higher Than Obama.

Life long dem 40 + years. Don’t like Trump as a person but respect what he is trying to do for our country. Poll or no poll the man is doing a damn good job for someone with no political experience. If Trump continues he could go down as great president. As a liberal it makes me cringe to see him succeed but as a American I can’t help but be happy to see our country on top again.

We need more of that attitude. When the president succeeds we all do.

DITTO!! I keep asking liberals I know if they want the country to fail. Some, say yes, they would rather have the country completely fail than to have Trump succeed, and they will give him no credit what-so-ever. When Obummer was in there, I didn't agree with what he did most of the time, but if he did something good for America, I supported it.

With that kind of attitude, if they get into control some day, we are all doomed.

This is the truth. Even the pretty hard core liberals I work with are recognizing he's doing a lot of good for the country. Their problem with him has turned to personality, but I wouldn't be that surprised if they started answering 'slightly approve' to the approval question. North Korea has opened a lot of eyes.

a reply to: carewemust>>>> I said before that if Trump had the medi love fest Obama had, with it going to bat for him, helping him duck serious questions and never making him look bad, Trump would be polling 15 points higher AND his cabinet would be completely intact as it was fro day one. Instead he has the MSM out to get him AND the deep staters and both parties that answer to them. Trump as a certain gritty STFU and leave me do my thing attitude that does resonate with many voters. From both parties.

The MSM has turned into Chicken Little , and the Only Sky Falling around here is the One Over their Ass Hat Heads.......Tell a Lie Long Enough , and it is Still a Lie to People who are Aware of what a Truth is .

You all say this: "even the liberals I speak to .." or "even the liberals I work with say ..."

No liberal that I have met or spoken to has any tolerance for Trump at all.

On the night Trump was first elected McConnell said that they would cooperate with absolutely nothing, and never did. "Chuck and Nancy" have gone to the White House to talk about doing things in both their interest. Obama never had that once.

Trump has refused to have a press conference in over a year, longest a president has gone without one, is the snowflake in need of fawning attention? Won't go to London. Won't do the Kennedy Center Honors, or throw out a first pitch. Seems like the snowflake needs "fawning media attention" to even bother to show up.

Well it's pretty easy to explain both numbers: the US has an absurdly high percentage of racist white people. White people are the majority, and the majority of white people are racist. Pretty easy explanation. I live in a rural area, and damn near everybody I know here hated Obama simply because he was black, and they love Trump simply because they know he's a racist moron like them.
Signed,
A white person.

Actually, I just looked it up. Rasmussen has Trump at 47 percent approval, and 52 percent disapproval. Your numbers are wrong.

a reply to: Maroboduus

I've never seen a higher concentration of delusional, uninformed, ignorant, or willfully stupid people than what I see here on ATS over the past year. It's disgusting. Reading you guys fawning over Trump, making excuses for everything he does, blatantly fudging facts and statistics or outright lying about them, etc etc, is legitimately disgusting.
It's the media's fault that Trump has had such a ridiculous turnover in his cabinet, huh? Please explain to me how the media forced all of those people to resign in disgust and/or be fired by an egomaniacal, unqualified disaster of a president.
Trump may go down as a great president... lol. You can't possibly be serious.

I especially enjoy the numerous proclamations over the past year about how the Democratic Party is completely dead, considering that even conservative republican pollsters have recently said that the Republicans are probably going to get slaughtered in the next midterms.

This place, which used to be enjoyable and entertaining, has become a legitimately disgusting and depressing waste of time. It's basically a gathering of willfully ignorant MAGA enthusiasts. I'm not sure what the point is of going to a conspiracy website and turning it into a Republican stronghold. It's completely unnecessary and pointless and completely out of line with what ATS is supposed to be.

I never believed the accuracy of the polls in the run up to the election. Either the MSM were polling inside echo chambers for Hillary or they flat out made the numbers up. Either way they were dead wrong.

Whenever I see poll numbers now I wonder the same thing. I do know this, however. Nearly everyone I know hates the democratic establishment. This is coming from a lot of my liberal friends, too. I mean they absolutely HATE the Washington democrats.

They haven't come right out and said they are going to vote for Trump in 2020 but they also haven't said they aren't.

First off, it was republicans who declared damn the country, Obama must fail.
Mitch McConnell publicly announced it was his number one mission.
Rush Limbaugh made long rambling speeches about how it was OK to wish for American Failure whilst Pres. Obama was in office.

Just sayin, "projection" is a real thing. The GOP need to work on originality.

SECONDLY...HOW? How has this President succeeded in any way?

Democrats have been winning in Districts that Trump carried by 20+ percentage points.

What does that tell you about how real people feel about Trump?

The GOP might think it couldn't get worse, but Trumps trade war with China is already costing US farmers 20-30% of their annual income, chickens, pork, soybeans etc.

Trump won by 70K votes spread out over 3 states and lost the popular vote by 2 Million plus votes? And THAT was the best approval rating he has ever had (when he got elected).

It's one thing to bang porn stars, it's another to screw over rural American farmers.

Good luck in the coming elections.

Can you imagine the panic in the media realizing their attempts to influence the people are falling flat?

As long as leftists stay upset, then I know Trump is succeeding.

Right, cuz the only thing Trump has shown competence in is behaving like an internet troll.

Good luck with that.

a reply to: soberbacchus

You should do a bit more research on when the actual trade wars with China began. Hint: looooooong before Trump ever showed up in office.

Secondly, please cite the sources that show US farmers have already lost 20-30% of their annual income, which ironically, cannot be tabulated or calculated until the end of a calendar year. But hey...go ahead and make up stats. On another note I'm sure you already know the world's largest pork producer located in the US is owned by....China. You think China is going to shut down Smithfield Farms and lose their $5BN investment over a long overdue tariff increase? Are you aware of what the tariff disparity between what we import from China versus what China imports from the US? Go research the different tariff rates over the past decade and then tell me exactly how it's unfair to China.

"Screw over rural American farmers"? Seriously...did you just dial into the big picture here? The death of the rural American farmer occurred more than 20 years ago.

Go spin your BS to your echo chamber.

No luck needed mate. Trump will be your president again in 2020. The week before the election I remember seeing this:



Well we know how that statistic proved out....

Yeah don't hedge your bets on this. It changes daily and Obama is, according to your own link, consistently more popular across the board then Trump
