      Which is still a big deal.

      Like abhorrent it’s that high. But I remember people swearing 40% was the floor and due to the cult it could never go lower.

        The historical benchmark I use is this: Nixon was at 31% when he resigned. I think GWB also hit a similar number, but he never was facing articles of impeachment.

          I’m seeing 24. I mean Trumps last presidency he left at 34 percent so he’s still up from before sadly.

        Cults break down, a good example is something like Sinnanon where up until the authoritarian tendencies kicked in it managed to maintain a pretty decent size. Then they went full authoritarian and the cult started to bleed numbers.

        Personally my bet is that Trump can go as low as 20 percent approval, though it’ll require some specialized circumstances or shit just getting worse all around.

        Republican congressthings clearly have the same data on their internal polls, which is why they felt it safe to kill the dumpster-fire bill Trump tried to ram through.

    Forty percent of voters have a favorable opinion of President Trump, while 53 percent have an unfavorable opinion of him, and 4 percent haven’t heard enough about him.

    WHO are these people that haven’t heard enough about him? And WHY isn’t there “I have heard way too much about him” option in the poll?

    And yet somehow the Republicans will win a sketchy number of seats at the midterms and nothing will ever come of it.

    But his disapproval rating is thru the roof! No, really he tossed the rating up there when he saw it. Yeah, it doesn’t weight that much. Like a kid could through it higher.

    “I’m the most bigly popular King! Frankly, many people are saying I’m the greatest man who ever lived. And my parade will have YUGE ratings! Better than Barack Hussein’s boring, very low energy speeches! Many men, many big tough men have said to me, with literal tears, they say ‘Sir, Sir, please spend more of our money on bigly parades and tax cuts for billionaires, who are just born better than we are!’ No one honors Trump like Trump, believe me.”
