New Monmouth poll has Trump's approval at 45%

48% disapproval, so the gap is only 3.

And, Trump's RCP's approval average is now 43.3%

I know some here don't like the polls, but I just get a kick out of seeing the media's narrative go straight down the toilet.

Comey has been such an utter FAIL.

But, rest assured, putz John Brennan will still likely tweet again about Trump's "35% approval."

I, for one, am not buying that poll or any other polls. More and more people are supporting President Trump.

Watch the rally from Saturday night. Same crap they told us before the election. Trump was speaking to overflowing, enthusiastic, rallies. Crooked Hillary had a dozen or so insane Liberals to speak to when she stumbled in.

Always add 10% (at minimum) to the President’s approval rating polls.

They’ve spent how much time and resources to knock him down, and they get this for their trouble?

Now they know what it was like for poor Jeb.

I’m looking forward to Trump’s tweet when Brennan is arrested for treason.

I doubt the polls are real. Trump hasn’t really lost the people who voted for him and he’s probably gained a good number of Never Trumper types and just those who see that things aren’t the disaster they were assured it would be. Unlike other Presidents he never got a post inauguration bounce (which means there were a lot of people who weren’t willing to give him a chance). I suspect his “bounce” will be more like a sustained uptick over the course of his Presidency.

“I know some here don’t like the polls”


The nationwide polls are a pretty accurate reflection of the popular vote. Realclearpolitics had Hillary with a 3.3% vote lead average just before the elections.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton_vs_johnson_vs_stein-5952.html
She beat Trump by 2.1% in the popular vote.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2016
If Trump’s poll numbers continue at these levels, he will probably lose the popular vote again in 2020. Obama had a 0.7%* net spread going into the 2012 election. He beat Romney by 3.9% in the popular vote.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general_election_romney_vs_obama-1171.html

* That net spread was why Romney thought he had a good chance of winning. It turns out he wasn’t close either in popular or electoral votes.

And they all stumped in only after she promised them all free drinks. 8>)

"I know some here don't like the polls, but I just get a kick out of seeing the media's narrative go straight down the toilet."

I agree.

Also, if patriots want to get rid of politically correct polls, we need to work with state lawmakers to support Pres. Trump in leading the states to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments (17A).

And until the states wake up and repeal 17A, as evidenced by concerns about the integrity of the outcome of Alabama's and Pennsylvania's special elections, patriot candidates need to win elections by a large enough margin to compensate for possible deep state ballot box fraud, associated MSM scare tactics, and interference from people like Soros.

This is one of those moments.

This is actually good news, he’ll get re-elected with anything in the 40s.

The actual candidate vs. the “to be nominated” candidate is always at a disadvantage. Trump is no exception.

However, saying this helps risk complacency.

The more important statistic is what is his approval rating from people who are likely to vote in 2020? Wanna bet it is way over 50%?

The statistic they report is from all people including folks who never vote.
