This week’s White House Report Card finds President Trump under fire from some in his own party over his national emergency declaration to build the wall but a step ahead of the crowd of Democrats hoping to unseat him in the 2020 election. Democratic pollster John Zogby, who weekly grades the president along with conservative analyst Jed Babbin, said that while Trump continues to struggle in the polls, the Democrats aren’t offering a credible alternative. “Trump will be hard to beat,” he said in his grade comments. He noted that the president isn’t polling well in the states he shocked Hillary Clinton in 2016, but that doesn’t mean he’s in trouble of losing.

The key demographics the left have counted on, Blacks and Mexicans, are increasing in their support of Trump.
Trump is currently governing for the pollsters and not his base. He’s keeping his approval rating above 40% while relying on his very loyal base to stay the course. Once the Mueller report is done, and the fallout managed, he will tack back to his base. Right now it’s about being uncontroversial enough to make the Democrats shy away from impeachment. Dangerous to rely on the base’s loyalty so much, but it looks like it’s working. If he can pick up some lasting support from the middle in the meantime, then great.

There should be many from various groups: Blacks, Latinos, Jews, Women, Unions, plus all of the the people who now have jobs, or better jobs, or higher paycheques, etc. All have a reason to jump on the Trump Train. If he can peel off enough from each of these groups, plus his base, the people voting “I HATE TRUMP” shouldn’t have a chance.
“Trump is currently governing for the pollsters and not his base”
Reinforcing his support of the 2nd Amendment at CPAC, and vetoing the resolution against his NE, is ignoring his base?
He’s doing exactly what we sent him there to do.
Base, middle, blah blah blah. People who love America will vote for Trump in 2020. People who don’t love America will vote for whoever the democrats nominate.
Caving on the shutdown, promising the highest levels of immigration ever. Let’s settle on a mixed bag.
Yes, sgreed!
When I wear my Trump/MAGA gear which includes, hats, Tee shirts, sweat shirts, hoodies and buttons, I get more thumbs up than scowls.
I realize that wearing a Trump 2020 Tee shirt with a MAGA hat and a Trump/Pence 2020 button all at the same time, may be a bit over the top, but the older I get, the less I care about other peoples feelings.
Oh, did I mention, I carry, so I really don't care about some snowflake's melt down.
I feared for my life, and I want my lawyer.
If the wall is built, he won’t have any problems.
We’ve never ever trusted Zogby, who we believe slants polls to push the communist-Islamic agenda and its candidates
however on that,
he’s right so far on this call...
PDJT could win re-election hands-down against any of the as-yet-named D’s.. who are all crazies....some of the very worst possible candidates on earth...
but... should the SorozNazi Puppetmeisters decide to run a credible D candidate (yes, its possible there is such a thing...)then what with all their money and busing in illegals to vote and ballot=box stuffing and putting their moles into secretary of state positions (who certify state votes)....and of course all their controlled mass media propaganda... then.....they could steal the White House again..
keep aware...
“Dangerous to rely on the base’s loyalty so much, but it looks like it’s working.”
Once the ever-trumpers figure out the blatant betrayal on immigration, he’ll lose 20% of his base. Then a rat will get elected and America is finished.
Not off base based on information I’ve obtained but the trend is our friend.
They threw their best punches to annihilate the Trump presidency. They failed.
You’re going to see how hard a counterpuncher like DJT hits. It’s coming and he will win re-election.
Which is why the dims are importing millions of new voters from Central America.
Trump’s current approval rating is about 45% positive. That means 45% of Americans would probably vote for him.
Both Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden are, at best, at 30% each in the polls. That means that 30% of Democratic voters only, not all Americans, would vote for them.
Every Democrat knows who Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden are, yet neither of them can excite more than 30% of Democrats to say they support them?!
And that’s before Joe Biden jumps into the race, where he’ll be torn apart like a piñata by every Leftist Democrat who wants more media attention. And, if Joe fails to enter the race, it will be Bernie Sanders who will be equally torn apart by his fellow 25 presidential hopefuls, also to gain more media attention.
It doesn’t look good for the Democrats.
My observation as well. The story line for illegals is cheap labor, but all of the commiecrats’ actions clearly shout “ILLEGAL VOTERS!!!”
Yep. Why do you think they’re demanding that 16 year olds vote?
That’s because the base understands what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. We want him to do what he has to to pick up new supporters.
John Zogby is right-on-the-money. The Democrat Party has no one and mean no one that is even close to being the equal of POTUS Donald J. Trump...period. the american people and registered voters would have to be insane to elect any Democrat that is presently announced to seeking POTUS post.
As a matter of fact....If the Trump base of voters wishes to stop the Democrat Party cold right now, all they need to do is turn out 50,000-100,000 supporters of POTUS, Trump on his upcoming rally being held on Thursday, March 28, 2019 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. That massive input would blow the meager turnouts of the entire 20+ & growing everyday, Democrat Candidates now declared as POTUS candidates. LMAO!!! Trumpie Supporters....make it happen!!!
