Is Obama's Approval Rating Real?

There are no two ways about it, there is no other way to candy coat this. The Barack Obama agenda was blown to smithereens, specifically defeated.

So how can he have a 53% approval rating?

Well, if a pollster asks a voter, "Do you approve of the job president's doing or not?" it makes perfect sense to me that voters would not want to encounter a pollster mad at them for disapproving Obama 'cause the pollster might say it's racist or whatever.

The easiest thing to do is say, yeah.

Obama’s approval number is about as real as the 4.5% unemployment number.

Trump needs to figure out a way to prevent politically cooked statistics and data. This also applies to store-bought scientific studies. It has been used as a propaganda weapon against “We the People” for way too long, with global warming stats and studies chief among misinformation.

Is Obama’s Approval Rating Real?>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No. That poll is as mistaken as it was about the Trump national vote.Who do they sample, The Southern Poverty Law conference?

Secondly even if the approval is that high ( 52%), it is not informed by fact. Obama will be discovered to be the most destrucctive of any presidet we have had.Just look at Libya, Syria, Northern Nigeria, The Sudan, Chicago, Paris, Cologne.

Obama is a betrayer of allies: Libya, Egypt, Iraq,Israel, Japan, South Korea.

In my books Obamas shuck and jive approval is about -52% .

Zero was locked in at 43% from May 2009 and it got a 10% bounce by the propagandist pollsters to validate liberalism. I can’t speak for the whole country but in my part of the country, the Obama stickers on cars utterly vanished by 2010. Any liberals in the office, when walking up on any kind of political conversation, turned around and walked straight out. They usually said nothing but sometimes said, “I’m done with politics.”

53%. No, it’s more like 5.3%, the pollsters missed a decimal point.

AND, he need to stay his course and competently explain to the public what he’s doing. He needs to learn from what GW Bush screwed up. GW’s answer to negative press was to make zero effort to defend himself. He figured good policy would explain itself. No, the media just took the stance, “He’s gone silent. That means he’s got no explanation and he knows we’re right in our criticisms of him and his policies.” The media just chewed him apart unopposed. How the hell is that supposed to motivate your base?

In Bush’s 2nd term, he started chasing opinion polls. On the VERY few issues that he took a strong stand on, he was on the wrong side of the issue (his Supreme court pick, a woman whose experience in law wasn’t even up to that of an entry-level paralegal; and illegal immigration). At the same time, the war in Iraq and Afghanistan languished and became rudderless. He turned progressive and all the conservatives that had his back for 6 years got kicked square in the teeth repeatedly. He went from 50% of the electorate hating him to 100% of the electorate hating him. NOBODY trusts or respects a turncoat.

The best thing Trump could do is take a hard look at the Bush Administration and hold it up as an example of what not to do.

People like Obama as a human being.

It’s just when he opens his mouth that you start to really dislike him.

Why do people tell lies?
Because they want you to rely on what they are telling you.

Lie: A statement made with the intent to deceive, that is known to be false or made recklessly and without regard to whether it is true or not, so that the person hearing or reading the lie relies upon the statement and to their detriment/damage. (Also known as misrepresentation or fraud.)
Why do the MSM and the pollsters lie? They wanted to sneak another one by.

This was a critical presidential election. We dodged a bullet.
Thank G_d for Donald Trump coming along.
We have time now, we can fix this huge mess created by liars like our Inner Uniparty and their propaganda organs, the MSM.

All the angst, tears and threats we’re seeing now? Brainwashed, feebleminded, easily-led pinheads.

Yes, it’s real because he’s a nice Black man and we’re not supposed to have anything but positive feelings about any Black person.

On the other hand...His programs, agenda, policies, legacy and lack of results were soundly rejected Tuesday night.

If this were true,the Queen of Sheba would have had a 70% approval rating. Worst 8 years of our lives is soon to be behind us.
