That must be it, but I believe that President will over time be more popular.

Remember that arrogant pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania always made it clear that he was president to only the democrats not of all Americans regardless of color. If you were white or black and a Republican or conservative he did not consider you as his constituent.

President elect Donald Trump on the other hand wants to be president of all Americans, regardless of color, religion or party affiliation, and if those snowflakes can't get over it, they can just jump off a bridge for all I care.

I completely agree. I only meant to point out that there's no reason we should believe any political-interest poll that comes out in the next few weeks or months (and they most certainly will.)

We'll see polls on Trump's "popularity," the people's "belief that he can get things done," whether or not "hate has grown" since the election, and so on. These will be push polls, designed to put words in people's mouths, and ultimately to diminish Trump's standing.

We've heard for 8 years that Obama's a well-liked President, with a well above 50% popularity. Despite overwhelming polls that showed that people thought the country was headed in the wrong direction, that the economy was weak, and that people feared terrorist attacks in this country. How can a President be so popular and well-liked when those other topics showed that people were unhappy with many of those issues?

We saw the polls leading up to the recent election: many of them were over-sampled and showed Hillary with up to double-digit leads. In the end, you could've flipped a coin and came up with more credible numbers. If any poll comes out that shows Trump has some sort of disadvantage, it should be immediately questioned and dismissed.
