They's just s*itball throwers.

Abraham Lincoln (today is his birthday not “Presidents Day” that he shares with such luminaries as Franklin Pierce and Barack Obama) won the presidency with 39 percent of the vote. given the disasters of the first three years of the Civil War, I would imagine he was considerably lower than this if they had an “approval rating” which sounds like crap to begin with. Well, he won reelection in a landslide in 1864, Gallup. Trump won a hardcore 46 percent of the vote, I somehow doubt he has lost 6 percent or about 13 percent of his voting supporters in three weeks.

Gallup used to be a reputable polling service. Somewhere along the way, they’ve become corrupted. I read their polls are of 1000 people, chosen at random, then computer algorithms are used to extrapolate how the population as a whole would poll. In other words, nonsense. 1000 people, whose phone numbers are computer selected, based on area codes. No wonder their polling is worthless.
Rasmussen polling, on the other hand, targets likely voters. That lets out a lot of liberals who don’t bother to vote, such as the screaming rioters at anti-Trump rallies.

The results are based on a three-day Trolling average.

Majority are upset that Trump is not kicking the lib’s butt harder than he is.

Even Rasmussen has been biased since the operation changed hands some time ago...

The fake polls had everyone convinced that Hillary would win.

How much of the disapproval comes because he is not moving fast enough? It is not monolithic.

The guy has been in office for what? And we are to believe that these polls reflect on him as if he has been in for 8 years.

Some logic: The ONE thing that Trump has done to attract any attention is the immigration order. Yet that has gotten high approval ratings amongst the public. But his approval polls are low.

In other news, the polls still have Hillary winning the election.

The new low is owned by Gallup;
not by our President Trump.

In the future, Gallup will only be used in the context of horse racing; never again as an award winning polling agency.

I’m just gonna sit back and enjoy 4 years worth of Lib riots and fake approval polls. And when that’s done, I’m gonna enjoy another 4 years of the same.

Well if they’d stop polling Muslims and liberals on the West coast and the Northeastern states.
