All Republicans are Hitler according to the MSM. Trump is “literally Hitler” according to MSM, yet has a 50 percent approval rating. That can only mean 50% of the country is “literally Hitler”.

It’s Godwin’s Law all the way down.

Sample size?

% Dem vs Repub vs “Independent (Dems who won’t say it)”???

These push polls always oversample Dems.

Why is it that the right has no polling organization of its own? It is not like polling is a rocket science. Cowardly GOPe won't even try it. So somebody else has to create one. Maybe Breibart?

Totally agree. I just spend a full week down in Florida and drove both ways. Everybody at the resort I stayed at was totally behind Trump. All this "anti-Trump" nonsense is a fake media false narrative. Sure, we have loudmouth Leftists out there protesting for the cameras. When haven't we had loudmouth Leftists when there is a Republican in the White House? But by and large, the people are behind him 100%.

It was very nice to get out of NYC for a while and get a pulse from the rest of America. On the way down and back we stayed in places like Savannah, GA and Richmond, VA and people seem pretty upbeat and positive about the new Administration. Yes, it comes up in conversation too, which I was surprised about because in NYC and CT, the election never comes up as everybody is on eggshells about it. At the Waffle Houses and the Texas Roadhouse restaurant we went to, people were talking Trump. I was at the Moon River Brewery in Savannah Sunday afternoon and the bartender there had the Daytona 500 on one TV and FoxNews on the other. When he found out I was from NYC he asked me what the hell were wrong with the people up there (for wanting Hillary). I then showed him photos of Trump Tower that I took on Election Day.

It's nice to get away from the Northeast every now and then.

Fake Poll...

It’s always 2 1/2 to 3 times whatever number they give you.

So that means President Trump really has between 75% to 80% or take the medium of 78% is most likely the real number.

We live in the Blue Belly of the Beast, West Coast. This weekend we rented in a lovely area a couple of hours south. The owners were so relieved that we were normal, they could not do enough for us once they found out we were Trumpsters. They face a similar problem and were so happy to see normal folk for a change.

Pretty even; however, we conservatives nearly always hang up on these folks; that skewing isn’t accounted for. Plus, likely some dems (easy to lie) say they are republicans.

I do not know what the true approval number is, but among the folks I know who supported and voted Trump, there is some concern about the manner in which he communicates his message. I think once there is tangible progress on immigration, taxes, jobs, gun rights (etc) and simply with the passage of time, the approval rating will skyrocket. Getting illegal immigration under control will be massive.

Wow! That is great news. I am surprised the pollster actually published such a result. Since most of these polls are skewered left from silly wording of the questions [push polls], this means Trump is doing a lot better than we think.
