President Trump has averaged a job approval rating of 50 percent or higher in 17 states since taking office earlier this year, according to a Gallup survey.

Trump has recorded a job approval rating of below 40 percent in the same number of states, however, according to the poll.

The president has had some of his highest approval ratings in the Southern, Plains and Mountain West states. His highest marks came in West Virginia, North Dakota and South Dakota, where his approval ratings were near 60 percent.

Trump received some of his lowest job approval ratings in states in the Northeast and along the West Coast. Those states include Vermont, Massachusetts, Maryland and California, where Trump received job approval ratings of 30 percent or less.

Gallup: Trump's Job Approval Averaging 50 Percent Or Higher In 17 States

Yet if you turn on the tube all the talking heads (including Fox) parrot the Fake Media polls that his approval is only around 36%.

Look, folks, the Democrat party has been destroyed, first by Obama & Clinton, and currently by their own self-inflicted wounds. Game over!!! Add to that, the Russian farce that never was has now destroyed Robert Mueller and his troupe of low life Democrat Clinton and Obama lawyers. End of story!!!

As for mainstream media polls...if anyone in this country believes the biased liberal, Democrat, scum & vermin media polls...they are most probably stoned on reefer or, simply insane!!!

Gallup has made plenty of money from the Appeal To Majority fallacy while simultaneously claiming to be an oracle.

If I don’t care what an idiot thinks, why should I care what 100 idiots think or even 1,000 idiots?

Gallup and other pollsters are big on giving demographic information (which respondents foolishly disclose) about their samples but they assiduously avoid applying any test of knowledge for it would alienate respondents and vastly alter the outcome of most polls. If someone doesn’t know, for example, what price elasticity of demand is then why should their opinion on Obamacare have any validity whatsoever?

In other words, “Flyover Country” really likes President Trump!

..During conversations with voters back home, “not one has brought up Russia to me, not one has brought up impeachment,” said [Democrat Cheri] Bustos, who represents a northwestern Illinois district that voted overwhelmingly for Trump.

“We have to figure out this heartland messaging if we’re going to get to 218 members of Congress by 2018.”...

So, “Who in hell cares if the Russians did anything or if Jeff Sessions isn’t helping to build up the masculinity problems with a few so called Trump voters/Session haters!.”

What are his approval ratings in states where there will be Dem senators up for election?

The Dim-mo-crat party has not really been destroyed. It simply changed its name. It is no longer the Dims of the 1940s and 50s. Todays Dims, in my humble opinion, is no different than any Socialist government group around the world. This mob would try anything those governments would try to gain power, IF the citizens were not armed to the teeth like we are. The Germans, Saddam, Soviets, etc., unarmed the citizens before they ran over the country. The Dims haven’t been able to pull that off here yet, but their politics are still the same. Taught by the likes of Lenin, Marx, Mao, Stalin, Clintons, Obama, Soros and all the same. Communism or its little brother, socialism, is the same. The Dims have simply changed the name. People who were the old Dims are gone. My dad, uncles, grandfathers, all were dims back in those days. But I know they would not be now, not with this mob in charge. Why they have not changed the name of the party to something like National Socialist Dimokrat Party of Amerika, or some similar name. No, the party has simply been taken over. It has not been destroyed. They are still here. They are still out there. Just look around. About ONE HALF of the nation carry their name around.

Think where those numbers really are except for the liberal infested hell holes. First the Hill is using a model that over samples democrats by as much as 12% and under samples independents by a similar margin. Second, America loves Donald Trump and detests the political swamp that is trying to devour him. If they don’t get the picture soon, this will not end well for the beltway crowd.

I just spent a week in the Carolinas on vacation. What a breath of fresh air it was to see Trump bumper stickers everywhere and much happier, more positive people.

Outside the big cities (that are influenced by establishment media), Trump appears to be very popular.

California??? Is that part of the United States?

The only states that matter are the ones he flipped.
