President Trumps favorite poll isnt giving him a boost anymore.
The Presidents approval rating in Rasmussen Reports, a right-leaning and oft-criticized polling firm beloved by Trump, dipped below 40% for the first time ever Monday.
That new low reflects Trumps plunge in nearly every mainstream opinion poll, which have shown him scoring record-low approval ratings through his first months in office.
It also comes just a month after Trump hand-picked a Rasmussen poll as proof that he was performing better than his predecessor, former President Barack Obama.
Mondays Rasmussen survey showed Trump getting overall approval from only 39% of likely U.S. voters, compared to 61% overall disapproval.
Twenty-six percent of the 500 respondents said they strongly approve of Trumps performance, while 49% said they strong disapprove.
The latest numbers show a 23-point drop in Trumps overall Rasmussen approval index since he assumed office.
Those lousy numbers are in line with Trump scoring all-time lows in several other mainstream polls as he concluded his chaotic sixth month in the Oval Office.

Rasmussen Reports ,ROFL
LOL. They are seriously criticizing the one pollster that was closer to the reality in November than the rest of them?
The NY Daily News is angry and hated Trump from the beginning.
I know Ras has Trump down a bit. The price he has to pay for grinding it out and fighting the establishment.
He will not stop fighting. And he shouldn’t. We should fight against any local media in our towns that just repeat the national media lies.
Do it on Twitter, facebook, etc. It’ll have an effect. If you really want, call the radio, newspaper, or local TV station. Or, stand outside their business with a sign calling them out for bias.
Trump shouldn’t fight this alone on social media. We should fight alongside him.

See Post #13 above.
Polls polls polls - despite them, President Trump inhabits the WH.....
Even if Ohio was won solidly, Michigan was a hair’s width from being won by Hillary, as was Pennsylvania. They could easily go blue if the SJWs decide to vote with greater turnout to destroy the “evil Republican President” next election.
