Posted on 02/23/2018 6:50:09 AM PST by hcmama

Friday, February 23, 2018

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove.

This is the president’s highest job approval rating since mid-June of last year. President Obama earned 45% approval on this date in the second year of his presidency.

The latest figures include 34% who Strongly Approve of the way the president is performing and 41% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -7. (see trends).

The President continues to defy the odds, and baffle the MSM pundits. Imagine if the press coverage was evenhanded. He’d be at 65% approval.

Wow.... if he goes over 50% its lights for the Democrats.

And that’s despite the 24/7 negative coverage he gets from the fake news media.

It could be that a lot of the media and left’s tactics are backfiring on them. Let’s hope so.

Yup - I believe the tax cuts are the most significant reason for his increased standing in the polls.

And even Never Trumper Republicans want to suddenly appear with a popular President.

If this trend continues, the GOP will not only retain control of the House but expand its grip on the Senate.

Granted, we have tens of millions of clueless sheep in this country, but there are far more Americans than we can imagine who are common sense thinking people who know this president is putting country first ahead of everything else.

Trump's reaction to the Parkland shooting has contrasted so favorably to the vitriolic coverage by the mainstream media. It is they who seem unhinged and exploitative.

Amazing how when you finally elect a pro-America president, he finds himself rather popular with actual Americans.
