Another Poll Found President Trump’s Approval Rating Is Historically Low

President Donald Trump, who entered the White House with historically low approval ratings, continues to receive record high disapproval ratings compared to his predecessors. Two weeks into Trump’s presidency, a majority of people (53%) disapprove of how he is handling the job, while just 44% approve, according to a CNN/ORC poll released Friday. Those numbers reflect the highest disapproval rating for a newly elected president since such figures were first tracked, according to CNN. By comparison, former President Ronald Reagan’s initial approval rating of 51% was only slightly higher than Trump’s, but his disapproval rating (13%) was not nearly as high. The poll results were sharply divided along partisan lines, with 90% of Republicans voicing approval for Trump and just 10% of Democrats saying the same. CNN’s survey echoes the results of a recent Gallup poll, which found Trump to be the first president in the history of Gallup surveys with an initial job approval rating below 50%. Since his inauguration, Trump has faced several high-profile protests, including a swift backlash to his immigration order last week. Americans surveyed by CNN were divided in their views on the immigration ban. While a majority (53%) said they oppose the order, 47% said they favor it. The CNN survey of 1,002 adults, conducted between Jan. 31 and Feb. 2, has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points.

I think these polls give nut-jobs like CNN something to brag about. More false news.

[lee martell]

I’m not too concerned about that. Take any poll, you will find some for it or against it. Depends on your pool of participants and the way the questions are phrased.
Some folks will tell you want the believe you wish to hear, just to end the ‘interrogation’.

“Polls” like this are nothing but fraud.

There u go

[Texas Fossil]

CNN is FAKE NEWS.

Would you expect anything but a “fake poll” from them.

[vannrox]

Polls are a sub-category of Fake News. And CNN is one of the largest organizations of Fake News around.

[nopardons]

They don’t call citizens,but when they do, they call people inside their own backrooms and those of the N.Y.Times, the WaPo, and MSNBC.

Um, Yeah,.. About Those Latest Media Polls

February 3, 2017 by SUNDANCE

A Reminder…

:Amid the jaw-dropping revelations within the U.S. body politic in 2016, one of the most important was the American electorate discovering that Media Polling is just as brutally biased as the media entities who present the polling results.

With election 2016 behind us, and predicting “media opinion polls” once again being used in 2017 to create false narratives, the truth behind the intentionally constructed 2016 deception must not simply fade back into the shadows.

Never again should the American voter trust polling presented by corporate media. Everything about media polling is a financed and manufactured fraud.

For many people the November 8th, 2016 election was the culmination of many years of difficult effort. This intensely challenging endeavor to awaken a nation and expose the media deception surrounding us was begun by ordinary Americans long before Donald Trump announced his candidacy.

In 2008 truth-tellers were labeled “bitter clingers“; in 2009 they were “extremists“; in 2010 “racists“; in 2011 “whack-o-birds“; in 2012 “hobbits” and “crazies“; in 2013 “right-wing nuts“; in 2014 “slope heads in flyover country“; in 2015 we were “nativists“; and in 2016 our labeling culminated as -amid other things- “a basket of deplorables”.

However, through all of the name calling and ridicule we remained what we always were, simply “Americans”. Americans, who joined hands and stood resolute against the furnace of overwhelming opposition.

The goal was miles and miles away, and often we could only move an inch at a time. 2016 was a movement of success against overwhelming odds.

Exactly 132:1 odds in just the last 18 months to be precise.

Before we begin the arduous process of holding our political representatives accountable for the mandate we require, there is a very important detail which must be forever stitched into the binding of our republic to ensure it is never again forgotten.

THE MEDIA POLLSTERS DIDN’T GET IT WRONG – Their pollsters did not work from the wrong data set, or begin their analysis with the wrong assumptions. The media pollsters, consultants and professional political class did not work from incorrect baselines…..

…THEY LIED.

The professional media polling agents knew exactly what the truth was.

They lied and manipulated their data in a concerted effort to intentionally falsify reality.

There must be no doubt, EVER, in the mind of any political observer as to what took place within the expressed and broadcasted polling which fueled over two years of broadcast news, and drove massive anxiety amid the consuming audience – The media, all of the corporate media, intentionally lied.

They knew the truth. The same analytical tools available to us, and to those who were ridiculed for truth-telling, were available to them and many more. They did not get it wrong; they didn’t make mistakes. They chose to lie to the American electorate.

So lets name the most notorious liars so their names and organizations can forever be dispatched from the land where credibility is of value:

• Fox News, pollster Daron Shaw, Shaw Research and associates and the Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdoch. – Example HERE
• NBC News, pollster Mark Murray, Hart Research and Associates. Example
• Monmouth University, pollster Patrick Murray. – Example HERE
• CBS News and New York Times writ large. – Example HERE
• ABC News and The Washington Post. – Example HERE
• CNN News Network and ORC Polling. – Example HERE
• Rasmussen and Reuters Polling Operations. – Example HERE
• Bloomberg Polling – Example HERE

These individuals along with every single corporate national media polling outlet, which in turn contributed to -and skewed- the larger aggregate of the Real Clear Politics average of polls, were complicit in their intent to deceive the American electorate in an ideological scheme to manipulate the psyche of the American voter…

…and yet they have the nerve now to broadcast endless hours of pearl-clutching opinion on a supposed, manufactured and false “Russian influence” over the same election. Think about that jaw-dropping hypocrisy for a moment.

There is not a single shred of credibility that should remain with any of the above mentioned polling entities or the corporate media outlets who espoused them.

They did not make mistakes; they did not operate from the wrong assumptions. These organizations, as part of the larger corporate objectives from those who fund their endeavors, lied.

Allowing them to say they made mistakes is only dooming the American voter to a continued cycle of battered electorate syndrome. These entities are our abusers. They have been gaslighting the American voter for years, and they have been able to remain unchecked because no-one ever called them to task before this year.

Throughout the last two years we, along with others, have identified and exposed this corrupt business endeavor while simultaneously being ridiculed and marginalized at each undertaking. There should be no quarter provided and no amount of forgiveness ever offered.

The entire construct of their operational business model is corrupt from top to bottom. READ MORE

And Libs rise from the graveyards to vote on a regular basis. Some things never change.

Outstanding post

Polls are not done to be reflective of public opinion, there are done to shape public opinion.
They have been using this technique for a long time to corral people where they want them to go.
Ignore the fake polls and the fake news.
The real poll happened on November 8th.
Thank God we won and we have a legitimate President again.

[Sarah Barracuda]

OH NOES you know what this means..Hillary Clinton is going to win the election EASILY no point in even voting she already has this election in the bag..OH WAIT...

[TomGuy]

There was another poll thread earlier that claimed 55% wanted Obama back.

Yeah, right.

Dig in. Buck up. Fasten your seatbelts. We will be seeing this kind of crapola for the next 4 and potentially 8 years. They don’t even try to hide it by claiming it is journalism. All they care about is pushing their narrative, even if they have to make up news to do it.

[dowcaet]

CNN- Creators of Nothing News. Bootlickers for Democrats. Attack dogs on Republicans. They’ve been a joke for far too long.

[Lurkinanloomin]

+1

[Scram1]

The historical record and conventional wisdom would say Hillary is President for having carried her home state by 21% with CNN counting and counting again.

[oldbrowser]

I’m not sure about the approval rating accuracy. But I am sure about who won the election.

[gunsequalfreedom]

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 54% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-six percent (46%) disapprove.

The latest figures include 41% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 38% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of +3.

[gunsequalfreedom]

CNN is so fake. So fake.
