Approval of President Donald Trump’s job performance hit its highest level in more than five months, aided by a majority of Black and other minority voters voicing approval, Rasmussen’s daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday reveals.
The national survey of likely voters shows that 50% approve of Trump, the highest level reached since approval hit 52% on February 27. However, while 39% “strongly approve” of Trump, 43% “strongly disapprove.” Total disapproval was 48%.
A slight majority of Black voters and an even higher percentage of other minority voters approve of Trump, the poll shows.
Among Black voters, 51% said they approve of Trump – topping the president’s 47% approval among Whites. Sixty percent (60%) of voters of all other races said they approve of Trump’s job performance.
Pres. Trump celebrated his latest approval numbers with a Twitter post noting that his internal polling shows that his approval is actually higher:
P
Whoops...
Holy Cow! 51% of Black voters approve of DJT...
If this holds, the DIMS will have to dump Sleepy Joe...
51% approval among Blacks?
Too late to run Oprah or Mikey, the only two candidates I can think of who would excite the dem base.
HOORAY Americans!
I suspect that the President does enjoy more support from racial minorities than the average Republican. But I have my doubts that it is as high as this article claims.
Show me the votes!
“Among Black voters, 51% said they approve of Trump – topping the president’s 47% approval among Whites. Sixty percent (60%) of voters of all other races said they approve of Trump’s job performance.”
Trump and previous GOP presidential candidates have consistently done better with white than black or Hispanic voters. I doubt the quote above and would like to see a link to Rasmussen confirming it.
I do not believe that number—makes no sense given the history of black votes in 2016.
Now you can see why the Biden campaign are desperate choose a Black Woman for Vice President.
I saw Uncle Tom DVD and many strong supporters were blacks.
What? Blacks don’t like angry white people tearing up cities in the name of BLM?
Trump should make a campaign ad with that crazy white chick in DC screaming at a black cop.
Why do you think think Joe promised a black VP candidate?
I went to the referenced poll and it does not mention black or other minority voters as a subset.
Does this mean the media is lying to us? I’m shocked, truly.
Imagine that :)
If it weren’t for RINOs, I’d say vote Republican ticket.
Insights welcome.
The left always claims that Rasmussen is biased towards conservatives but, according to Joe Concha:
“On its final poll released Nov. 7, the day before Election Day, Rasmussen had Hillary Clinton up 2 points on Donald Trump. Clinton won the popular vote by 1 percentage point, even though Donald Trump beat her on electoral votes.
No other pollster tracked by RealClearPolitics came as close to the final results.”
I drive all over southern PA. The number of TRUMP flags is incredible. And most of them say “NO MORE BULLSHIT”. I’ve seen ONE Biden sign.
