Fear not, DNC-MSM, when Trump returns to DC the Deep State will leak more crap to you via “unnamed sources” to bring his numbers down again. /s
The “outrage of the day” has continued in Trump’s absence.
The only real hope is when outrage fatigue sets in and even the old media is more or less forced to look at accomplishments.
His approval ratings rising don’t matter to the Establishment. The Establishment wants his ratings to be low, so they can stop his policies, such as building a Wall, renegotiating NATO, travel ban etc. The Establishment joined in criticizing Trump on Russian interference and the Comey firing.
Pass the tax cuts, Congress, and that approval ratings will soar even for you cowards.
All the GOP had to do was get behind the wall and Trump’s and congressional approval would be approaching 60%. It just shows how much power K Street wields over congress.
What’s really interesting is the graph in the Rasmussen article.
His approval really starts to rise and disapproval starts to fall about the time he canned Comey.
Regardless of what the turd media says, it looks like a lot of people approve of sending Comey packing.
Congress isn’t going to do anything to aid Trump until near the 2018 midterm elections...Then watch how much the republicans claim to like Trump...
“It just shows how much power K Street wields over congress.”
And therein lies the matter. The question for a Congressman is: Do you want to be popular or do you want to be outlandishly, ridiculously wealthy for doing no work whatsoever. Congressmen, almost without exception, choose the latter option...every time.
Who cares. Trump can stop them dead in their tracks by refusing to fund the government and going on vacation. It’s really the only thing that is going to work since they don’t want him to be successful. They want the country for fall under his watch.
and it shouldn’t be for a day or two. He should do it for a month or 2. Even longer. Bring us into 2018 without a “functioning” government.
“Who cares. Trump can stop them dead in their tracks by refusing to fund the government and going on vacation. It’s really the only thing that is going to work since they don’t want him to be successful. They want the country for fall under his watch.”
I hope he fights them for the next budget.
And Schumer and Pelosi go on nerve medication....
A wise idea there, prince.
To see the US government shut down and the sun continuing to rise each morning and social security checks still arriving on time. That may be the ultimate way to severely cripple the Deep State.
And Trump has will to use that tool if he has to. He has not chosen to draw a line in the sand on this issue, but he may very well do so.
Trust me: in the electoral college states + MN, NH, ME, VA, CO, NV, NM, he’s likely on average well over 50.
Ras didn’t do state polling in 2016, but was within 2 in the national (wrong way, had Trump winning popular vote).
Still, this is in keeping with PPD polling at 45 and rising.
I didn't trust them then - I don't trust them now...
Ho-Hum...boring...failed poll numbers from the same folks that told you all, that Hillary Clinton was the next POTUS. Real numbers for DJT......59% approval of the American people!!! Democrat Party is self-destructing, causing political death by it’s own hand!!! Luv it!!!
They predicted a 322 electoral vote sweep for Hillary.
So if Rasmussen says it's a 48% approval, you can bet it's more like 55% approval.
