Trump hits 49 percent approval rating in Gallup poll (tied personal best)
The Hill ^ | 5/01/20 | Max Greenwood

President Trump’s job approval soared to 49 percent in a new Gallup poll released Thursday, making up a 6-point loss from a similar survey released just two weeks ago.

The new approval number is tied for Trump’s personal best in Gallup’s polling data. A survey conducted by Gallup in mid-March similarly found his approval ticking up to 49 percent before it took a 6-point dive in the first half of April.

The poll released on Thursday marked a rare instance in Gallup’s polling history in which Trump’s overall approval is above water. Only 47 percent of respondents said they disapprove of the job he’s doing in the White House.

**SNIP**

The 6-point jump in Trump’s overall approval rating owes primarily to a bump in support among independents, according to Gallup. Forty-seven percent of independents said they approve of the president’s handling of his job compared to only 39 percent in the previous April survey.

Among Republicans, the president remains overwhelmingly popular. Ninety-three percent said they approve of the job he’s doing in the White House. He remains highly unpopular with Democrats, only 8 percent of whom said they approve of his job in office.

The carona didn't take him out as planned. Now watch as RATS destroy their own states. Oh, and no bailouts.

I wish I could bet with you guys.

There will be a city/state bailout budget as part of the next “package”, if there is indeed one.

Got red states wanting a piece of the action too now.

But I hope mitch sticks to his guns

Never has this been so true as with the Wuhan scam. Remember,President Trump is only human and now's the time to rally behind him and push for his 2020 reelection like never before. At the very least it gives us 4 years to prepare for the inevitable onslaught against our freedom.

When all government ...in little as in great things... shall be drawn to Washington as the center of all power; it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another, and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated." -- Thomas Jefferson, 1821

All those deaths! All the fuss and blaming! Shutting down the economy! Their plan failed! Soros will have to find another global hoax to fund in his quest to topple Trump. The democrats will have to search for another whore who will claim that Trump attacked her 40 years ago. The chinese will have to try something else to get rid of the man who made them give back some of the money they made from us.

The GOP will not pass a state/local government bill without some very tight restrictions in it. The biggest one will have to be employer immunity from civil lawsuits over COVID-19. This will be a big test to determine how much leverage the trial lawyers have over the Democrats.

I see the free traitors who defended these trade deals with China are quiet about it now.

My personal wish list for Trump (1) investigate Fauci for his Wuhan lab money payment , (2) Update the latest 3 Reopen America steps Pence put forward as, latest data shows infringement of freedom over Covid should cease (3) order CDC to change guidance to States to count any “suspected” Covid death as Covid and, (4) a mea culpa or the buck stops here on the entire Covid fiasco. (5) Drop the story that the shut down saved lives when Sweden and Stanford data shows otherwise. To me, it would Make the President Great Again, and calm some of the hysteria.
Rush says no politician will ever admit a mistake. Trump is not a politician, but is a business man who loves America.
No attacks please..just a wish list.

Remember that Trump received more votes from California than any other state. There are millions of Republicans in CA.

no bailouts, and I’d love to see the states like Il, Ca, etc go BK and cancel unfunded pensions.

The best part of Trump’s strong and immovable approval ratings is watching the wails and moans of leftist tears.
