The president’s economic approval rating has hit an all-time high since he took office, a new survey shows. According to the CNBC All America Economic Survey, the majority of Americans approve of Trump’s handling of the economy.

The economic approval rating went up 6 points, placing it at 51 percent with 36 percent of the public disapproving. Fifty-four percent said the economy is good or excellent, the highest recorded by CNBC in the 10 years of the survey....

The WIN has spread wide and deep.

Plain to see.

None so blind as those that won't see.

Still waters run deep

Watch the water.

I think that will take a hit with what going on with the tariffs. More Republicans are going to be upset about that than the loony left, even. I understand the actions against China but I don’t think the President should have taken on Europe and North America at the same time, unless it’ll get these countries to the negotiation quickly.

Even the administration seems divided on this issue.

I’d like to hear the statistic with just blacks responding. I think more than 60-percent would admit that they are more positive now than they’ve felt in forty years.

I think this November is going to scare the living $#*+ out of the Democrats.

The tariff issue is one that Trump can flip flop on a dime. I expect that when he gets as much as he thinks he can get he will announce that a deal has been reached.

Charging US consumers because other countries do it too is “reciprocal” but not smart. Best plan is the concept of nobody charging tariffs at all.

BTW, just learned that there are several thousand little tariffs in our trade law — thanks to our bought and paid for legislators — who have been adding these to the trade laws forever. These all need to be dropped too.

The 30 year globalist experiment in "Free Trade" is an abject failure. Why? because the rest of the of world didn't play along and used the USA like a cheap whore.

Why does the rest of the world almost universally practice protectionism? And name a country with lower average tariff rates than the USA. Answer these questions or shut up all of you globalist hacks.

Without tariffs there is no Trump agenda, no MAGA. Only more stagnation, deficits, de industrialization and ultimate doom. The uni-party loves the one sided tariff situation we are in now. So are you a Free Traitor™ or a patriot?

The President put an end to the Obama recession.

One major reason why the pinkos are turning violent.

Add 20 points to get the true number.

at a point logic/facts/reason intrudes too strongly to those susceptible to day and night leftist propaganda.

Sane People want jobs. Not to be subjective to leftists tho dangle a check in front of them and then tell them how they have to vote.

I think its fair to say I am a Trump supporter all the way. My expectation was contained in my other post, but Trump is the negotiator in chief and he has my support in this and his other endeavors.

My ideal would be to drop tariffs between all countries, and provide support for our critical industries, such as steel and aluminum.

At this time I believe we are in a duel over how to deal with different costs of energy and labor around the world. We have a dumb left over tariff situation designed at the end of the last war. It should be replaced as should Nafta and other trade agreements.
