Poll Finds Majority Disapprove of President Trump’s Executive Orders
Newsweek ^ | Feb. 2, 2017 | Michele Gorman

Posted on 02/02/2017 6:38:18 PM PST by Innovative

All three of President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders have earned majority disapproval ratings among Americans, according to a new Gallup poll released Thursday afternoon.

Arguably the most controversial order came on January 27, when Trump banned Syrian refugees and immigrants from seven majority-Muslim countries from entering the United States. Since then, Americans in cities from coast to coast have gathered in airports and streets to protest the ban, while the White House defends the president’s actions. Even some fellow Republicans have publicly criticized the ban.

According to the poll, more than half—55 percent—of Americans disapprove of the temporary travel ban, while 42 percent support the measure. And 58 percent disapprove of Trump indefinitely suspending the country’s Syrian refugee program.

I’m sure Newsweek will put out a poll saying that the majority of Americans approve of the zombie lefties burning down Berkeley, CA because of their disapproval of President Trump, or better yet have a pool that puts the blame on the president for making the zombies burn down Berkeley.

Since we don't expect government to govern by popularity polls, who gives a rip if some Fake Poll tosses out Fake Numbers.

Trump campaigned on what he is now doing. Trump won the election. So........

This is like the polls that told us it was a 95% certainty that Hillary would win. That’s when we decided polls were based on nothing but bias.

Gallup lied during the election. Rasmussen closer to actual result. Gallup lies now.

This is the same “news” magazine that was sold for one dollar? Is that correct? What kind of news comes from an entity worth one dollar?
