The latest figures include 39% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 40% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -1. (see trends)

August 24, 2020: Trump Approval 51%, Disapproval 47%. This makes the 3rd day that Trump has been over 50% approval in Rasmussen, that means it wasn't just a one good day of polling but a consistent Trend. And perhaps more importantly Trump is at only -1 in the strong approval/disapproval index that measures enthusiasm for or against Trump.

To put this perspective on August 24, 2012. Obama was NEGATIVE -17 in the enthusiasm index and 48%/51%

The country is closely divided and has been for a LONG time. These numbers actually make sense

That’s 98%. Virtually everyone has strong opinion. usually it doesn’t add up that high.

Yeah and right before the election it will be Biden 85%. The polls are all fake. They have to put these swings in them to keep them from getting stale. Polls are not real. They a manipulative tools.

If this is Biden’s post-convention bounce, he’s toast.

I can’t wait for the MSM weeping and gnashing of teeth when they see the legit polling on Trump’s convention bounce (that they won’t share with the public). They won’t be able to hide their emotions.

Rasmussen trying to keep his creds.

According to every single poll ever - everyone hates Trump, and he's always way behind at all times, except RIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION... then, like magic, his numbers start coming up for those pollsters (like Rasmussen) that don't want to see their creds flushed down the toilet.

Fraud polls like News Corp, ABC etc. don't care about creds, and will continue to run themselves into the ground for the cause.

Rasmussen is as big a fraud as the rest, he just does a CYA starting a few months before November.

I admit it’s strange how Rasmussen didn’t have Trump this high for most of his term, but has him at 51% two months before the Election.

Saw where a poll indicted Trump was only slightly behind in NY!

Time for the Dems to pull the plugs on Biden and try someone else.

Trump got a bounce after DNC convention, Dems in panic mode, going to be fun to watch.

He’s bounced around between 46 and 53 pretty consistently for 2 years in Rasmussen. Mostly 47-50. Occasionally dips down to 43/44% in down periods.

My theory is you won’t see that many Trump/Pence yard signs; but if you see an American flag flying, that is a Trump/Pence household. I see a bunch of flags out in my neighborhood.

It seems to me that the emerging increment of new support for Trump is due to weak pro-Trump sentiment seeing the Democratic convention and the dismal quality of that party and of Biden and Harris as nominees. For many soft Trump supporters and Trump leaning undecideds, the Democratic convention revealed that Trump is the best choice because the Dems do not offer an alternative.
