MAGA!
Why do the liberal media polls say he is below 50? People will continue to doubt honesty in the big media.
In the wake of Brexit, the Italian vote, and the election of Donald Trump, if 2016 taught us anything about polls, it is that they are totally untrustworthy. So I refuse to believe polls whether or not they purport to show what I would interpret to be good news.
Like Arnold in the Simpsons movie, Trump was elected to lead, not to read. I suggest that we avoid the temptation to worry about polling until the midterms roll around. I would argue that Reagan we great not because he did what was popular, but because he did what was thought impossible and made it popular after the fact.
If you left out LA it would be in the mid 60%s
This is exactly opposite of what Fox News reported this morning. What gives???
Riight...do not trust polls and HE HAS NOT DONE THE JOB YET.
He’s not even on the job yet but people are rating him as if he is, and his approval is rising. He’s worked harder leading up to his inauguration than Obama has his entire eight years.
Is President-Elect a job? Does he have specific duties? How does one judge a President-Elect to judge?
How can he have an “approval rating” when he hasn’t started work yet?
This is mearly a favorable rating. Although 56% is low for an incoming President, it’s good to see Trump isn’t at the 20% level the media likes to say he’s at.
Did the Russians take down freerepublic? :)
I agree .. they have been more consistent.
At this point, the cooked-in Media slant is patently obvious to almost everyone. Thus, the People recognize the fact that the Establishment and Left (but I repeat myself) are routinely and fervently attempting to undermine—in any feeble way they can—this Revolution and its President.
The diabolical schemes of the Enemy didn't work before the 2016 election (though it did have an effect), and it won't work now that President Trump has taken office (though it will have an effect)...
It is the President's job—and ours—to convince more and more of the People—by both word and deed—to join this movement and share in its fruits.
Polls polls polls. If the sampling is more in line with reality, then this could be more accurate. The ABC poll and CNN poll were doing their bogus sampling they were doing during the campaign. We all know DJT approvals are higher then what they’re reporting. I think we need to stop worrying about polls regardless.
Who really cares what his approval rating is so soon after being sworn in. Give it all time.
I posted this last year, when our Never Trumpsters were flooding Free Republic with fake polls daily/weekly.
They lied then, and they are still lying!
Many of the so called pollsters have been Democrat Operatives for decades going back to when they predicted Carter would beat Reagan.
Pollsters today are like the buggy whip makers in the early 1900’s, facing economic devastation because they can’t poll many people. They are in a losing battle with social media and cell phones.
Now, they are trying to compete with cell phones, social media and the problem of less landline phones.
More and more people on both ends of the age spectrum do not have landline phones. They only have cell phones.
Does anyone with a cell phone ever answer any unknown numbers and specifically any 800 #’s?
Probably not.
We use no more robocalls on our two land lines. Zero pollsters have gotten through since we started using no more robocalls, 2 plus years ago.
None of our voting age relatives have received a call from any pollster this election. That is 20+ Trump voters.
Then, there is this on social media versus polls:
Social Media Patterns Show Trump Is Looking at a Landslide Victory

Current polls show the race for President is much tighter than it really is. Ann Coulter warned us years ago in her bestseller Slander that Democrats and the liberal media always use polls to manipulate and discourage conservatives from voting. Thanks to social media there is more and more evidence that the polls are way off and if things stay as they are, Trump will win in a landslide!
It’s evident that, Hillary has a hard time filling a Union Hall or high school gym while Trump regularly turns people away from his stadium and arena venues.

That will not last long. Buh-lieve me, he’s going to do some things that “they” are not going to like, bigly.
Where is a good place to keep informed on President Trump’s successes so far? I mean executive orders, cabinet appointees and such.
