The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-seven percent (47%) disapprove.

The president’s approval rating has held steady at 51% since the end of last week, his highest level of approval since early March of last year, shortly after he first took office.

...

The latest figures include 38% who Strongly Approve of the president is performing and 39% who Strongly Disapprove.

In my opinion the most significant polling development of the past two weeks is the decline in the number of people who "strongly disapprove" of Trump. This is something the media are missing in their articles about how the Kavanaugh hearings fired up the bases on both sides.

All by design, Comrades. All. By. Design. ;)

Looking at the dynamics, I think the shift will continue unless something changes.

Rush Limbaugh pointed out the Wellstone Memorial.

They panicked back then when GW reached his peak in popularity. This looks like a repeat, probably with greater impact.

Obammy wishes he had that approval rating back in 2010. Oh well.

I think if you split the polling up into a state-by-state poll....people would be shocked in some red states (such as Alabama), Trump would be polling near 75-percent on the approval rating.

Five days since anyone has published a generic congress survey. Rasmussen should publish one tomorrow, but it’ll be based on data that’s as old as Sept 30 - Oct 4.

Obviously we here at Free Republic are up to speed on all things political but the average citizen just gets tidbits now and then that influence their voting habits. What they witnessed the last few weeks of the democrats can not be the message the left wants out there. People clawing at the doors of the Supreme Court coupled with the hate spewed by the likes of Mazie Hirono have turned off millions. Trump at 51% versus 47% is an omen of doom for the disgusting rat party

I don’t believe Haley’s resigning. She’s doing good important work. What else does she have to do?

RE ...”51% approve, 47% disapprove”...”

Gee... 51 to 47... that’s like, a MAJORITY, right???

And the Dems are ALL about “majority rule”, right???

So they should be THRILLED that we have “majority rule”, ...Right???

And like, since WE’RE “the majority” - Right? - we’re like... RULING them now... Right???

Wow. “Stroke of the pen, Law of the Land. Kinda cool”, to quote Little Georgie Stephanopolous.

Damn... ain’t it GREAT when a plan comes together?

Just sayin’, allkindasortalike... Right?

The best part is that democrats are filling their depends over this. Sorry, bastards, but your vicious attack on Kavanaugh showed the world that you democrats are worthless, mean-spirited, intolerant, hate-filled subhumans.

She’s always been a deep state GOPe Trump underminer. To give you an idea, she has rabid Never Trumper Jonah Goldberg’s wife as a speech writer.

Might she have been persuaded to take on Trump in 2020?

Was she caught as the anonymous Times op ed writer?
