Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, will testify before the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday, Nov. 20, as part of the impeachment probe into President Donald Trump.

It's actually pretty amazing. I took a look at the RCP tracking history.

His approval on the day he took office: 44.3
His approval as of 11/20/2019: 44.0
His record high: 46.0 on 2/4/2017
Hi record low: 37.2 on 12/15/2017
He started the year at 42.7 on 1/1/2019
So his approval is up 1.3% from the start of 2019.

He's always been "underwater" except for maybe his first week in office. His highest underwater was something like -21% on 12/15/2017. His current underwater number is -9.4%.

Considering the media onslaught, his numbers are seem pretty amazingly stable to me.

Yep, it was pretty good! now, from what my wife says, we HAVE MORE coming next?

[ShackledNoMore]

Maybe today.

“He should fired all of them when he took office.”

Yes. Obama fired ALL ambassadors when he took office. ALL of ‘em. Trump should’ve done the same.

I believe Nancy has enough "no's" in her pocket to give her 220 or so - with all the GOP voting no. I think that's the game.

If they do all vote YES - I will do a roll down my hall and pop open a beer and toast to the democrats' demise. Trump is a fighter - and being the third impeached president is going to piss him off to no end. He will run a scorched earth defense like the world has never seen. And if the GOP ties his hands - then they will hang with the dems.

My wife says a Pentagon and a State official up next. :)

Republicans did not have the numbers with Clinton. Dems thought it was just about lying about adultery and voted to acquit. The vote total was 55-45 for acquittal mostly down Party lines all for 5 Republicans who voted to acquit. Everything is partisan in the end.

Clinton committed perjury/broke the law in denying legislation/law he signed in 1993 (Violence Against Women Act). He should of been convicted.

Just saw breaking news on FB that head of Burisma was just arrested in the Ukraine

Really? If that's legit, you need to post an article or at least get a link out there.

[Jamestown1630]

A debate tonight? Who knew?

[rollo tomasi]

Not sure what you are smoking, after Sunday's remarks, Nancy is all in.

Remember, Schiff's district is all extremely wealthy Hollywood donors who want Trump embarrassed, same thing with dems corporate donors.

[pnz1]

OAN, Posobiec, Gateway Pundit have it out there.

[Openurmind]

from the beginning I have always said that Trump had far too kind of a heart and was wrong for giving these folks the benefit of the doubt and chance to do the right thing for him. Unfortunately, folks just don’t appreciate acts of kindness like that in our culture anymore. The only ones who have so far were those he let out of prison early...

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Can you imagine the freakin’ Democrat Party 2020 POTUS Debate this evening....Talk about bad timing and a flop awaiting to collapse!!! Many thanks to Democrats Nancy Pelosi & Adam Schiff. Of course the Democrat controlled Media will not bring the subject of Trump impeachment up this evening. Shucks, folks...”Timing is everything!!!

If there is good news for the Democrat scum & vermin...not many folks will be tuned in to the debate this evening!!!

“No, Dems are all in.”

They’ll be going after Buttgigitty after Iowa’s poll numbers. Should be a fun watch.

[Openurmind]

As long as she is not lying to me... lol

No she was just on Facebook and that is they are saying, we have another round coming this afternoon.

No, she would not knowingly lie to me ever, and in return I have never lied to her. And yes she does take very good care of me. I am a very lucky man and really do appreciate her for who she is, my best friend. :)

[Jamestown1630]

I honestly wasn’t aware a debate was scheduled, and I doubt I’m the only one paying no attention.

[MayflowerMadam]

“The last thing they want to do is put this in the hands of the Senate republicans.”

That may be the reason they’re putting out the absolute worst witnesses for their cause. Their little schitt show is cute for now, but if it goes to the next step, it WILL be ugly for them. They know it. Maybe they’re sabotaging themselves.

[ShackledNoMore]

It’s a lucky man...

...who knows that he is indeed a ‘lucky man’....

Blessings.
