50 Days From the Election, Trump's Disapproval Rating Is the Same as the Last 2 One-Term Presidents

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

As the election approaches, President Donald Trump's disapproval rating is on par with the last two one-term presidents—former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter.

With 50 days until the election, the latest disapproval rating for Trump based on Gallup polling stands at 55 percent. In early September 1992, Bush's disapproval rating stood at 55 percent as did Carter's in September 1980. Both incumbents went on to lose their reelection bids less than two months later.

Comparatively, former President Barack Obama had a disapproval rating 11 percentage points lower, at 44 percent, in September of 2012 ahead of his reelection. Former President George W. Bush had a similar disapproval rating of 45 percent at the same point in 2004, while former President Bill Clinton had a disapproval rating of just 31 percent.

Notably, other polling organizations show different disapproval ratings for Trump. The current FiveThirtyEight average shows the president with a disapproval rating of about 52.5 percent compared with 43.1 percent who approve. Conservative firm Rasmussen Reports, which the president has often touted publicly, shows 51 percent of Americans approving of the president while just 48 percent disapprove. The most recent Fox News poll shows the opposite percentages—51 percent disapproving while 48 percent approve.

1. God, I hope it works the way it worked in the past.

I'm not confident it will though with Trump doing everything he can to rig the election while constantly accusing Democrats of rigging it.
He's preparing for a major attack on our electoral system in an attempt to turn it to his personal advantage.

2. Big difference. Those other presidents weren't able and willing to cheat at Trump's level.

4. W cheated. I don't believe he legitimately won in 2000 or 2004.

3. It's disgusting that it's not much, much lower n/t
