He's dropped sixteen points since his Inauguration.


Our goal is make him as popular as .......

[Eliot Rosewater]

1. Green snot

[DemocratSinceBirth]

3. I was going to say anal warts, but that's too much for an original post.

39% during his honeymoon is really bad.

[dalton99a]

2. We must resist.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

4. 39%

Sad.

[dalton99a]

5. Seriously idiotic.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

6. The literature suggests 30% of Americans have authoritarian tendencies.

That might be his floor, but it might be lower because even authoritarians will be put off by his incompetence.

[NewJeffCT]

30. Bush Jr

got down into the mid to upper 20s.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

37. Not in his first hundred days. Thump's bad numbers during his honeymoon are unprecedented

[hrmjustin]

7. Why the hell is his approval so high?

How can people be that stupid?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

9. Nixon had higher approval ratings during Watergate.

The floor didn't fall out until the Summer of 1974.

[Bengus81]

25. Rasmussen has it at 46%

Even that RW bunch are seeing the effects.............

[Demsrule86]

8. Thanks for this...I am so tired of the resistance is futile

posts...resistance is working and will continue to work...we must stay united and fight...great news!!!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

10. These numbers are unprecedented for a president during his honeymoon.

[Demsrule86]

13. That is true...I don't remember any president with such bad numbers.

And the GOP is getting nervous ...an unpopular president can end the gerrymander...there are 25- 30 house seats where Hillary won.

[RockaFowler]

11. The graph looks horrible

:large

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. My inference is the latest big dip is a function of Chump Care being unveiled.

There are lies and there are lies, but promising to cover everybody and then coming out with a health care plan that will leave twenty four million people uncovered is bound to ruffle some folks feathers.

[mvd]

14. Agreed

Trump was always going to govern from the far right. I am amazed that more couldn't see that. Thanks for the thread! Glad he is under 40%.

[DK504]

34. Chump Care. Nice one.

[ailsagirl]

15. Guess he's no longer scarfing the junk food

I prefer him heavier

[mcar]

16. Those are stunningly bad numbers

Let's keep 'em dropping down.

[titaniumsalute]

17. Even Rasmussen has him at 46% approval - 53% disapproval

[titaniumsalute]

18. When Congress starts seeing under 40% approvals they may start getting panicky

GOOD!

[Dopers_Greed]

22. They are already getting panicky

He's starting to hit similar the lower end of W's numbers, which allowed the Dems to clean up in 2006 and 2008.

Even people like Issa and Cotton are already starting to crack.

[titaniumsalute]

24. and if Paul Ryan is being attacked by Brietbart...

Either he will get REAl panicky to self-survive or he'll really become a boot licker. We will see.

[Posting Anonymously]

19. What a Riot (I'm hoping)

Yeah, 39% approve. Wait til the current business cycle enters the predictable fulminant phase (LOL) and all the debt that the peasants have taken on since the last collapse in 2008 are no longer "serviceable" and, as a consequence, things come crashing down again. This system we have, of perpetual boom and busts, is just pure chaos. By the way, is there such a thing as required, mandatory reading on this list? If there is a mandatory requirement, can somebody please post Albert Einstein's essay, from the 40's, titled, "WHY SOCIALISM?" In 6 pages Einstein absolutely demolishes CAPITALISM, but of course isn't that the same guy that changed our entire understanding of physical reality? People who "believe" in capitalism are such mindless morons, I'm just dripping with contempt. Let's have a revolution and take back our LIVES!

Back to work....I hear somebody coming. Click.

20. It looks like a big drop when their Health Care plan/scam was announced

My very nice, but unfortunately Republican, mother has only one thing to say about it. "They had 7 years to come up with a plan and they haven't done ANYTHING!" She is incredulous. I, on the other hand, can't believe she couldn't see through their lies 7 years ago.

[StevieM]

35. I agree. You can see a clear correlation between the health care plan being announced and Trump's

poll numbers tanking. He had actually been inching slightly upward before the plan's roll out.

[rufus dog]

21. Let's hope some of his supporters will catch on and drag him into the low 30s

91% were still supportive of him last week.

[33taw]

23. We need to mobilize against the republican representatives and senators.

We can stop what is happening by voting in 2018. Without a change to the house and senate we will continue to see these absurd policies and practices.

[The Sand Reckoner]

32. Exactly..these numbers mean nothing

until and unless they translate into seats gained in the House and Senate in 2018, and Trump being deposed in 2020.

[Ilsa]

26. And this is Gallup. Will Quinnipiac be even worse for him? nt

[Saboburns]

27. Just wait until he bombs some muslims in a couple of weeks.

The deplorables will be rapturous as well as a few independents. Bombing and killing Muslims in the Middle East does wonders for an American President's approval numbers.

[kerouac2]

28. as popular as his "university," his steaks, his football team, his airline, his NJ casinos...

his vitamins, his vodka, his water...

[beachbum bob]

29. when we have trump down to 32-35% approval..conservatives will be sweating bullets

they are starting to sweat now...but it will be in context of 2018 election....I doubt trump will fall much below 32-35%

[Hassin Bin Sober]

31. It looks as bad as his numbers during the election.

[trotsky]

33. Remember, there are a significant number of people to think...

that as long as Trump is pissing off liberals, he's doing a great job.

36. is rcp still hovering in the upper 40s, though?
