Trump’s approval at 100 days lower than any president in at least seven decades

…and finally, if you think I’m cherry-picking:

Polling conducted by the Trump-friendly Fox News has brought little respite. A survey published on Wednesday found that just 38% of Americans approve of Trump on the economy, with 56% disapproving.

The Fox News poll found that 58% of respondents disapproved of Trump’s performance, and 59% disapproved on inflation. Just three in 10 Americans said they believed Trump’s policies were helping the economy, and only four in 10 said Trump’s policies will help the country.

If we had a parliamentary system, Trump & Co would be headed for a no confidence vote, 100 days in.

You won’t hear much about that poll on Faux News. It’s all about how we need to give Trump a chance, it’ll all work out in the end, no need to worry about your retirement because he is getting rid of the illegals and keeping trans people out of your granddaughter’s restroom at school while saving billions and billions in waste, fraud and abuse as he brings us world peace so we can pump more oil and get more eggs.

Polls don't matter. He can do as he pleases until Congress grows a spine.

The checks are in the mail!

Or, will be just before the midterms!

Yet even those who voted for him, most of them anyway, who were subsequently attacked by the Leopard of CFDT, find excuses to support him.

Still.

This is an ugly fight that Dems won't win, unless they engage, and try to win.

This won't be over in three years and x days.

How about a much more simple poll?

Trump sucks as a president and as a human.

1. Yes
2. No

I think these polls hit a nerve:



“they are Negative Criminals…they loose [sic] credibility”

…THEY ARE TRULY THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE. I wish them well…”

Wonkette handles the obvious lies:

John McLaughlin is a GOP pollster who has been so deeply in the tank for Trump for years that anyone to the left of Dick Cheney discounts it. Nate Silver gives him a grade of C/D. He’s about as highly respected in the industry as swallowing glass.

Also…

Would it surprise you if you looked at the crosstabs for these polls and found that the McLaughlin tweet Trump is referencing is wrong? Both polls had about an even number of Harris and Trump voters in their samples. McLaughlin assumes his audience of mouth-breathing wingnut nitwits won’t check, and he’s probably right about that, at least.

Also, because of the 100 days thing, everybody and their sister did an approval poll (as noted above, including Faux News) and Trump’s approval ranged (IIRC) from roughly 44 to 39%, which is the lowest in forever seven decades.

Trump really, really, really wants to be successful; there’s just one (Orange) person that keeps getting in the way.

polls only matter when it's election time.
