Obama approval rating at 55%, Trump at 37%, new poll says

[cubby]

lol golden shower

Will be called fake news as it is negative about the God Emperor. Proof that they do not truly accept Kek, the true god emperor.

Lol, yeah - Trump has his answer to every story about him for the next 12 years.

[zenkai]

Just like right wingers who mockingly ask if people on the left need safe spaces. That criticism cuts both ways.

If I lived in Chicago I would be seeking a safe space.

People still trusting polls?

[ezgeze]

Obamas approval is high because people generally like him as a person but they hate his policies. Also, the MSM has been gushing over him for absurd reasons over the last 8 years (sexy pecks when he was topless on the beach anyone?). Why would I say this? Well, Obamas policies gave us the exact opposite, Trump. Now Trump on the other hand has lower approval ratings because he is for the most part disliked personally and the media and their pompous arrogance/bias cannot help themselves (recent perverted fake "intel" currently in the news is just one example) but he won because his proposed policies (mostly promising to dismantle Obamas executive and illegal actions that bypassed congress)

I don't need to like the president personally, its the policies that will matter in the long run.

Don't really know why people who don't live in a city feel like they are an expert on what life in that city is like.

And another person who doesn't understand how polls work.

Whoa simmer down Clinton fan. It's okay.

This the same poll that gave hillary winning the election with 98% of the vote?

the national polls had her at 3% up, and guess what. she won by 2.2% so they were right.

state polls in battleground states had hillary up by less then 3% with a 3-5% margin of error, so technically they were right.

(This poll is from before the "goldenshower-report".)



Seems like Trump-supporters are becomming a minority again. Could it be also becourse of the fake-news from Russia is drying up?

I didnt vote when Obama was running, I did give him an approval rating though...I did also vote for Trump as HRC was the only other option. So this is flawed. Alot of people that voted and liked Obama voted for Trump and you cant give a approval rating until he is in office....

[Zyster]

For the most part President's start out increasing one winning the election and after month roughly in office their approval rating drops. Considering Trump isn't even in office yet and his approval ratings before all of this has only been increasing, I will assume, based off history, this to hold true here also. Though may not be unreasonable to expect a drop to this % roughly given the historical evidence that basically presidents all drop after actually entering office. Anyways, fake news.

Yes you can!

DO YOU APPROVE OF TRUMP Y/N

That's all this is. An opinion poll of the guy. Most people think he's terrible. The question isn't 'is Trump a good president'.

People still trusting polls?

Yes. The election polls showed Hillary with a 3% lead and she ended up 1% ahead on election night. The polls were off 2% which is no more than most elections historically.

Even assuming a 2% error in the last poll that would put Trump at 39% and Obama at 53% which is still worlds apart. This also seems to be in line with their ratings in the last 12 months. It's not necessarily new data. Obama's been above 50% for some time and Trump has been unprecidentedly low favorability for some one running for office.

The numbers make sense, there's little reason to not trust this information.

You're right, heads of US intelligence brief the POTUS and PEOTUS on fake news for funzies, and also implicate a British spy in the process.

And his policies are just as shit.
Glad i'm not American.

[Berengil]

The best president since JFK has high approval ratings? Despite the 8 year long constant rain of sht from the GOP trying to smear him?

How about that.

Then its pointless

[Nihilanth]

This is it folks, Trump is done!

[LaserSharkDFB]

Fixed that for you....

Please explain what metric you're basing this on.

[JohnBrown1917]

OH yes, because polls have been sooooo reliable lately

A bunch of them, ye.
