Happy President's Day 2025: "Trump's Approval Rating is Only Better Than Trump's"

Happy President's Day 2025: "Trump's Approval Rating is Only Better Than Trump's"​

We're seeing people talking about and saying "Trump's Approval Rating is Only Better Than Trump's." And we hear them saying "The only new president Trump outperforms in the polls is himself." Trump seems to be so proud of himself with his ratings "on this his fifth Presidents’ Day in office."

Even though Trump remains a bottom-tier member of a certain group, he has never been one to pass up an opportunity to engage in Truthful Hyperbole, exaggeration, and calling any downside a win (see his comments on the Plaza Hotel sale).

There’s been reporting that Trump is pleased that a recent CBS News-YouGov poll showed his approval at 53 percent. His average is still below 50 percent, though, and that 53 percent is lower than Biden’s average approval rating at the same point in 2021.​

But one finds solace where one can. For Trump, it’s outperforming 2017 counts.​

​

YouGov has also tracked Trump’s favorability (that is, views of Trump himself) and approval (views of his presidency when he’s been in office) since early 2016. You can see that his favorability ticked upward after the 2016 and 2024 elections and that his initial approval rating now is higher than his initial approval rating eight years ago. You can also see that his approval rating is already starting to slip downward.​

​

​

Trump’s second term has deviated from his first in a more significant way: He’s approaching the job as though his power and his role are largely unconstrained. To do so, he insists that he won the 2024 election in a rout (he didn’t) and that he has a sweeping mandate for the actions he’s taking (he doesn’t). A president who wants to assume the mantle of speaking for the people, though, must necessarily insist that the people agree with his actions. So a poll showing 53 percent approval becomes a hallmark of popularity.​

​

Ranked against past presidents not named Trump, though, quite the opposite conclusion must be drawn.​

we will post a few graphics next

A Prog and their literature on statistics. And then you see how they screwed things up.

How to critique during a holiday without being mean-spirited, nasty, childish, trollish, Trumpish.

One month into Trump’s second term, many feel buyer’s remorse

As we pause at the one-month mark, the question isn’t whether the president is engaging in maximalist radicalism. The question is whether it’s working.

www.msnbc.com

These polls show some very interesting, and totally expected numbers, as the morons who elected the criminal Trump are now having second thoughts.

Pew Research Center 47% approve 51% disapprove

Quinnipiac University 45% approve 49% disapprove

Gallup 45% approve 51% disapprove

Washington Post-Ipsos 43% approve 48% disapprove

CNN 47% approve 52% disapprove

Reuters/Ipsos 44% approve 51% disapprove

So, they are all within the same ballpark and overall show a national feeling of strong disapproval of the job Trump is doing. Of course he ain't doing nearly as much of the job as Also President Musk is doing. But, having Musk on board does permit Trump to hit the links with alarming regularity and cost to the taxpayers ( like his Super Bowl and NASCAR race vacations). Be patient folks, the midterms are coming; a major congressional shift would put the brakes on the Trump express. Bigly!!!

All the USAID agitprop fake nooz, that lied to your straight faces about Kammie the Kumdumpster's possibility of winning, now giving you poll numbers on Trump's "approval".

And you fucking chunkheads still believe them....

How much money did USAID pay Reuters to lie for them again?

I'll take 49.2 given that all the "polls" by the usual subjects were getting paid with taxpayer money to promote the dems.

I don't suspect they liked their rice bowls knocked off the table, kicked out into the street, and run over by an asphalt roller.

Kick them out and his approval numbers by the sane is well over 50%.
