His approval rating is pretty much stagnant. From what little I saw of that boy scouts speech they apparently love the guy. Lots of applause... the youth love him.



That speech was a terrible indictment of modern parenting in the US. But then again, everybody knows young people are awful.

It's horrible, but to be fair: kids will sometimes applaud at anything that sounds good, since they don't have the experience or critical thinking to know when they're being manipulated. Kind of like grown-up Trump supporters, actually...

From what I can tell, T-Rump just hit an all time low on his favorite poll (Rasmussen). Why no mention of it on his tweets as fake news or fake polls is beyond me. /confused

T-Rump just hit -24 on Rasmussen. The lowest of ALL polls listed on RealClearPolitics.com.

All time low on that poll as well.

Will we get a tweet about that one since he claims it was the most accurate?

Not a chance in hell, lol!

62% disapproval...on a Rasmussen poll.

Even I didn't think it could go into the toilet this fast.

At this rate, by the 2018 mid-terms people will be ready to drag Trump out of the White House. Well, they are now, but moreso...

If his health care bill passes they will suffer an extremely rude awakening as massive cuts to health care spending is going to adversely affect health care employment which, if I remember correctly, is the #1 employment sector in WV. They aren't just going to lose their health insurance (as huge portions of WV are on Medicaid), they are going to lose their jobs.



Just kidding, they will find something else to blame it on I'm sure.
I've read that graph title and y-axis label several times now. Could you explain what the graph is actually showing? Is it simply percent of total non-farm workforce in the two sectors?

I started to type out what I thought that chart meant, then realized it was wrong. So I have no idea what exactly it's trying to represent, and I think whoever made it should feel bad for using what is seemingly two definitions for the same line, as well as two axis descriptors, none of which can be really ascertained correctly. I guess it's saying there's a lot more health workers, and a lot less mining and logging?

It's a percentage. I agree the axes aren't labelled great, but for each one it's the percentage of all workers represented in that sector. What the axes are saying is 100*(making this percentage into whole numbers) thousands of persons (in mining or health care) / thousands of persons (all employees).

Basically right now about 15% of workers are in health care and about 3% in mining.

33%.
Reports confirm that docsavage and buckshot continue to hold fast. /s

http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/president-trump-approval-rating-historic-new-low-poll

Quinnipiac University poll finds 61 percent of voters disapprove of the job Trump is doing in office, compared to just 33 percent who approve of Trump's performance.

This marks the president's lowest approval rating since he was inaugurated, according to the university.



It is also a sharp drop since the last such poll. In a survey taken at the end of June, 55 percent of respondents disapproved of the job the president was doing and 40 percent approved.
The recent poll also found a majority of voters, 71 percent, don't think Trump is "levelheaded" and 62 percent don't think he is "honest."

Lol! No. They will still vote for him just like they still vote for their congressmen who have an even lower approval rating.

Agreed. IMO, what really matters are those folks from the rust belt that narrowly tipped the scales in Trump's favor. They felt ignored and left out of the mainstream to the point where all Trump had to do was tell them what they wanted to hear over and over and over again, even if many of them knew what Trump was promising them was a big fat load of horse shit. That he actually paid attention to their needs, even if that attention was obviously originating from Trump's ass, was all they needed to know to give him the win.

T-Rump just hit an all time average low on RCP with 38.4 approval, and that's with multiple polls still not updated since mid July.

Again...I just can't fathom what exactly made this 10% or so of the people who *used to* approve switch to disapprove. Trump is acting exactly like he did before and during the campaign. There have been no surprises. He's a cheat, liar, fraud and incompetent in everything he's ever done, unless you count borrowing money and possibly money laundering. I guess it shows just how little a lot of people pay attention during the campaigns to the people they are voting for--they just see the "R" or "D" and check the box. Either that or they expected him to suddenly morph into a statesman once he got into office. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they don't like him. I don't get why they liked him in the first place, if the typical Trump stuff he's done and said in office have been enough to turn them away.

I think it may just be the slow trickle of the people who hated Hilary and were lukewarm on "anti establishment" so they voted for Trump as a protest/change vote or a "let's give him a chance" vote and are now realizing their mistake.

I agree 100%, I don't understand why it's falling because there haven't really been any surprises.

The only two things I can come up with is 1) maybe people really did think their lives were going to get better under Trump and 6 months in they haven't. 2) The failure of Obamacare repeal. That must be a stunner to everyone who drank the kool aid and believed that the ACA was all bad and only the evil dems kept it alive.

My thought is #2. The failure of Obamacare repeal means that the people who hated you for trying to repeal it still hate you and the people who wanted you to repeal it now don't like you because you're ineffective.

Trump reminds me of some middle aged woman in a tattered nightgown wearing dirty house shoes and curlers standing in the middle of a trailer park cursing out the neighbors because her dog got loose and attacked one of their cats and killed it.
