1. Winning!

[truthisfreedom]

2. So much winning!

Greatest disapproval numbers ever!

[Bleacher Creature]

5. He was right. I'm sick of all the winning. NT

[SunSeeker]

6. LOL

[Gothmog]

3. These are horrible numbers

[Rural_Progressive]

19. Yes they are

There are still that many people who are supporting this worthless piece of excrement. Says a lot about the state of our society.

[RKP5637]

27. And that is far more concerning than Trump! How anyone can support this guy is

beyond me.

[Matthew28]

4. In a fair world

The democrats would take at least one house of congress next year. Sadly, this isn't a fair world as it is clearly rigged.

[GreenPartyVoter]

28. So very true!!

[ffr]

7. And this with a stock market near record territory

Imagine any bad economic news, whether it be indicators or a stock market correction.

10. Consumers are already in fact pulling back out of fear health and insurance costs will skyrocket

Retail sales have been perfectly flat since Cheeto took office - with a 1% decline in real terms since January.

Real retail sales were growing an average of 2.5% a year under Obama, and 3% in his last year in office.

[BigmanPigman]

13. It can't be all based on the stock market

since his loyal fan base doesn't look at that. They care about their own wallets. When it directly effects them then they'll bail on him. This is true for every president in the past 45 years.

[underpants]

14. Good point. Every other indicator is going the other way.

[Bengus81]

30. I've seen plenty of October Market crashes,this one is headed that way....

This market is being pumped up on air. If there was something solid to point to for these nearly daily highs then that would be that,but this huge climb ONLY because Butternut took office is phony.

People--including myself with money in IRA's or a 401k are going to get hurt bad when the air goes out of this paper bag.

8. But junior told me on TV last night that we all loved his dad

These polls are fake news! Sad!

[Matthew28]

11. The national polls

in the 2016 election were as good as normal. The 1,000,000 dollar question is how is he doing in PA, Wis and Mich? We need to get those back or Win Florida with at least one of them.

[Downtown Hound]

15. My post was sarcasm.

I'm well aware of how the polling situation played out.

[House of Roberts]

9. So the undecideds are jumping off

on this side of the fence.

[rurallib]

12. can't understand why it is less than 67%

WTF is the matter with these people?

[harun]

25. +1

[Stuart G]

31. Takes time..it will get there...nt

[ffr]

17. Dayum! Doesn't Rasmussen lean conservative? n/t

[Still In Wisconsin]

20. Put it this way: this is like 61% of Yankee fans saying they disapprove of Derek Jeter.

Not at all good. In fact, it's SAD!

[sammythecat]

22. Good way to put it

and I don't even follow baseball.

[bellmartin]

32. Hey, I'm no Yankees fan, but hey, have a little respect for Derek Jeter!

[Still In Wisconsin]

33. OK let me put it another way:

This is like 61% of Royals fans saying they disapprove of George Brett

[bellmartin]

35. Now we're getting warmer. Not because as a Royals fan, I do have to admire Brett's play...

...but because, sadly, George Brett is also a right-wing, Trump-supporting, Limbaugh-befriending asshole.

On the other hand, Royals All-Star second baseman Frank White is the good Democratic County Executive for Jackson County, the county most of Kansas City is in!

My real point is that it's almost never fair to make a comparison with another human being for Trump. It always diminishes the other person.

It's like Godwin's Law. But at least Hitler liked dogs.

[red dog 1]

18. Kick for exposure!

[benld74]

21. TOO LOW

[Grammy23]

23. But still moving in the right direction.

Soon tRump won't be able to brag about the polls---any of them. Whaddah ya bet he is sad? Boo hoo. Cry me a river.

[SergeStorms]

24. I smell a tweet brewing.

All about the "fake" polls, and how he's thinking of ordering a Federal investigation into the pollsters who are trying to "discredit" the BEST administration in history.

"We're getting so much done, it's amazing. Every day we're setting new records for legislation crossing my desk. It's ridiculous, these polls.....trying to discredit the most amazing president since Lincoln. Sad." "Why aren't they polling crooked Hillary? How much legislation has SHE passed? Obama must be behind this. He's a Muslim, you know. His radical Muslim agenda is really starting to show through. Sad. Very sad."

Or something very close to that, anyway. I think I covered all the usual suspects Trump blames for his failures.

[njhoneybadger]

26. How the fuck can the worst POTUS ever not have higher disapproval numbers

[Bengus81]

29. Trump now at 62% disapproval as of today on Rassmussen........

Even they got tired of hiding the TRUTH...............

[ProgressiveValue]

34. You're doing a heckova job there, Brownie.
