Does not mean for this poll though. This was the last paragraph of the article. One of those "fact" statements that are at the end of any poll research.

What exactly has he done other than role out a immigration EO that got struck down almost immediately as unconstitutional.

One resigned less than a month into his presidency. That MUST is a tentative MAY at this point.

There is nothing adequate about it if only 330 Republicans are included among the 1,323 sampled in total.
They weight the polling for demographic characteristics to achieve a makeup reflective of the electorate. Strict party identification in these samples isn't some all-controlling factor--just as it isn't in elections. Hence why a plurality of people identify as independent but almost always vote for one party or the other.

Well, they failed based on the party affiliations that were the result.

Interesting that the policy that has the highest percentage of folks against it is related to not using govt funds to kill unborn children.

Liberals

Pay for it yourselves. Start a Kill the Unborn charity. You can even use that name. You don't need government funds to help folks kill the unborn.

Like the handling of the economy, ridiculous fed overreach (bathroom laws), and actually enforcing our immigration laws.

Needs to stop tweeting likes he still a candidate.

95% approve so far.

I voted for him, but never really liked him. I just didn't want SCOTUS to swing to the left. However, I would like him so much more if he would stop tweeting. You want to tweet something like "Rolling out a new EO tomorrow. Tune in," fine, it's all good and I actually like that. Lashing out at every person who says something negative about him makes him look like a petulant child that is thin skinned, impulsive, and unable to think before he speaks.

So, they poll 5 out of 9 states that Trump lost, and only 25% Republican, and we're to believe this is valid?

How about they poll OK, AL, AZ, LA, TN and VA, CT, NJ, and CO, and have a 34% Republican/25% Democratic sample. Think the results would be different?

Pollsters are frauds.
