That's good news. Mainly because I'm certain you believed Hillary would win in 2016.

That truly is fricking amazing!

Contrats President Donald J. Trump!

His tweets are sometimes shitty, but he's the best thing for the country right now. I think he's been the best president since when Bill had us riding high. Bill changed though.

Both pussy grabbers... is there something to that?

Libs are so triggered that they can’t even handle something as irrelevant as trump’s approval rating. What the frick is wrong with these people?

Why do you reference Rasmussen instead of the RCP average?
rasmussen is the only polling company now that has daily tracking. I was interested in how it would trend since the shooting.

He has improved a net 8 points since then.

His RCP avg has improved since then, as well. But that is because of the inclusion of this poll.

You post Rasmussen on here every day. It is clearly an outlier poll, as the Real Clear Polities listing shows.

[link=LINK ]

And if the Rasmussen poll is ~8% above the average now, then it likely would have been ~8% below the average for Obama.

I've asked this before, but do you not understand that even if the daily poll is skewed too much (it probably is), you can still track the way it trends? Just subtract your 8%. You still get a net 8 improvement since the shooting.

Also, thanks for linking the RCP average. It shows his approval rating about 5 points higher and disapproval around 4 points lower than for msot of 2017.

Being at -11 when you spent your first year at -16-18 is significant movement.

I bet you pick your nose before you stir the punch with your finger at parties.

True. The numbers are going up. But using Rasmussen, not only for current, and, basically doubling the effect for comparison, is not very realistic.

I’d also credit an administration that was new to politics and outside the establishment, getting a better understanding of how to run a government vs a business

No. But I do kinda like poking big, slow-witted bears.

It's a great way to get mauled. IF that's your thing though...
