Trump favorability at 50 percent......

Because Putin knows he can play Trump like a fiddle. Just tell him he's smart & butter him up, and it's all there for the taking.

Trump really is such a joke. I never anticipated that his voters would defend him like they do. I always saw it as an "anti-Hillary" vote - but people are invested now.

So it's not because the POTUS colluded with Russia?

Why do you say that? Sounds more like a narrative than reality. Trump bombed Putin's Syrian assets back in the Spring. For all the talk about the bromance it seems like business as usual.

Putin literally laughs at us. Not because of Trump but because of the idiotic conspiracy theories.
 
So you think. Let's say you're right. How has he harmed America? Because of what others think? Really?

The market is good, the job market is good.

Try harder.

Well, you're on record: America's reputation is a meaningless thing, per you.

Good to know.

whut no. It is not business as usual. There are literally moves now to destroy the economy of Russias best ally in the middle east all the while stabilizing our own set of allies.

Thinking that Trump is doing the same things as Obama in the middle east would be a mistake.

You realize Trump had to repair our reputation, right?

Socialist/globalist Western Europe liked Obama because they were kindred spirits. China had no respect for Obama and went as far as to make him [an American president!] walk across the tarmac from Air Force One. Netanyahu couldn't stand him. He got nowhere with Russian and Putin. The Red Line that wasn't really a Red Line damaged us. ISIS had free reign until Obama was finally forced to concede Islamic terrorism wasn't on the run. And the Middle East allies like Trump better than they did Obama.

On the whole, our world rep is better now than it's been, probably since before Bush II. Many would argue, it's much better.
 
Poll: Trump approval rating sinks as Russian investigation heats up

Just 35 percent of Americans say the approve of the job the president is doing, while a staggering 64 percent say they disapprove, according to poll released on Friday conducted by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

It would be a mistake if I said that.

Honestly, Darth - all I do is shake my head at this stuff.

It's pure koolaid, nothing more. You'll come around to who Trump is & what he is currently doing to America. I always say, like the Iraq War - it will probably come long after the fact. But right now, you're invested & dug in, so the above is how you really see things.

It's not reality. That's all I can tell you. Trump is an international clown.
 
Just the "ISIS had free reign" stuff is easily refuted by the facts.

Under Obama, ISIS was nearly decimated. They lost over 60% of their territory, and thousands of fighters.
 
Washington (CNN)A Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday showed President Donald Trump's approval rating back down following a bounce in mid-April.

The poll, taken June 4-9, pegged Trump's approval at 36% compared to 58% who said they disapprove of his performance as President.
 
DONALD TRUMP'S APPROVAL RATING SINKS FURTHER AS DISAPPROVAL HITS RECORD HIGH

Considering former FBI Director James Comey testified last Thursday that the president was a liar, last week wasn't particularly great for Donald Trump. And this week isn't off to a great start for the president, either.

Trump's approval rating sunk to just 36 percent in the latest Gallup daily tracking poll released Monday. That's nearly the lowest point for Trump in the Gallup survey. Trump previously hit 35 percent approval on March 28 shortly after the Republican Obamacare replacement, the American Health Care Act, failed before the House of Representatives could even take a vote.

Trump's disapproval rating, meanwhile, has ticked upward to tie the president's record-high of 59 percent, according to Monday's Gallup survey. He previously hit 59 percent disapproval in the Gallup tracking poll on March 28.

They were decimated after he ignored them!

ISIS is arguably Obama's biggest foreign policy faux pas. I remember this crap. The narrative was that Islamic terrorism was on the run. But having to bomb 'JV ISIS' ran counter to the narrative, so Obama passed on it.

Trump would have vaporized them and saved who knows how many lives in the process. Trump cares more about defeating these barbarians than he does narratives.

It's one of the reasons I voted for him.

Look at the bolded. You know as much about fighting ISIS as you did about the coalition for Libya.

Seriously - you shouldn't talk foreign policy. Vaporizing ISIS would have vaporized many thousands of innocents.

They were crossing the desert in a convoy. Civilian casualties would have been minimal and maybe even zero.

given that its ISIS SOP to use human shields im sure it would have caused lots of casualties one way or another which is why it shouldnt even be a consideration.
