Trump rebounds after polling slide

He's not even about policy goals, idjit. Nothing he says matters. He is a con man of the highest order.

And you have been completely duped, because you fall for shite like "little Marco" & guffaw while you drool.

What exactly do you think I fell for?

Go back to election time. Read what I posted. I had one singular reason for supporting Trump. The US Supreme Court. Could Gursuch end up being a liberal squish? Could be. But Hillary didn't get to replace Scalia

Everything else is lagniappe.

Just because I don't join in every one of your circle jerks does not make me a fan boy. I still would prefer Ted Cruz. But, I had a binary choice. I could not sit back and know that I could have stopped that cunt from being in office.

You have concocted these scenarios in your brain that limit your ability to see what is really going on.

It is why you keep being wrong over and over and over again.

Where is the GDP growth going to come from? So far it hasn't been too spectacular.

Annual GDP growth never exceeded 3% under the last administration.

As to any future increases, we'll have to wait and see, won't we?

Or are you hoping that America will suffer economically so you can claim Trump failed?

You still don't get it. It isn't about liking him or not liking him. I am interested in achieving policy goals. I knew the entrenched GOP establishment would be a problem. I predicted it.

Now that being said, I do love that he spins you in circles.

One has nothing to do with the other. I guess complex thoughts ar difficult for shallow thinkers like you

That is how you come up with stunning analyses like "he needs to take all of the toss ups".

:0) So you think liberal heads are exploding over 2.5 - 5 points .. which still gives Trump the LOWEST poll numbers in American history at this point in his administration.

More likely that your head exploded over the 'wonderful' 2.5 news.
 
once the fake news/"da russians" die down ( and assuming Congress gets something done -a big if) his numbers should come back up

you're kidding right?

the left ran an entire presidential campaign on "Trump is bad", spent millions of dollars running around the country with no message other than "Trump is bad"

"never heard anyone on the left saying "Obama won & you lost" ??

except Obama himself saying Elections have consequences as if to say shut up and get over it

don't write brain dead opinions when you are wearing what you bitch about

seriously this whining ever going to stop?

Good lord. The RIGHT ran with an anti-trump message also. The RIGHT hated trump like poison. RIGHT pols refused to endorse trump even after he got the nomination. RIGHT pols have been fighting trump since day one. Only completely brain dead trump toadies think trump was the GOP's favorite son. You clowns better get your own house in order because your infighting put that abomination in the WH.

fter months of declining poll numbers, the president’s approval ratings have stabilized — and even ticked up slightly — over the past month.

Following a low of 39 percent in the POLITICO/Morning Consult poll last month after his controversial reaction to the violent protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, Trump is back at 43 percent in this week’s survey. Other surveys show similar results: Trump bottomed out at 35 percent in Gallup’s weekly tracking poll in late August, but ticked up to 38 percent last week. Trump is at 40 percent in the RealClearPolitics average, up about 2.5 points from his low-water mark last month.

Trump’s popularity still remains historically low for a first-year president. But since his August polling nadir, Trump has earned positive reviews for his responses to two major hurricanes, Harvey and Irma. And while polls showed his decision to wind down the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program — which shielded some undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children from deportation — was unpopular, Trump’s subsequent nod to bipartisanship by negotiating with Democratic leaders in Congress may have helped stanch the bleeding.

It’s impossible to attribute Trump’s small uptick in the polls to any or all of these events. His recovery is modest at best: His 40 percent approval rating still lags every other elected president in the era of modern polling at this point in their first terms. But the data suggest that Trump, now at the eight-month mark of his presidency, has at least arrested the gradual decline that plagued him for the first seven of those months.

The body of polling is fairly limited over the past few weeks, so it’s not completely clear whether Trump has won over some of the Republicans who defected after Trump’s Charlottesville response or the GOP’s failure to advance health care legislation in Congress — or if he is bringing in new converts.

Some polls suggest Trump’s slight bump is the result of Republicans and some independents coming home. In this week’s POLITICO/Morning Consult poll, Trump was at 80 percent approval among Republican voters — up from 73 percent at his low-water mark. Among independents, Trump has bounced 5 percentage points, from 35 percent to 40 percent. Trump’s approval rating was virtually unchanged among Democratic voters, however.

better. after the ridiculous "you didn't condemn them enough" farce of Charlottesville.

Americans are too STUPID to understand DACA is unConstitutional -
and Trump is pressuring Congress to do something..

Get some GDP growth - which means tax reform and of course Congress won't -but that would do it.

Republican support is 80% -that's a bare floor for partisan number -but still a floor.
Of course Dems are still mindlessly "resisting"

Polls are nearly meaningless at this point since we're in the dead space between the last election and the midterms. But pollsters have bills and need to eat too, so there's that.

That said, there was one number democrats should pay attention to: the +5 movement amongst independents.

Reason being, Trump's support numbers and the anti-Trump numbers might as well be set in concrete. In fact, if democrats got a do-over of Trump vs Clinton there's no good reason to think the electoral college result would be any different. I think even liberals are aware of this, at least intuitively, hence their disdain for the electoral college.

So clearly, independent numbers are the numbers to watch.

And since Charlottesville [which the left succeeded in making about Trump, even though he had nothing to do with it] Trump has been singing the independents tune. Imagine the lengths the media would have gone to in singing accolades to Obama had the Obama administration handled two successive major hurricanes with no glitches. Trump has proven to be an effective administrator and since independents, by definition, don't have a dog in the fight, they'll be more apt to 'see it', as it were.

Trump has reached across the aisle to democrats. Independents love that sort of thing; especially, if it's done in good faith. If Pelosi and Chuck [you] Schumer don't similarly act in good faith, independents are going to pick up on that.

And I get the idea Trump is aware of this. The man is consistently underestimated by his many enemies, but you don't pull off what Trump did without above average politics instincts.

He's also tamed down his Twitter account. He hasn't handed the left a Twitter-gift in weeks.

At any rate, the numbers we need to watch are the economic numbers. +3 GDP will all be ensure Trump a second term.

Because...independents.
