Why is President Trump so unpopular ?

President Donald Trump is the most unpopular president , and it's not even a close fight.

Presidents generally have had an average approval rating of 53 percent since 1938 to 2018, according to historical comparisons compiled this week by Gallup. But Trump's approval rating dropped to 37 percent this week, down from 39 percent in December.

Trump is the least popular president in modern history, according to FiveThirtyEight. "Trump’s early-term unpopularity is unusual. In the decades since World War II, the average first-term president before Trump had an approval rating of 62 percent on his 175th day in office," the site wrote in July, when Trump's approval rating was 39 percent.

This is reality for the leftists. Polls are worthless, and predictions are worthless. When the left is putting out information, it's worthless. You have your feet firmly planted in an alternate universe. Trump is doing great and he is well liked by normal people. The noisy people are answering the polls. Nothing coming from the the hysterical anti Trump mob is anything close to the truth. Have fun.

@puck61 He's well liked by white males over 40 and evangelicals. Given that he's gone out of his way to insult everyone else, it shouldn't be surprising that a lot of people hate him.

@puck61 'The noisy people are answering the polls.' - That's clearly nonsense , and you know it. The pollsters aren't choosing leftists ffs and they certainly arent all wrong. Gallup's most recent poll results are based on telephone interviews with roughly 1,500 adults and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

@WoodyAq More alternate universe stuff. Trump is doing great. Enjoy.

@RodionRomanovitch People with a solid history of being wrong are being wrong again. Play back all the leftist polls and predictions concerning Donald Trump before he became president Right up to practically the last minute!. It's priceless. The left no longer seems to have any grasp of reality at all. The hysteria has completely stolen their sanity and rationality. Just a bunch of Baghdad bobs, who seem to think that repeating lies over and over again will magically cause them to become truth! It's not going to work and it's amusing, but somewhat sad, that you are all setting yourselves up for another round of weeping and wailing and temper-tantrums.

WoodyAq · M

@puck61 no, pretty sure the polls were taken in this universe.

The whole "pussy grabbing" incident hurt him with women, and praising the fine people carrying swastikas reduced his support because Nazis are not universally liked and respected.

And the list goes on....

@puck61 😉Well said brother!

puck61

@WoodyAq Nothing. Tales told by idiots full of sound and fury but signifying nothing. Go ahead and look at what the propaganda machines that are called cable news said over and over just before Trump became president! I would be embarrassed, but they just carried their shame with them like it was the Arc of the Covenant~! Enjoy your alternate universe.

WoodyAq · M

@puck61 I agree that if you ignore all the stuff he actually says, he could pass for smart ...

Spitbak · 56-60, M

@WoodyAq 🤔I believe all that did was start a manhating trend with all the celebrity witch hunting going on! Stats can and are being manipulated as well as the votes! Thank Mr. Gates for all that shit. Which I'm curious as to why Trump had all these personal meetings with Gates ,Kenye West and many others after he won the title! Hence is why I trust NO ONE! Too many agendas with nothing including any real people whatsoever! It's always been about queens and kings and the worldwide slave state! So, EVERYONE can whine about this guy or that but nothing will ever change for the best like it hasn't ever in the past! One ultimate truth we can ALL rely on....DEATH AND TAXES...PERIOD!

puck61

@Spitbak They have a bunch of Youtube videos of people on CNN and MSNBC and late night talk show hosts, Obama, and others laughing their confused little heads off about the insane idea of Trump being president of the United States, complete with polls and statistics and pie charts etc etc..... It's a Goebbels propaganda effort, and it's just way over the top, but people far too often don't bother looking into things. They just buy what ever is being sold. In honor of the pseudo liberals I want to invent a new word; " Hypathocy" or 'Pathocrites" Pathocrites! Pathetic hypocrites!

Spitbak · 56-60, M

@puck61 😉They live.....CONSUME, CONFORM, BE A GOOD SLAVE!

WoodyAq · M

@puck61 I notice that at no point do you address the things Trump has actually said ...

puck61

@WoodyAq Hey, if it's up for grabs, it gets grabbed. Big deal! That is such a trifle, I can't believe it gets any attention at all. Something normal that happened decades ago? Oh my gawd! Stop the presses! The stuff that the pseudo libs are calling "racist" I completely agree with before they put their wonder-spin on it! Trump is just up front and honest about stuff. Stuff that Hillary has said and done makes Trump look like St. Francis of Assisi ! Just pathetic hypocrisy from the pathocrites!

WoodyAq · M

@puck61 up front and honest! 😂 He was recently telling people he thought the tape, which be admitted was real, was fake...

Honesty is not one of Trump's virtues.

puck61

@Spitbak I got my sun glasses, and so do most of the people in my neck of the woods.

puck61

@WoodyAq Don't you guys ever get dizzy from all the spinning? All I can say is 'enjoy your alternate universe' and continue to ignore the fact that everything is so much better, and black unemployment is at an all time low, and we actually have a pro American in the white house.

WoodyAq · M

@puck61 As I said, if you ignore the stuff he actually says (as you are studiously doing), you might get a favourable impression of him.

Spitbak · 56-60, M

@puck61 😉Good to know our army grows!

RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M

@WoodyAq Puck rarely addresses the substance of any questions about Trump (he knows to do so would be suicidal).

You'll probably get as used to his rants as the rest of us in time.

puck61

@WoodyAq @RodionRomanovitch I've addressed everything I need to. The anti Trump mob is living in an alternate universe. Unfortunately their hysteria is hurting this country, so they aren't as entertaining as they are disturbing. Enjoy your outrage and alternative facts. I have other fish to fry.

RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M

@puck61 But you haven't addressed my question. If all these things you claim are true then ( as well as a booming economy , record stock market and low levels of unemployment) then WHY does he remain so unpopular with the vast majority of Americans ?

puck61

@RodionRomanovitch Because those polls are bullshit. Just like all the statistics, polls, and pie charts that the propagandists were using until Trump was elected . I was watching that crap yesterday. Like I said, they were wrong then, but instead of being embarrassed they started pedaling down hill. The insanity of the left is going to create such a back lash that we might be in danger of going too far right! You guys out -d0 yourselves every day! Conservatives sent a message to the pseudo liberals with Donald Trump, but instead of heeding the message, you doubled down on the insanity! It's amazing!

RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M

@puck61 So he's not really unpopular with a majority of Americans then , it's just more fake news ?

puck61

@RodionRomanovitch Yes. The polls and stats from the left are as worthless as the polls that caused all the raucous laughter from the pathocrites just before their laughter was silenced by Trump's election. Yes. Leftist news is fake news. Right now journalistic ethics is a thing of the past when it comes to the Media Trump derangement syndrome, and unfortunately all the clueless rebels eat it up like candy. Coffee shop hipsters who wouldn't make a pimple on a real liberal's butt!

RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M

@puck61 I wasn't aware that Gallup was a leftist organisation.
