Trump's approval rating holds at 48 percent - Amazing?

Despite all the negative rhetoric, Trump still holding 48% approval rating!

FYI - That's about the same as Obama's rating at this time of his tenure in office.

I am really impressed with Trump's performance!

I wouldn't really call it amazing at this point. Trump has told a lot of people not to believe anything negative said about him, and it seems like they're doing what they were told.

I do find it sad and disturbing though.

@MistyCee Stats are wrong. Updated last night on Fox news, so you know I'm not lying. 42% is the new number.

@MistyCee As opposed to the liberal press telling a lot of people to believe everything negative said about him, and they say nothing positive, and it seems like those people are doing what they were told.

I find that sad and disturbing.
@4meAndyou Thanks. I'm really not that convinced that approval ratings mean all that much these days with the media situation being what it is, though.

The breakdowns on Democrats and Republicans might be a little more useful, but at this point, I'm thinking the most telling statistic is what cable news tv outlet people watch,since Fox, CNN and MSNBC seem to be covering completely different worlds.
@eli1601 I see your point, but you didn't mention Trump TV\Fox.

Honestly, as much as I dont like Fox, I think there's some benefit to someone besides the President reporting facts.

@MistyCee Fox and talk radio are a small percentage of the media compared to CBS, NBC, ABC, and all the major newspapers in the country.

They are very important, though. Otherwise there would be nothing but negative doom and gloom and Trump would be toast.
@eli1601 I think you're right about the toast part, for sure.

@eli1601 Wait a minute, is Fox not the number one news network? That's not small. It's the largest, apparently.

@MistyCee I posted todays link to realpolitics.com on this thread, so you can actually see the different ratings provided by the different news channels.

@daisymay Fox is the biggest cable channel. I don't believe their rating are close to over the air CBS, NBC, or ABC news.

@daisymay 👍️
@4meAndyou Thanks for the link.

I'm still not sure how helpful these are, though.
