Trump’s approval rating Up Again-at 59%

Trump's approval rating is up again.

Rasmussen reports his approval rating is 59% up again. Must be that following through on his campaign promises is a very popular thing.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 59% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-one percent (41%) disapprove.

Posting from bitter and defeated sanctimonious neo-liberals commence.

This will most certainly cause triggered responses.

I love how on CNN.com they're asking if Trump has kept his campaign promises. It hasn't even been a week. Obama went almost a whole term before doing much of anything about any of his promises (still never kept several). Seems like Trump has already done more in less than a week than Obama did in his first 4 years.

It will only go up

He's actively carrying through on his campaign promises he was elected on, which is almost unheard of.

He will get a bounce, for sure, at least for a while.

Obama left him in a really sweet spot as far as the economy is concerned (for the majority of the US) and especially compared to what Obama himself received courtesy of Bush.

My personal expectation is that you will see another bout of massive wealth extraction over his term or terms until it all breaks again and the left will have to fix it...again.

That's is the exact reverse of the UK political cycle.

When checking the current events over the last week there has not been a time where theres not fresh super content stories. Ill bet the reporters for the Whitehouse haven't worked this hard in many years. The msm is finding it hard to find fresh content to criticize him on. Some of their content is just idiotic and reaching while flailing about to find anything to say.

I think you will see some of them reverse course as they see their numbers tank.

Obama and NAFTA is all you have to say.

a reply to: AboveBoard

Maybe, but the numbers tell the story of it being good for very few.

We will have to see if he can get industry to create jobs so people will start to participate in the traditional work setting.

a reply to: AboveBoard

He left him with nearly $20 TRILLION in debt, a bitterly divided population, massive trade deficits and challenges critically thinking people would not want to be faced with, I wouldn't in any context call that a "sweet spot".

Obviously the 59% aren't doing what the media wants them to do.

Although he is keeping his stump promises which is a new sight to behold ,I am more interested in what his bigger geopolitical moves are going to look like .The US found themselves at a dead end approach to world dominance .I think that a re-grouping to a new approach was in order and for that a new kind of leader was needed to quietly pull it off .Trumps climbing numbers are a important part not only for the home front but for none Americans to be a part of .

I am thinking he will carefully build on this and may even make it to a second term but I think their will be someone in the wings (maybe a Tillerson) to take the lead in 4 years , maybe in 3 1/2 . By then the UN will be a foot note in the history books and Europe will look a lot different then it was or is today . The far east will be a different structure as well .The South China Sea dispute wont end up as a war but as a collective agreement among those countries .

As long as he continues doing the things he promised I expect his numbers to rise.

The groups that are protesting in toddler meltdown fashion are not the majority.

People want jobs, money in their pockets, and to feel safe. Doesn't matter how they vote, these are the things they need. The election this year was turned into a reality show and it will take a little while for everyone to realize we've moved on to the next season.

It leaves mo to wonder what the powers that be will do. Is this as serious as it seems? Or is this just a hick up?

The news media is acting like their slanted rotting garbage is the only game in town. Just like a 1985 Chevette verses a toyota corolla .

The powers that be will ride the populist wave and pretend to be for it and for Trump until said time that they can screw over everyone to their benefit.

In my opinion.

Well it can't be denied .... he has certainly hit the ground running.

And it's only week 1

The left believes that what you described is the perfect condition for a capitalist country to be ripe for socialist picking. So that is how they want things here.

Rasmussen polls traditionally show high numbers for Republicans.

A different search will yield conflicting results so not sure what to believe.

Poll: Trump’s opening weekend gets lowest approval of modern era.

The first measurement of President Donald Trump’s job-approval rating shows Americans divided over his performance in his three days in the Oval Office.

Trump’s approval rating in the Gallup survey, conducted last Friday through Sunday, opens at 45 percent — the same percentage of Americans that said they disapprove of Trump’s first weekend on the job.

In fact, Trump is beginning his presidency with the lowest initial approval rating in the modern polling era, according to Gallup.

I don't recall the right having too much of a problem with Bush and the WMD wars.

Obama has broken it off and broke it off good. $20,000,000,000,000 is a 4'X4' flaming bag of crap in your porch and you don't have a foot.
