    Same polls that said without a doubt Hillary would win in a landslide I presume.

    Trump's approval rating after one year in office is on par with Obama's, despite Obama getting 80-some percent good press compared to Trump's 10%.

    Not really, no embarrassment here. Where have you read that I wanted Hillary for president in the first place? I might have obviously preferred her over trump but that was a long shot from 'wanting' her to be president.

    One, HRC did kick Donald's butt in the PV. He barely squeaked through with 77K votes in three states. Then he had one of the small inaugural crowds in forty years.

    Obama's rating was at the end of a year of Great Recession, while Trump's was at the end of the Obama recovery year.

    It will only get worse for Donald.

    Obama was at 50%. Trump is at 39%

    Happy anniversary, Mr-r Trump! :party:

    As for the approval, well, draining the swamp is no easy task. There are all kind of nasty creatures in there - crocodiles, alligators, leeches, snakes, piranhas, etc - fighting for their life.
    And the swamp witch, did we mention the swamp witch? Oh, she is hilarious. :grin:

    The Rasmussen daily tracking poll of Jan 18 has Trump at a 45% approval and a 54% disapproval rating. Rasmussen polls likely voters near evenly split between Republicans, Democrats, and Independents with a slight edge to Is and Ds over Rs

    Rasmussen is always the exception that proves the rule that Trump polls 5 to 12 points lower.

    The compilation of polls on Trump's approval rating (day 365) has the following:

    All polls - 39.5% approve 55.5% disapprove (fully 10.3% behind Obama on day 365)
    Polls of likely or registered voters - 41.3% approve 54.1% disapprove
    Polls of adults - 38.6% approve 56.1% disapprove

    Rasmussen daily tracking poll - just in the last 11 days the range is 42% approve to 46% approve.

    No other way to put it - the very worst polling ever by a president at one year. And absolutely no surprise to me, pathologically lying buffoons generally don't poll well.

    Did you really expect that for 12 months prior to the election, post after post of poll after poll was put up by the left saying "Trump is done!"...

    And, we would just let the same crap happen without being called out after the polls all turned out to be utter bullshit?

    This will be my response to any 'the polls say X' for the next 3 years. The polls mean squat, are presented by biased organizations, only interested in using their platform to push their agenda. Essentially, **** those pollsters.

    He is President Trump to you. For at least the next 3 years. Don't you forget this. He wiped the floor with the leftist ilk and he ends 1st year having wiped out the entire 8 years of Obama's legacy.

    You are wrong. The polls said Clinton would win the PV by 3% (she won by two) and that he would get hammered overall (ELEVEN MILLION MORE voted for all the other candidates combined than tRUmp). He is a despised, unworthy President.

    And a year later in office, he is more despised.

    Essentially, **** the far right that deny reality, because it will come and bite them in the ass.

    He is tRUmp to the majority of America, and don't you forget this. And he has done nothing of what you claimed. tRUmp and his supporters are losers.

    Take away the millions of sub 85 IQ Hispanics and Third Worlders in California and New York and a majority of Americans support president Trump.

    Nah, the majority of America kicked the liberal $ss out of all branches of the government and reduced them to a bunch of hysterical imbeciles whining about President Trump's low approval rating.

    It's not that he CAN"T get a budget passed. Both houses of Congress were set to pass a compromise budget and Trump outright refused to sign it. He refused to sign anything that doesn't give him everything he wants and doesn't give Democrats anything. That is what he said he plans to do, and if it means shutting down the government, he doesn't care.

    The compromise budget plan has enough votes to pass, but not enough to overturn a veto, because too man Republicans refused to vote for it because Trump and McConnel were threatening to withhold party support for anyone running for relection in 2020 if they voted to pass it.
