Trump Keeps Growing In Approval! Must Be Real Frustrating For Press And Democrats!


PRESIDENT TRUMP HITS HIGHEST APPROVAL RATING EVER IN WSJ/NBC POLL

“Treason” narrative falls flat on its face

President Donald Trump has hit his highest approval rating ever in Wall Street Journal and NBC News’ latest poll, despite unprecedented negative media coverage.
In the same week Trump was widely accused of “treason” by hysterical media pundits, deep state operatives and Democrat hacks for daring to question the same intelligence agencies which lied about WMDs in Iraq, Trump’s overall approval rating moved up 1 point to 45 and those saying they “strongly approve” of the job he’s doing jumped 3 points.
“The more Trump gets criticized by the media, the more his base seems to rally behind him,” one Democratic pollster told NBC News.
This is what getting BTFO’d looks like:
Trump hasn’t even begun to fight back. He told Tucker Carlson last week he’s open to declassifying evidence of the deep state’s crimes in the coming months (the president can declassify anything for any reason without any restrictions).
NBC Snooze and the War Street Journal both decided to bury the lead in their coverage of their own poll.
NBC:
WSJ:
Regardless, here some of the highlights from NBC News:
…the new NBC/WSJ poll finds the president’s approval rating among Republican voters at 88 percent — the highest of his presidency — and 29 percent of all voters strongly approve of his job, which is another high for Trump in the poll.
[…]And 50 percent of voters support Trump’s handling of the economy, which is up 8 points from October.
Note, the economy is the top issue going into midterms:
…asked to name the top one or two issues that will decide their vote in November, a combined 36 percent said the economy and jobs; 33 percent said health care; 27 percent said immigration; and 20 percent said guns.
A month ago, the top combined responses were health care (38 percent), the economy and jobs (37 percent), guns (25 percent) and taxes and spending (24 percent).
The Democrats’ lead for the midterms has shrunk from 10 points to just 6 points:
The NBC/WSJ poll shows 49 percent of voters preferring a Democratic-controlled Congress as the outcome for November’s midterm elections, versus 43 percent who want Republicans to stay in charge.
That 6-point lead in congressional preference for Democrats is down from last month’s 10-point margin, 50 percent to 40 percent, though the difference is well within the survey’s margin of error.
Independent voters prefer a Democratic-controlled Congress by more than 20 points, 48 percent to 26 percent.
And Democrats continue to enjoy an enthusiasm advantage heading into the midterms: 65 percent of Democratic voters have a high level of interest in the upcoming elections — registering either a “9” or “10” on a 10-point scale — compared with 49 percent of GOP voters.
MSM fake news has convinced Democrats that a few million spent by the Russians on Facebook and Twitter ads won the election for Trump where Hillary’s billion dollars could not:
But other Russia-related numbers have moved: 65 percent of voters believe the Russian government interfered in the 2016 election (up 12 points from a year ago); 41 percent say the interference affected the election’s outcome (up 8 points from a year ago); and 30 percent think Democrat Hillary Clinton would have won without the interference (up 6 points from last year).
Not covered is most voters have a positive view of ICE, 38-37, which Democrats are demanding be abolished.
If the top issues are the economy, health care and immigration, that doesn’t sound very good for Democrats.
Tax increases, Obamacare 2.0, and open borders to drive down wages is not a very compelling platform.
That said, the media has been driving Dems into a frenzy with 24/7 fake news and hysterical propaganda telling them Trump’s making concentration camps for kids and wants to carry out a child holocaust, so it wouldn’t shock me if they had a strong turnout. Also, Google, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter have begun mass censoring conservatives and purging all their search results of any and all alternative media.
Americans need to understand this is the future Democrats want for America.
If average Americans had any idea the third world hellhole these radical leftists are going to create if they seize back power every last voter would show up to the polls and vote Republican across the board.

Trump Approval Numbers Keep Climbing!

Trump’s Average Job Approval Reaches Highest Level In A Year

How is it possible? says the Never Trumper to himself.
No, actually, I think this is easily explained.
It’s not out of the blue, remember. Two weeks ago I noticed that Democrats’ lead on the generic ballot had shrunk to its smallest level in nearly a year, due mainly to Trump’s improving job approval. After slogging along at 38-39 percent for most of the second half of last year, POTUS had crept up to 41-42 percent. Not a world of difference, but a few points can mean a lot in the midterms.
Today he’s at 43.5 percent in the RCP “poll of polls.” The last time he was that high was 363 days ago: May 4, 2017. He fired James Comey five days later and went splat. It took him this long to fully recover, something he’ll hopefully bear in mind the next time he gets the itch to can Bob Mueller.
That’s a pretty dramatic little spike over the past week or so. On April 28 he was at 41.9 percent, in line with where he’s been for most of this year. The next day he leaped four-tenths of a point. The day after that, six-tenths. The day after that, another four-tenths. Today he’s up another two-tenths. What gives? If 59 Michael Avenatti appearances on CNN can’t tank Trump’s approval, what are they good for?
Simple answer: The Korean peninsula suddenly — if only momentarily — looks more stable than it has in ages and Trump is being given lots of credit for it. The already famous handshake between Kim Jong Un and Moon Jae In at the border inside the DMZ came on April 27. That day was filled with chatter, and not just from righties, that Trump would deserve a Nobel prize if the peace between North and South stuck. Some liberals went so far as to admit that Obama would be praised to the skies by global media if a momentous detente like that had happened on his watch. Getting Kim to calm down, however briefly, is the biggest achievement of Trump’s presidency so far and there may be more to come. His own summit with Kim might go well; a formal end to the Korean War might be in the works. And for once, Trump’s belligerence on Twitter looks strategic and crafty, the “madman theory” of foreign policy at work, rather than weird and scattershot. “Little Rocket Man” may have concluded that POTUS is nuttier than he himself is and that the nuking of Pyongyang could be very much on the table. Time to make nice. If, if, if, if North Korea were somehow convinced to denuclearize peacefully (which is unlikely in the extreme, granted), it’d be the biggest foreign policy win for the U.S. since the end of the Cold War.
And all of that followed a successful state visit in the days before by Emmanuel Macron, which gave Trump serial opportunities for dignified presidential photo ops for the better part of a week. With the North Korea news then following, how could his job approval not go up?
More importantly, can it stay up? If he parlays the Kim/Moon summit into something more significant and durable, I think his baseline approval really might move north a bit and stick. Not everyone who rates him unfavorably does so because they dislike him. Some think he’s just not fit for the job. Brokering an end to the Korean War and a period of quiescence by the North would naturally lead those people to rethink. But if the Korean peace process falls apart or if POTUS does something newly weird and distracting, like trying to fire the Supreme Court or making Kanye the new head of the VA or whatever, it’ll be back down the tubes. To some extent the direction his numbers go isn’t up to him, but to some extent it is. And if he goes the right way, rumors of the Democrats’ House takeover might be greatly exaggerated.
