A little over half — 51 percent — of Americans are “more confident” in President-elect Donald Trump’s ability to serve as president based on his actions in the past few days post-election, according to a national Gallup poll released Wednesday.

Forty percent of those surveyed described themselves as “less confident” in the president-elect in the November 9^th to 13^th poll, while nine percent had no opinion on it or were indifferent.

Gallup noted that the percentage who are “more confident” in Trump days after his election is similar to the percentage more confident in Bill Clinton (53%) and in George W. Bush (54%) after they won their respective elections in 1992 and 2000. …

I am one of these.

I am still in almost a state of disbelief at our good fortune that Trump won. Every day it just gets better and better.

The NYSlimes is doing its best to bring those numbers down by the absolute LIE it published that the Trump transition is in shambles. On Fox News this evening, Bret Baer informed the public that W took 3 weeks after his election before naming any cabinet members, Carter took 4 weeks, and Obama took 5 weeks! So what is the dang rush for Trump to have everything done in 8 days???

The rest of us had confidence in him from the beginning. But it’s nice to see people coming around to this realization.

Like polls mean anything now?

Pray America woke

That too, has brought me a great deal of satisfaction.

I became more confident over the last 6 weeks of the campaign season - once it was obvious he had put Cruz to bed, I went all-in for him and never looked back.

Seeing how so many are modifying their actions/rhetoric (both sides of the aisles with huge contrasts) should make any sane person very confident in his abilities. He has caused things to get put in motion that had been stagnating with the RINOs for ever. Can't wait to see how things progress once he's officially CINC...
