WTF do we have people keep on spouting on TRUMP's anemic approval rating?

TRUMP is at like 50% to 48% in Rasmussen & alot of other polling has him at 45% to 48%

That is better than Obama's!!!!!!!!!

Let's not forget Obama had a drooling media where 90% of news coverage on TRUMP is NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

The GOP is always assuming they will lose. If they don’t then they work harder to ensure they are right the next time they assume they will lose. When they win, I honestly think many of them are disappointed. In fact I’m sure they were when Trump won and I’m sure they are secretly hoping they lose big now so that (a) they don’t have the pressure of actually living up to their promises and (b) they can finally say “see, Trump is a disaster” and not look like 100% certified fools.

More bull shiite from the left. Which Republicans? Consultants? Consultants get paid to down play their candidate’s chances. They do this to have it both ways. They can say I told you so if their guy really does lose and I dragged him over the line if he wins.

Republicans hoping to hold on to their majorities in state legislative chambers across the country are nervously eying President Trump’s anemic approval rating, concerned that a wave of voter anger could undo years of gains

This is FAKE NEWS intended to create uncertainty.

Stuff like this, and fake “Democrats are winning big” polls are what emotionally driven low information voters require to enthusiastically swarm the voting booths. Gotta rev up the enthusiasm. Makes no difference if any of this is true. Then, after the votes are in expect stories about “How did we get it so wrong?”. Hmmm...

In related news, Hillary will defeat Trump by over 100 electoral votes, and could even win Texas!,

The Hill like other lefty press got their memo just inside the 100 day mark. Wall to wall, 24/7, ignore any positive news. Trump has no base. His numbers don’t count. If you are an independent, you must hate him and run to the democrats.

They won’t cover the world as it is because if they did, the left would be finished.

List for GOP-e
1: Listen to voters instead of donors.
2: Show America where the Left wants to take America.
3: Stop listening to the Never Trump gang.
4: Rinse and Repeat
>

Missing the Constitution (enforcing/following) and actually SHRINKING govt (getting it out of our lives).

Lying vs. repealing O’Care, $1T+ deficits and NOT supporting immigration enforcement\wall, etc. would seem to indicate they DON’T wish to remain in the majority.

Black approval of Trump has doubled over the past year.

That’s all you need to know.

Here in Michigan, just about every single commercial republicans have run include very high levels of associating with PDJT. It’s almost a “who can be for Trump the most” competition.

These folks can take comfort in their fake polls if they want.

The machinations of a deluded, rotted-out, insane, lib mind.....
Liberalism (communism) is a chronic, no-cure mental disease that rots out the brain.
