POLL: Trump’s Current Approval Rating Highest Ever, Stuns MSNBC
The Daily Caller ^ | July 23, 2018 | Mike Brest

President Trump’s approval rating jumped up to 45 percent, the highest it has been throughout his presidency, according to a new poll released by the Wall Street Journal and NBC. The poll left an MSNBC panel shocked Sunday night by the improvement.

“President Trump has shown throughout his campaign and polling what I took away from the 2016 election is the American people authenticity,” said Kevin McLaughlin of Cogent Strategies Principle. “May not like what authenticity is, what he’s saying or how he’s doing it, but he doesn’t back down from it. When he goes out and does these events, I will call them, it actually helps him in fly over country.”

“He defies political gravity,” he continued.

“So is he right when he basically says he ‘can walk down Fifth Avenue and shoot people’ and people would still stand with him?” asked host Kasie Hunt.

According to the poll, President Trump’s approval rating was up one point from the month of June, at 45 percent.

88 percent of the Republicans surveyed approved of the job the president is doing. (RELATED: Poll: A Staggering Number Of Republicans Approve Of Trump’s Helsinki Performance)

“President Donald Trump’s approval rating edged higher during a week in which he faced withering criticism following a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, signaling that he is positioned to weather the latest controversy sparked by his unusual brand of politics,” the Journal said.

The survey was conducted from July 15-19, a day before the president’s highly criticized press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin. It spanned past the length of the controversy. While the president received heavy backlash for his comments, it clearly was not reflected in his approval rating.

It is my belief that even for people who are lukewarm about Trump or even oppose him mildly, that the chorus of cat calls from the media is getting so shrill, and so over the top so as to become self-defeating. That’s okay. I’ll take it

Stunning the idiots at MSNBC has to rank up there with Hidebeast’s IQ and the number of holes in a three hole brick.

The media and establishment’s reaction to the Trump/Putin meetings is stunning anti-war younger Bernie peeps. They believe if Trump didnt win then there may have actually been a war with Russia under Hillary. I think this whole thing may have actually made the bighest crack yet in the anti trump millennial.

I didn’t believe Trump when he said we will win so much we might have to tell him stop. But man, President Trump was correct. We will win he said and today, we have won many battles as Trump the leader.

How can Trump have high ratings? What about kids at the border, what another the meltdown over Putin, what about Ocasio-Cortez and the rise of socialism, what about the meltdown over judge Kavanaugh?

You mean to say that these liberal meltdowns are not resonating with middle America?

The more the kooks shriek, cackle, act up, float stupid balloons, riot, fake beheadings, and protest, the more people love him for standing up to the sheer idiocy. We’ve never had a president who has done that before. It is SO refreshing to have a POTUS not of the political / ruling class. Even though he is a gazillionaire, he is one of US.

With all the media attacks over the 2 years, the MSM are baffled why TRUMP is NOT polling in the 20's but mid 40's!!!!

and we all know TRUMP gets underpolled by about 5% so he is really at 50% when he won at 46%!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Isn’t it amazing that he THRIVES on the unhinged abuse? And at 72 years old. I’m in constant awe of the man.

"...Trump’s approval rating edged higher during a week in which he faced withering criticism..."

Tell me you're joking.

What has he done that wasn't met with "withering criticism?" When has President Trump uttered a phrase, announced a decision, or proposed an action that wasn't immediately, loudly and repeatedly decried as "The End Of The World" by virtually every mindless Clinton puppet alive?

Perhaps I'm not surprised that the TDS crowd hasn't tired of hammering this long-dead equine, but America was exhausted with it long ago. It has gone from mere silliness to pure evil.

Trump is blessed with absolute imbeciles for enemies who just don't, and apparently never will, know when to quit.

They hurt themselves far more than they'll ever hurt him or his presidency. The simple fact is, they still haven't even laid a glove on him.

LMFSWPCAO !!!

The ululations of the press are falling on deaf ears.

This in spite of 24x7 negative coverage by the MSM. No wonder they are in a no-s**t panic, they see their influence and control evaporating before their eyes.

The more they are shrill, the more they think everyone thinks like them. They become embolden to take up positions very outside the mainstream, like no ICE, benefits for illegals far above anything the rest of us can get, no borders, etc.

And most people I would wager believe we spend too much overseas on things like NATO, and yet the Dems seem to be advocating continue to spend more on NATO.

It was 45% once before and went down a little (1% maybe) and now back up again. Probably Rasmussen.

"new poll released by the Wall Street Journal and NBC."

Oh, I see. That's even better--a lefty survey and still 45%. Good news.
