HAMDEN, Conn. (WTNH) — The Quinnipiac University National Poll has released their recent findings on president Barack Obama and president-elect Donald Trump.
According to their polls, American voters have given Obama his highest approval rating in seven years with 55-39 percent voters approving of the job he has done. The same voters disapproved of way that Trump has been handling the position 51-37 percent. Polling of these same voters also found that 45% of voters believe that Trump will be a worst president, 34% saying he will be a better president, and 15 % saying he will do about the same.
However, the polling center has found that 52-43 percent of Americans are optimistic about the next four years with Trump serving in the Oval Office with 47-31 percent believing that he will help improve the economy.
“President Barack Obama leaves the White House a lot more popular than Donald Trump is as he crosses the threshold and saddles up for the most important job in the world,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll. “President-elect Trump gets points for strength and intelligence, but voters’ feelings about his personality traits, empathy, leadership and level-headedness, are headed south.”
In terms of Trump’s presence on social media, people who were polled believed that he should close his twitter. In fact 71-26 percent of voters ages 18 to 34, say that Trump she close his account now that he will become president.
Connecticut governor Malloy had been adamant that Trump should delete his account saying “140 characters may not be enough to tell Donald Trump just how much Americans want him to knock off the tweeting.”
Nice name calling. You're quite the deep thinker aren't you?
Lol! I started laughing immediately! Don’t need a laugh track!
When you find that out you will know the results without reading.
Millions of eligible Democrat voters may have stayed home because most election polls predicted Clinton would easily win the election.
That's unlikely to happen with me.For years Jimmy Carter was,to me,the worst President of my lifetime.That changed in late '09/early '10 to the Community Organizer-In-Chief.Carter has also been,to me,the worst *former* President of my lifetime (IIRC Coolidge was alive when I was born).But I fully expect *that* to change within a year..or maybe even less.
Fake polls from fake souls.
In J-school, ideology is more important than grammar.
Quinnipiac. ROTFL! Didn’t they say Clintoonie in a landslide? #fakepoll
I bet half the respondents actually believed Trump was already President.
Fake polls just like the election polls. Who do these pollsters think they are kidding?
same poll that showed Hillary winning in a landslide?
lol
sorry, fake poll.
Well if I am not mistaken, even Mr. Obama has a Twitter account. He will sure have more time for it.
I learned all I needed to know about polls in 2016.
Hand that Q poll over here, I need to light my fireplace
Same polls that predicted Hilary’s landslide? hahah, we don’t believe you.
Quinnipiac’s final poll on Florida showed Clinton 46% and Trump 45%.
Trump won Florida 49% to Clinton 48%, which was just 1% outside the margin of error.
These polling methods have been proven to be a sham. Not point in even bothering with them.
The real people know what’s what.
