Trump Job Approval Steady at 49%
Gallup ^ | 2-20-20 | Gallup

Posted on 02/20/2020 9:23:31 AM PST by TexasGurl24

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Donald Trump's job approval remains elevated at 49% in the latest Gallup poll, the same as in the previous poll and up five points from an early January poll conducted before Trump was acquitted by the Senate in his impeachment trial.

As in the prior poll, conducted Jan. 16-29, the approval rating from the Feb. 3-16 poll reflects record polarization for a single Gallup poll, with 87 percentage points separating the ratings of Republicans (93%) and Democrats (6%). Forty-three percent of independents approve of Trump, the highest rating for him among the group to date.

If Gallup says 49% it’s probably 55% (or higher) in every state that he carried in ‘16.

Indeed. Regardless 49% is an improvement in the EC, because of the Democrat vote sink in New York, Illinois and Kalifornia.

Maybe I’m wrong, but it would not surprise me to hear that there’s a tiny but real reverse Bradley Effect among Democrats and independents who might end up voting for Trump, but may not want to acknowledge it to a pollster. All he needs is the same combined 100,000 vote margin for the Midwest and Florida, and it’s in the bag.

It would be much higher. Honestly 49% sucks given the strength of the economy. I guess you are content to have another nail biter instead of a landslide.

Yea it sucks because he never really got a fair shake. The fact that it is as high as it is is pretty amazing considering the attacks by the media. Imagine any Democrat candidate got as much negative reporting as he did. No one else would even have a chance.

Then they back it up to 47 and call it a new record.

Wrong again. If not for his tweets, everything he says would be filtered and twisted by the fake news.
