In a polling double tap on the Democratic presidential ticket, President Trump for the first time has edged in front of Joe Biden in his bid for reelection and he’s reached his highest approval rating for the year.

The just issued Rasmussen Reports surveys put Trump’s approval rating at 52%, after a string of 51% marks. He reached 52% two other times this year.

And the pollster’s weekly race review released at noon had Trump nudging ahead of Biden, 47%-46%.

“President Trump has now edged to a one-point lead over Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the latest Rasmussen Reports’ weekly White House Watch survey. While statistically insignificant, it’s the first time Trump has been ahead,” said the poll analysis.

It added, "The race has narrowed over the past two weeks. Biden had a two-point lead last week, but that survey also marked the first time Trump had edged above 45% over the past two-and-a-half months. Prior to this week, Biden has bested Trump in every weekly survey since White House Watch began at the beginning of July."

It’s “Backup Quarterback Syndrome”.

It’s said that on a losing football team, the most popular player is the backup quarterback.

Until he actually starts, then people realize why he was the backup quarterback.

Who gives a **** about tell all stories about a guy that you’ve known for 1400 days or more already?

you find out something about someone before you start dating them it might stop you from dating them.

if you’ve been with that person for 4 years and know them well and you hear some filth about them it is not going to end your relationship.

Especially when the person telling the filth hates your partner.

Good analogy.

Trump Approval is HIGHEST since his first week in office!!!

Friday, September 18, 2020

The latest figures include 44% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 40% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of +4. (see trends)

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 53% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-six percent (46%) disapprove. The last time the president's job approval reached a high of this number was in September 2019.

That "strongly approve" +4 is HUUUUGE. He's literally only had a couple of DAYS in the entire last 3 1/2 YEARS when he was "above water" in that count.

Common sense dictates that the "Shy Trump Voter" % MUST be significantly larger than in 2016 ... the truth is, with the Democrat cheating plans, combined with 99% of all polls being a DNC adjunct, we just don't know.

Wish there was a few more honest polling outfits to confirm Rassmussen ...

I hear Pelosi has promised to impeach Biden, if it will improve his approval rating.
