The President with the lowest overall average approval rating in history is......

[U2Edge]

notice that all of these polls sample around 1000 people----------out of 330,000,000. anyone who has taken even a first year statistics class knows that a sample that small is virtually meaningless.

I fully understand that the pollsters "claim" that their samples proportionally include every demographic in the country, but come on, use some common sense. there are probably more than 1000 different demographic groups in the 330,000,000, e.g. how many native americans doctors are included? I am quite sure that there are some in this country, how many mixed race Chinese/Africans? How many bed ridden Russian immigrants? I could go on but maybe you understand how ridiculous the polling thing really is.

Polls today are designed to influence public opinion, not to report on it.

Well you can dispute the polls all you want. You won't be able to dispute the election results in November 2018 or November 2020. What will be your explanation of excuse then?

Democrats are going to lose both elections....

It will be funny to read your explanation in 10 weeks when the Democrats take back the House Of Representatives.

 

[U2Edge]

I recall the entire 8 years of Bush we were told everyone hated him, I think I recall his rating being in the %30 zone also.

In the final months that is where his polling numbers were. But his overall average over 8 years came out to 49%, just a tad higher than Obama at 48%.

The gallup poll has been measuring Presidential approval ratings since the 1940s, longer than any other company or organization involved in polling. Here is how the Presidents rank:

OVERALL AVERAGE APPROVAL RATING WHILE PRESIDENT:

John F. Kennedy - 70%
Dwight D. Eisenhower - 65%
George H.W. Bush - 61%
Lyndon B. Johnson - 55%
Bill Clinton - 55%
Ronald Reagan - 53%
George W. Bush - 49%
Richard Nixon - 49%
Barack Obama - 48%
Gerald Ford - 47%
Jimmy Carter - 46%
Harry S. Truman - 45%
Donald J. Trump - 39%

After nearly 2 years as President, having an overall approval rating of 39% is not a good place to be at. It may go up or down from here, but as time goes back, its likely to solidify around this number of 39%. Donald Trump has never had even a daily or weekly approval rating above 45%. There has never been a President with such a low probability of being re-elected based on the latest data.

After nearly 2 years of badgering from the FAKE NEWS, 90% of Republicans still love President Trump and 10% of Democrats say he is doing a great job. Paul Krugman, the liberal economist's math that would make President Trump 100% in favor of...….God you liberals are such stupid people.

Trump Approval with GOP Voters Hits 90% -- Overall Approval Still Higher Than Obama at Same Time in His Presidency

Oh, and by the way, he still hasn't been impeached, which all you whiney ass liberal have be calling for... Bwaaaahhhhhhaaaaaaa….

98% of Republicans.

But the number of people who still consider themselves Republicans has shrunk dramatically. Usually around 33% it is now down to 25%. Getting a higher percentage of approval among a shrinking population is nothing to brag about.

Fake news. The same idiots that did that poll are the ones that said that Crooked Hillary would win by an EC landslide.

Bringing up Hillary or Obama will not save Trump from Impeachment, or save the Republicans in November, or Trump in the 2020 election, if he is still around.

Who cares. The polls we have found out are crap, and the media is complicit in an orchestrated propaganda campaign. They rely on ignorant people listening to them for their news. The non ignorant no longer pay them heed.

Exactly. These folks have learned nothing from the last election. Hillary was what, 90% assured of winning then lost miserably, yet they still cling to polls.

[BookShaka]

One has to wonder what his approval rating would be if the media hadn’t made it their obsession to destroy him. One has to wonder if the media had put the same amount of effort to destroy other presidents like they’re doing for Trump, how their approval ratings would look.

19 months compared to full terms, except JFK. Lol

Well, might as well start comparing now since Trumps figure is likely to drop. Its also not certain that Trump will finish a full term.

Yeah, that and the Moon might fall into the Pacific.

 

[BookShaka]

Both numbers are completely meaningless.

It is beyond stupid to think that an average of completely different, largely competing political polls have any basis whatsoever on the actual approval of a president. It is also beyond even that level of stupid to then take that average each day and again average them together over the entire term of a presidency.

Scroll up to the link I posted. The AVERAGE, is the average of all the polls taken by GALLUP since Trump became Presidency, compared to the overall average of Gallups polls for each President!

Still nonsense.

The average of a poll that was not even considered during the 2016 election is meaningless.

Gallup is an outlier poll btw.

There is not another Polling organization or company once they averaged all their polling data for Trump that would not have Trump at the bottom like Gallup does or at least close to the bottom.

39% is not “the bottom”.

Trump won the election with a 38% approval rating.

His polling data as President is far more relevant in his chances at re-election in 2020. A sitting President with 39% approval is not going to be re-elected.

LOL is that all you’re taking into consideration? His approval numbers by a select number of Americans that doesn’t even come close to representing the country as a whole?

 

[Papageorgio]

Just to give an example of how flawed “disapproval” is, my mother thinks Trump is a disgusting human being for cheating on his wives and for talking about grabbing pussies, but at the same time she literally wept for over an hour when she thought Hillary might win because she voted for him and she hates Hillary.

My mom still thinks Trump is disgusting today and she will vote even more enthusiastically for him in 2020 because of the scum that the Democrats have become.

excellent point, we don't elect presidents to become pope (might be a bad analogy), we elect them to get the job done, keep the country safe, and preserve our rights and freedoms. Trump is a brash, crude talking New Yorker, millions of New Yorkers, New Jerseyites and Bostonians talk exactly the same way. It actually means nothing.

We on the Right do....but for the Left/Democrats, it's cultish fascination....hence, Obama was their god, Jesus, and messiah.
We never anoint our candidates.


"The mob characteristic most gustily exhibited by liberals is the tendency to worship and idolize their political leaders. Le Bon explained that mobs can only grasp the “very simple and very exaggerated.” Their chosen images must be absolute and uncompromising… As Le Bon says, the “primitive” black-and-white emotions of a crowd slip easily into “infatuation for an individual.”

Liberals worship so many political deities that they must refer to them by initials, just to save time- FDR, JFK, RFK, MLK, LBJ, and O.J. Ever hear a conservative get weepy about “RWR” or refer to something as hokey as “Camelot”? Passionate adoration are the primitive emotions of a mob, sentiments generally associated with women, children, and savages, according to Le Bon."
Coulter

Obama never had an equivalent to QAnon. QAnon is a textbook definition of a cult; and many Trump supporters are suckers.

Especially from those still hanging on while Trump has 60 percent disapproval.

I can see similarities between the Trump and Obama followers, they both stand by them no matter what or how stupid it is. Both parties are very similar in that respect.

His polling data as President is far more relevant in his chances at re-election in 2020. A sitting President with 39% approval is not going to be re-elected.

And yet a candidate with a 38% approval did. Look, we get that you're looking for closure after the Beast lost, but are you sure this is the way going two years on?

His approval is at 45% anyway, probably more without outliers like Gallup. Short of some kind of cataclysm, his re-election is a given.

HIs approval is a bit lower than that this week. The overall average since being elected is 39%. That will likely go down in the months to come. He has the lowest overall average approval rating of ANY President. That's not good at all. No President has ever been re-elected with an approval rating lower than 48%. Trump is TOAST! If you like him, enjoy it while it last. He does not have much longer. The shrinking Republican Party will not be able to save him in the general election in 2020.

Trump only got 45.8% of the popular vote. He won the electoral college by barely winning states like Wisconsin by 10,000 votes, Michigan by 20,000 votes, and Pennsylvania by only 40,000 votes. Those states are going back to solid Blue in 2020. How is Trump going to replace those losses? He can't! He will lose in 2020 if he makes it to the election and then finally you and others will realize just how much of a fluke his victory in 2016 happened to be.

Are you psychic or just don’t mind making yourself look idiotic by predicting the future based on nowhere near enough information?

You’re not a “whole picture” type of thinker, are you?

Gee...after 2 years...of non-stop traitorous obstruction, collusion, conspiracy, lies, etc....pushed by a massive liberally biased media...I wonder how the Liberals could ever have come up with a poll results like that?!

Gallup is NOT a liberal polling organization or company. If anything they have been accused of being conservative but that's not the case either. When Donald Trump fails to be re-elected in 2020, you can come back here and realize the indicators of his defeat were right here.

Wow. I’m truly offended by your simplistic way of thinking. I bet you’re a perfect little sheep who always does as you’re told and never let’s inconvenient ideas enter your mind.

Great news!!! That's 3 points higher then when he won the Presidency and beat Hillary.

Being President and getting re-elected is a different animal. The lowest approval rating any sitting President has had and still was re-elected was 48%. Donald Trump is well below that.

So that means it can’t possibly happen?

LMAO
