***Breaking*** Orange Mussolini's approval rating falls to 38% in new Quinnipiac poll

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Per MSNBC

[Torchlight]

1. 3.6 roentgen, not great, not terrible.

I'm guessing that's Miller cued-up line for the next three meetings.

[bearsfootball516]

11. And there certainly WAS NOT any graphite on the roof!

[PermatexNo.2]

28. ""it's not 3 roentgen, it's 15000!!"

[jrthin]

2. Still too high.

[orangecrush]

3. This

[newdeal2]

6. This is pretty close to his floor

I estimate about 30% of this country is hardcore MAGA.

He will never lose those people no matter what. No matter what.

[CTyankee]

12. Wait until they lose their job, their house and their savings and they are on the street.

Sadly, that will happen to the truest of the true believers. Karma is coming. Then we'll see...

[Tarzanrock]

19. Fuck 'em! Let them all flush down the toilet with that stinking Turd ...

and swirl like the sewer rats which they are down the toilet and down the sewer pipes along with that Turd-Asshole! They own their misery and they deserve that misery far more than does anyone else. Fuck 'em -- let them eat shit and die!

[newdeal2]

22. I stand by my statement

These are cultists. He can literally do no wrong in their eyes and they can find some conspiracy or justification for everything.

[paleotn]

32. I couldn't care less if they change their views on Donnie or not

Their suffering is still righteous punishment.

[ProfessorGAC]

24. They'll Blame Dems & Immigrants

For that 30%, maybe 25, even having the woes come to their doorstep will be somebody else's fault. Not Mango's.

[nilram]

37. Will all be Biden's fault.

Or Obama's.

[Mike 03]

13. I thought it got as low as 33% during the first term, but I can't remember

who the pollster was. If I'm recalling this correctly, it was late, probably mid-2020. I can envision him going lower this term, but not lower than 28 to 30 (though I'd love to see that).

[ProfessorGAC]

29. Check This Out

The first graph in this Wiki entry is an easy visual aid.
It looks like his low was 35% just as he was about to leave office. But, there is a precipitous decline for about the last 4 months, of around 11%.
It also looks like he touched those sane lows in late '17/early '18.
So, this 38% is not his all-time low.

[SergeStorms]

26. I think you're low on that 30%.

That's where he was in 2016. He's made some headway with minorities, hard-core racists, young people, and yes, even women.
He's lost some along the way as well, but I'd estimate his hard-core floor at around 38%, plus or minus 1.5%.
It's going to be a battle, perhaps literally, to get our country back.

[OMGWTF]

42. We rode our bikes on the trail near our house yesterday and someone had chalked

"MAGA" and 'Thank you president T💩p' on the trail. On the way back we still had some water, so, we used it to get rid of the "T" leaving 'rump' and the "M" leaving 'AGA'. Someone with chalk had written "sucks" under MAGA, which was subsequently crossed out by more chalk. All of this in 30 minutes. Chalk wars. Haven't been back today to see what it looks like.

[dchill]

7. There it is.

[hatrack]

8. Yep . . .

Should be at least 10 points lower.

[Bev54]

21. I agree, still too high for the rest of the world to count on the US. Another Trump can happen at that rate.

He and the republicans should be below 20%

[Johonny]

4. Ill be honest, thats lower than I thought possible

With the economy chugging along in at least positive territory.

[Initech]

5. With his little stunt this week in my hometown, it should be 0%.

If we lived in a just society that is. But our society is not just right now.

[Silent Type]

9. Sounds good, unless it's people mad because he's not shooting people in the streets.

[Moostache]

10. After Saturday, it may drop closer to 25%.

Once he is deposed, the number will drop into single digits, but anyone who voted for him EVER is accountable to history and subject to retribution and fines in my mind. I want to address taxation burdens and debt retirement and social programs, but first things first, I want repairs for what Trump has broken and I want his fans to pay full freight for it.

If people thought the Treaty of Versailles at the end of WWI was draconian, you better NEVER let me get control of the purse while Billionaires ride dick-shaped rockets and young girls die in parking lots and ERs unable to receive vital health care. While we have allowed billionaires to cut their taxes and kill programs and the poor right now, if I ever get control of this mess, that equation is getting inverted immediately! The currently rich and powerful are going to find out how much fun being broke, ignored and abused really is.

[Greg_In_SF]

14. He's still

averaging 47%

[C_U_L8R]

15. Not low enough

He should be so toxic that even republicans run from him

[Karasu]

16. Nothing is too toxic for anyone who is STILL in that party after 1/6/21. All they care about is power.

[everyonematters]

17. This is the only poll that has him that low.

Most of the other reputable polls have him at about 45%. Even in this poll, the Republicans are more favorable than the Democrats, although they are ahead in cares about people like me.

[Blue Owl]

18. I think it's padded somehow -- like Rudy G's brassiere.....

[Tarzanrock]

20. Notice how they both wear make-up and yellow stained PissWigs?

This is no coincidence.

[senseandsensibility]

23. I like this

Not gonna say it's too high. I long ago realized that about thirty percent are unreachable. We can lower it eight more percent if we're united.

[ancianita]

25. Here's the Quinnipiac Poll URL -- no graphs, just numbers.

https://poll.qu.edu/poll-release?releaseid=3924

This is just one part of the complete report...

PRESIDENT TRUMP

Thirty-eight percent of voters approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, while 54 percent disapprove. In Quinnipiac University's April 9 poll, 41 percent approved, while 53 percent disapproved.

Voters were asked about Trump's handling of seven issues...

immigration issues: 43 percent approve, 54 percent disapprove, with 3 percent not offering an opinion;
deportations: 40 percent approve, 56 percent disapprove, with 4 percent not offering an opinion;
the economy: 40 percent approve, 56 percent disapprove, with 4 percent not offering an opinion;

trade: 38 percent approve, 57 percent disapprove, with 6 percent not offering an opinion;
universities: 37 percent approve, 54 percent disapprove, with 9 percent not offering an opinion;
the Israel - Hamas conflict: 35 percent approve, 52 percent disapprove, with 13 percent not offering an opinion;

the Russia - Ukraine war: 34 percent approve, 57 percent disapprove, with 10 percent not offering an opinion.

[senseandsensibility]

27. So much for the corporate media's beloved talking point

that immigration is his strong suit and using that to sanewash his calling in the National Guard. Not that facts will stop them.

[ancianita]

30. Corporate media is owned by the felon's oligarch network. Sure, these results might get buried in back pages,

and never mentioned at all on RW Fox or media. Which is how the country stays informationally divided.

Q Polls are not as old or as big in sampling as Gallup, and so the sampling can still be skewed against being representative of the country, and so not as valid and reliable as Gallup's.

Which means there's not really an accurate snapshot of the political approval reality out there.

Here's their methodology. https://poll.qu.edu/methodology/

I mean, only 1,000 people polled?
I know that it's impossible to poll 1% of the country (it would be a 3,330,000 sample), but still... a much larger sampling would give the public a bit more confidence.

All this does is feed into the disparity between national election voting counts and the so-called national polling.

[Dan]

35. Polling

The greater the population the smaller the sample size.

[TheRickles]

33. Surprising that there's only been a 2% shift in the past two months.

Maybe the sh*t has to really hit the fan. Maybe his birthday celebration on Saturday, with massive rallies around the country, will be a tipping point. I certainly hope so.

[ancianita]

36. From Rachel's coverage of polls over the first 100 days, the shift downward is still trending. A good thing.

Hopefully it's an accurate picture of the country's political position.

[Cinjanik]

31. Orange mussolinni

We need to "Khomeini" tRump, his admin and the Republican party!!!

[Miles Archer]

34. Check his numbers after Saturday.

If he's the same or goes up, the battle's gonna be more uphill than I thought.

On the other hand, if his numbers take a hit, that's a small ray of light at the end of the tunnel.

[Lokee11]

38. How could it ever be that fuckin' HIGH?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

✊FDT!

[UTUSN]

39. K&R

[Demovictory9]

40. lol... right before his birthday parade

[33taw]

41. Why does it matter?
