ARG Poll: Trump Approval 35% to 63% Disapproval

[Pototan]

President Donald Trump has recorded the lowest approval rating of his second term, according to new polling from the American Research Group (ARG), which shows the president’s standing with the public continuing a long downward slide.

The latest survey finds Trump at 35 percent approval and 63 percent disapproval, yielding a net approval of –28 points—his worst recorded by ARG since the Republican's return to office. The findings also show that just 32 percent of Americans approve of Trump's handling of the economy, while 64 percent disapprove.

1. That approval rating should be missing a decimal point

3.5% would still be too high, but not nearly so alarming and depressing as 35%

Everyone who voted for this dangerous buffoon should be deeply ashamed.

3. I can't believe he has 35% approval. WTH they see in him?

4. it's actually predicted

Research has shown that 1/3 of every population is predisposed to authoritarian rule. But why America's predisposed chose this vile scumbag to rule over them is another matter.

5. 30% Is The Floor

There are 25% who are true believers for whom nothing he does can ve wrong or bad.
Another 5% will approve of anything that results in lower taxes.
The one thing I find encouraging about this poll is the approve + disapprove = 98%.
It's not one of these polls that has 10% of people who "aren't sure".
I believe the "unsure" crowd is an unreliable voting bloc so they need to be ignored anyway.

6. I think you're right. Also factor in the people who pay no attention to the world they live in

He just seems to be losing people. But the question is what percentage of support does a dictator need? And so far Republicans, especially those in the Senate, are not feeling any pressure yet to truly push back on him. So I'm guessing their internal state pulling at least has them in a decent spot.

8. They see themselves in him. He's not really a special anomaly, he's just like the 30% or so of people that...

...approve of what he's doing. He's basically their spokesperson; their whisperer; their spirit animal.

And it's not that surprising: even serial killers probably poll approval in the 20 percent range.

The other 5 - 15 percent--depending on the poll--probably either support just some of what he is doing--going after DEI and LGBTQ+ issues, etc.--or they really have no clue what he's doing at all.

We live in a giant bell curve.... Politically he would never even exist without it.

7. Perhaps I should put a sticker on my car: "Don't be 1/3 of a decent Human Being"

9. He. Doesn't. Care.

He has all the power in the world now, and no one is stopping him.

Why should he care what the American people think? SUCKERS!

[Norbert]

10. I guess he will be suing ARG now.

12. Yet again, I have to ask...

...how can his numbers possibly be this high?

13. the Lower he goes the faster he's buried.
