1. That's about 30% less than it should be nt

[MoonRiver]

4. Hey it is a start...

[beachbum bob]

5. yes it is...we need to be prepared for 2018 election

7. I think lowest ever means something.

As I said, how low will he go. I think he'll hit 65 in a month, if not before.

9. I agree. I am not sure what that other person is getting at. 55% disapproval is very meaningful. nt

6. Actually, it's the HIGHEST ever DISapproval rating

There have been much, much lower DISapproval ratings, but we want Trump's to be high and to get even higher.

It's his APPROVAL rating we want to be the lowest ever.

Sorry for being pedantic, but I had a similar issue debated last week when I posted on his record-breaking poll numbers.

8. Well, if overall disapproval/approval equals 100, just do the math.

10. It's almost like the majority of American voters didn't want him to be President.

And then he spent the entire transition period and first few weeks in office acting as if he received 80% of the vote.

Who knew?

[MoonRiver]

12. It's all such a mystery.

11. As his disapprovals rise....

Likewise my fear of a major terrorist attack rise. Perhaps I'm being melodramatic, but a 9/11 type event is all this administration needs to solidify its power, either through neglect or intentional agitation. I wouldn't be surprised if this administration would allow an attack to occur nor would I be shocked that this administration would be so dimwitted they would ignore intelligence.
