Worst approval I’ve seen for Trump in a while. 1991 Registered Voters.
https://twitter.com/Politics_Polls/status/1306255816144674818?s=20
Right Direction: 27% (534)
Wrong Track: 73% (1457)
Even if a solid chunk of the 73% are Trumpists, I don’t think anyone’s ever won reelection with a number like 73%.
From Nov. 2, 2012:
Yet it was almost precisely the same - 41-55 percent, right direction vs. wrong track - shortly before the 2004 election, a handicap George W. Bush overcame to win a second term. In another similarity, Bush fell as low as a 48 percent job approval rating heading into that election; Obama is at 50 percent in this poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates.
This shows a comparison with 2004 and 2012, where Bush and Obama were both at 41-55 for Right Direction/Wrong Track.

Stolen from a friend-for those of us continually struggling to figure out how Trump could still have a solid 42% support despite 200,000 Covid19 deaths and the most corrupt and inept administration in our nations history, this explanation is as good as any:
“To answer the question-- Why do people continue supporting Trump no matter what he does?
A lady named Bev answered it this way:
“You all don’t get it. I live in Trump country, in the Ozarks in southern Missouri, one of the last places where the KKK still has a relatively strong established presence. They don’t give a shit what he does. He’s just something to rally around and hate liberals, that’s it, period. He absolutely realizes that and plays it up. They love it. He knows they love it. The fact that people act like it’s anything other than that proves to them that liberals are idiots, all the more reason for high fives all around.
"If you keep getting caught up in “why do they not realize this problem” and “how can they still back Trump after this scandal,” then you do not understand what the underlying motivating factor of his support is. It’s fuck liberals, that’s pretty much it.
"Have you noticed he can do pretty much anything imaginable, and they’ll explain some way that rationalizes it that makes zero logical sense? Because they’re not even keeping track of any coherent narrative, it’s irrelevant. Fuck liberals is the only relevant thing. Trust me; I know firsthand what I’m talking about.
"That’s why they just laugh at it all because you all don’t even realize they truly don’t give a fuck about whatever the conversation is about. It’s just a side mission story that doesn’t matter anyway. That’s all just trivial details - the economy, health care, whatever.
"Fuck liberals.
"Look at the issue with not wearing the masks. I can tell you what that’s about. It’s about exposing fear. They’re playing chicken with nature, and whoever flinches just moved down their internal pecking order, one step closer to being a liberal.
"You’ve got to understand the one core value that they hold above all others is hatred for what they consider weakness because that’s what they believe strength is, hatred of weakness. And I mean passionate, sadistic hatred. And I’m not exaggerating. Believe me. Sadistic, passionate hatred, and that’s what proves they’re strong, their passionate hatred for weakness. Sometimes they will lump vulnerability in with weakness. They do that because people tend to start humbling themselves when they’re in some compromising or overwhelming circumstance, and to them, that’s an obvious sign of weakness.
"Kindness = weakness. Honesty = weakness. Compromise = weakness.
"They consider their very existence to be superior in every way to anyone who doesn’t hate weakness as much as they do. They consider liberals to be weak people that are inferior, almost a different species, and the fact that liberals are so weak is why they have to unite in large numbers, which they find disgusting, but it’s that disgust that is a true expression of their natural superiority.
"Go ahead and try to have a logical, rational conversation with them. Just keep in mind what I said here and be forewarned.”
I’m going to re-read this every time I get frustrated with Rs blatant hypocrisy. Bev nailed it.

I heard they were all actors paid by George Soros!
From the Morning Consult poll.
There’s 290 pages of internals on this poll, linked above. Someone else can mine it for interesting stuff.
I noticed that dems in congress are 11% more favorable than republicans (45 vs 34).
Pelosi is 38% favorable, Cocaine Mitch is 24%, Schumer is 29%.

I don’t even get my hopes up anymore. George RR Martin must be one of the writers these days.
Would be pretty great if Biden agreed to Trump’s PED testing nonsense, tested positive for marijuana, and then used the ensuing media coverage to promote full legalization.
