    Are these the same polls that gave him a 1% chance to win the election?
    Are you seriously believing these polls now? Hasn't your side learned yet?

    Granted it's an informal poll on my part but, I think the rioting across the country is a pretty good indicator... I've never seen that after an election before... and I'm old.

    I am not so sure. There was tons of crap going on with Obama, and Bush, but back then the prevalent use of social media was quite a bit lower compared to today, fake news / propaganda sites were pretty much non-existent in terms of relevance. I don't remember if MSM was as biased back then, but I did vote for Obama the first time, so likely they were, LOL :)

    I mean twitter as an example, which is a huge liberal signal fire was formed in 2006. After Bush election, and only two years before Obama was elected.

    Many of Trump's tweets and his press conference disagree with you.

    You're a retard if you legitimately think Trump has even a decent approval rating right now. Wake the fuck up. We don't need polls to know the truth. I'm not saying that his favorability can't change but it's so beyond obvious the majority of Americans think he's an outright clown to this point.

    I'm not at all saying that the popular vote should dictate the winner but it's pretty foolish to completely overlook the fact that the majority of people didn't want him. He won, that's cool. But it should not be a surprise to anyone that his favorability is crap after gaining 3 million less votes than hillary. Just sayin'

    Exactly! And I honestly hope Trump really does turn this thing around but his tweets aren't giving me a lot of confidence. He's just not focusing on things that matter. Who cares what the polls say, he's in, why waste time even acknowledging them?!?

    This. This is what I'm talking about. The polls dont even matter because his unpopularity is so obvious, him denying it is only making him look like more of narcissistic baby. He needs to stop whining on Twitter every time someone says something about him he doesn't like. I hope once he takes the oath of office he stops with that shit. Stop focusing on Meryl Streep and focus on doung well for this country.

    It's hard to trust the polls these days.

    You have pollsters who obviously got the election results very wrong.

    The wording of the questions matter, or the polls are actually "push polls."

    And then there's the constant stirring up of shit by the biased media. PR absolutely affects polls. The media's focus is on destroying Trump and his nominees, not reporting on anything he does that is good.

    Like meeting with MLK III gets a minute or two air time every few hours. Yet they have panel after panel of Trump haters talking down about him.

    I frankly don't care about his popularity. It will only matter, ultimately, in 2020. If by then, his popularity is still low, he's sucked as president. If he comes through on a fraction of his promises, he should be hugely popular.
