I can't be arsed to figure out what thread the polling history dating back to 1983 was posted. It's on Gallup. Look it up.




Ok... from Gallup:

Wrong as usual. For 8 years Obama hovered around 50%, while Dump is around 40% so far.

Maybe you were looking at how Republicans viewed Obama?



No. I was looking at the approval vs. disapproval for the direction the country is headed... which is MUCH higher right now than it ever was during Obama's presidency (Save for two months during Obama's first year as President).

That's a more important statistic in my eyes than the popularity contest revolving around one man.


Citations in a previous post to the Gallup polling data on that fact dating back to 1983.




Nice try! Here's the exchange:

SGG - "Trump approval rating 39% the lowest since the whole Charlottesville debacle."

You - "39% is still higher than any point of Obama's presidency, aside from two months during the summer of 2009."

Maybe you didn't know what you were responding to... until now?



Fine. I'll give you that one.

So now the question is...

Are you going to let semantics keep you from letting the fact that more Americans by nearly TWO TIMES approve of the direction the country is going in right now than at nearly any point during Obama's 8 years as president sink in?

Do Right, Be Right. :)
