I voted disapprove. I have never voted Democrat for national office since I started voting in 1984 (Reagan), but have voted 3rd party a few times.
I have already sent my congresspeople emails letting them know if they don't vote to impeach and remove just based on what we already know publicly, I will be voting a straight Dem ticket for all national races...all the while holding my nose.

That's a good question.
My sense is that because Trump is so unpopular, there are fewer people who are likely to "advertise" their vote for him. Be that a bumper sticker or yard sign or acknowledging a vote in public.
And since of course the actual method of voting is private, I think this kind of private poll is best.

Unpopular here.
The difference between publicizing your support for Trump as opposed to publicizing your support for a Democrat, is that only one will likely face the possible threat of confrontation.

Voted disapprove, but it is interesting to think is it worse, about as expected or better than you thought when he was elected.
Worse than expected with the appointees like DeVos for example. Better maybe on the economy because I think we’re lucky it didn’t tank.

Good point but I would think most of the hardcore conservatives would have a really hard time voting "agree" on a guy who is exploding the national deficit worse than Obama.

Wrong thread.
And, I think it is normal for some to think that the actions don't rise to the level of removal - even if they are wrong or illegal.

Trump is at a 10. We could use him at about a 2. If the guy could get himself down to a 6.5 to 8. He'd win re-election in a landslide.

The 10 people who voted "Approve", can we get examples on what he is doing for you to vote that way?

If I had to guess, it would be something along the lines of owning libs, building a wall, or some other talking point. I legitimately don't know of anything of substance he's done in office that's been beneficial for the majority of people.
Understood. But I intentionally ask the question the way I've asked it in the past and the way the standard approval polls ask it each week for the major polling organizations.

Shaky(not to mention he has no real impact on it anyway), wages are still down, he has a colossal deficit as a result, and the regulations he's rolled back have been mostly disasters.

His level of (forgive me mods) d-baggery. If the guy would just tone his schtick down a bit..........he'd not make so many lame, hateful and stupid comments and it would be an election based less on him personally.
I know a lot say he's incapable of a filter and his abrasiveness is attractive to some.....but I do think there's more Americans who aren't going to vote for him simply because he's unlikeable than are voting for him because they like the unrelenting shade he throws.

Yes, that 1.9% growth recently reported is really awesome. (Not) But yeah keep telling your peeps the economy is booming like the world has never seen before. Wonder how many times in our nation's history we have actually seen 5% growth plus. You know a lot of times deficts are reduced during economic booms.

If your not doing well in life now you never will. Tons of jobs, no inflation, super low interest rates, and a super hot stock market. Trump has cut three years off of my retirement date.

Which is really the the way to go. I know several people that would vote “disapprove” in this poll who would still vote for President Trump tomorrow if Warren/Bernie were the candidate on the other side.

The Ukraine scandal of course. There is no shortage of credible witnesses and details available. Here is but one of many links with a decent breakdown:

That is exactly why I asked you for one instead of four. I don't want to dive down into bribery/extortion and explain my concern there only to be responded to with 'what about campaign laws, what about misappropriation laws, what about conspiracy laws'. It becomes an endless game.

I don't understand your response. It's not a game. Because his actions caused him to break a few related laws instead of just one he is exempt somehow? Stick with the main one then, bribery/extortion if you like. The others are also valid though. As was already pointed out though this doesn't really belong in this thread. Probably should take it to the impeachment thread.

Great post, while nothing will move the needle in here a lot of people’s everyday life is significantly better than it was 4 years ago.

QE started creating an asset bubble in the 2009-2010 range, didn’t Trump get elected in 2016?

This isn’t the thread to talk about this, but short answer the Democrat candidates are terrible.
That had nothing to do with his comment, and even though they very well might be, they're still better than what we have in office now, and I don't even like democrats that much.
