The survey, conducted by Pew Research Center Aug. 15-21 among 1,893 adults, finds that 15% of Americans say they agree with Trump on all or nearly all issues, while another 18% say they agree with him on many but not all issues. Most say they agree with Trump on either a few issues (21%) or “no or almost no issues” (45%).
Setting issues aside, a majority (58%) say they do not like the way Trump conducts himself as president, while 25% have mixed feelings about his conduct. Just 16% say they like the way he conducts himself as president.
Is it wrong that I think at this point that 16% is still much too high?
But there's more.
Among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, just 31% say they agree with Trump on all or nearly all issues, while an additional 38% agree with him on many, but not all, issues. Fully 93% of Democrats and Democratic leaners say they agree with Trump on, at most, a few issues, including 77% who report virtually no agreement with Trump on issues.
In views of Trump’s conduct as president, 46% of Republicans express mixed feelings, while 19% say they do not like his conduct; 34% say they like the way he conducts himself as president. Among Democrats, 89% have a negative view of Trump’s conduct.
I have no idea how people find ANYTHING about Trump's conduct to be positive.
Rabid wolverines conduct themselves more positively than Donald Trump.
Still these are truly terrible numbers for Trump since typically a sitting president could rely on the fact that at least 95% of his own party would support how he conducts himself in his job.
I think even a dead guy in the Oval Office could pull higher numbers.
Fully 93% of Democrats and Democratic leaners say they agree with Trump on, at most, a few issues, including 77% who report virtually no agreement with Trump on issues.

Is there a mistake in this sentence, 93 % of Democrats agree with trump????
I'm a Democrat and I don't like anything about Trump at all. I also think he is incapable of doing the job he currently has.

DeleteNo, just in your reading of it. Agreeing "on, at most, a few issues" does not mean, as you suggest, "agree with trump". In means agreement on at most a few issues, including zero issues.
Trump can shoot someone in Time Square and there will always be some dumb asses that would defend him.
ReplyDeleteSo the big major players in congress will meet next Wednesday to figure out how to work together and get along? Really? How about back up and kick that liar out of office then force a serious attitude adjustment and exorcism on the entire republican cult. America is fed up. Americans are fed up. Overturn citizen united. impeach trump and pence. Sanction republicans. Cut the crap and drain the swamp today.
ReplyDeleteVote every Republican out of office next chance you get! Especially Lisa Murkowski of Alaska! She is not doing her state, or the country, any favors!
DeleteReally? It's Lisa Murkowski you have a beef with? Not Dan Sullivan?
DeleteHow about ESPECIALLY Mitch McConnell? ESPECIALLY Paul Ryan? I've got at least a dozen or two I would suggest before I got close to Lisa Murkowski.
Remember. She voted AGAINST the Death Bill/Trump Care. She was part of the triad that saved Obamacare.
There seems to be enough evidence to handcuff and remove from our buildings, trump and foundation players, his co-cons and lousy actor operatives today. And most important the state and local people that helped to escalate this criminal activity and political crimes.
ReplyDeleteWhat did they expect when they voted for him? A focus group in PA had Trump supporters who said they wanted to give him a chance but he disappoints to they thought Trump would act differently when president. I have read articles by journalists apologizing or admitting to regret for supporting him.
ReplyDeleteTrump is a daily national embarrassment. He sounds like a bigger idiot tweeting liberals can't get over losing the election. That spin is not accepted nor helping him distract from his self absorbed, crass, classless conduct.

ReplyDelete"Hurricane Harvey is now in the running to be the worst natural disaster in US history, so Donald Trump is ignoring the Texas victims and heading to Missouri for a campaign rally."
"“It was a presidential trip to a deluged state where the president didn’t meet a single storm victim, see an inch of rain or get near a flooded street.”"ne can expect the President to use much of Missouri speech to complain about the “unfair” media coverage that his Texas visit received."Donald Trump doesn’t care, and his lack of empathy is embodied by the decision to hold a campaign rally during one of the worst natural disasters in US history." Me think HE IS 'THE WORST' DISASTER.
It will get worse.
DeleteWhile Congress will be trying to provide money to FEMA for Harvey relief, Trump will be shutting down the government if he doesn't siphon all of the money into his fucking WALL.
