Bush's lowest rating was 25%
Obama had lower ratings than 42% in 2011, 2013, 2014 (almost the whole year below 45%)
Bush had way better ratings than Obama most of the time. (I mean, are you fucking serious? Bush??)
Bush had a rating of 90% right after 9/11. That was a plus of almost 40%

You know what that tells me? Most people are sheep and jump on bandwagons quite fast.

P.S.:
What's also interesting, at the same sample size Rasmussen turns up with an approval rate of 50%.
please don't mention sample size or Trump will say his sample is bigger!

As Trump continues to be the focus of attention, the magicians pretty (ugh) assistant there to deflect your attention from what is really going on take a look at how sens. Ryan and McCarthy are very competently going about organising and putting into play REAL Republican ideals.
As they say the sleight of hand expert will always divert attention away from areas of great interest - and the blonde bombshell (who fixes his tie down with selotape) is no exception.
While he works the crowd, while the crowd yell for more pick pockets roam - in other words while you watch the Trump action the real felony is going on elsewhere - so read the small print, remember the big guy is only as good as the supporting cast!

Rasmussen is a shit poll, oversamples Republicans. It is always an outlier.
My bad, didn't know that. My point was that such polls are nonsense anyway. Polls said Trump wouldn't stand a chance against Clinton. Polls said Brexit won't happen. There's just too many things to consider, like social desirability, who did that poll and with which intention and last but not least sample size. Sure 1500 people is a big enough sample size in general but 15 people are already 1% of that. So it's up to you whether you think such polls are really reliable. Don't get me wrong. I don't want to say that this low approval rating doesn't reflect reality. Just that Obama had such shitty ratings (and even lower) aswell once in a while and Bush went from 90% to 25% (or the other way around, didn't bother to re-check). Such polls are pretty much useless. But that's just my personal opinion.

Oh dear, care to elaborate on how this contradicts anything I wrote? Everybody knows that the approval of his presidency was fucking low from the start. Fun fact: Obama's average approval was just 5.5% higher than Trumps. But that's just numbers taken out of context and they mean nothing at all. Little hint: that's exactly what you did.

Men will always tell you that it's bigger :D

Exactly. While Trump grabs the media's attention by fabricating his OWN bullshit version of "truths" from thin air, he and the Republicans are quietly going about the business of dismantling Obamacare, privatizing education, undoing environmental and consumer protections, rolling back school lunch nutritional mandates, and doing other sneaky shit like THIS:

States try to obliterate the resistance with bills crushing dissent

"According to a recent count from the American Civil Liberties Union, at least 17 states have proposed such anti-protest bills, many of which include language ostensibly aimed at improving measures such as public safety. But upon closer analysis, these bills all appear to share the intended goal of suppressing First Amendment rights by making peaceful dissent a crime with the threat of jail time and hefty fines."

Because that's what fascists DO. They demonize minorities by making them the cause of all woes, they tell people the media is the enemy while presenting outright LIES AS TRUTH, and they go about silencing all opposition.

We are watching the real time destruction of democracy. It's almost surreal. So many of the established institutions warned us before the election that all the supposed checks and balances wouldn't save us. The Constotuion would not save us. And now we are learning how right they were.

How about watching hypocrisy.
Trump has decried the FBI, claimed they were not working for the American people or the president and were in fact anti democratic and responsible for spreading fake news.
Yesterday, at the press release for the new restriction of movement bill one of the reasons given was that the FBI currently have 3000 Muslims under observation suspected of terrorist involvement
Hey guys, you cant knock them one day and then get behind them the next.
And guess what else. Tillerson, remember him, now one of the inner circle advising Trump, another rick old man who used to work for Exxon, CEO! Could there be any link between him the White House and the fact that Exxon have been given permission to expand in the US Gulf?
Who says charity doesn't begin at home!
And folks talk about crooked Hilary....
