Exactly. Hold the line on it, there aren't any voters we want who would punish you for it.

Well, now it's Labor Day. Hope we see more VA-GOV polls coming.
Yes, 9/7/2019.

Did you guys see today's gallup? Safe to say Trump has had his first official poll "bump" as President. He's had a massive 9 point swing in just 2 days. On 9/1 he was at 34/61, just two days later on 9/3 he now spiked up to 38/56.
Is this a "Harvey Bump"? Or maybe over the holiday weekend, soft Trump supporters came home after getting refueled with fresh Trump propaganda from family members.

He read from a teleprompter that one time during a SOTU and his poll numbers went up, he also became president of the united states that night.

Harvey bump. Most talk has been about hurricane in media and not as much about the horrible shit he's done. Plus he kissed a black kid and Republicans aren't on TV complaining how he's doing a horrible job.
Unfortunately bad Trump shit like ending daca is about to be drowned out by another hurricane. Guy has so much damn luck it's crazy.

I guess Bush should've tried the Social Security privatization during Katrina. Hindsight!
Why not both?

He had an 8-point bump over a month ago. His disapproval rating usually looks like an EKG on Gallup, it 's super volatile. The recent steadiness was atypical.

I like how an 8 point jump still leaves him at a pathetically low rating.
A jump that large is rather suspect
I'm... not sure I say Trump has "luck" when he's looking at a failed one term presidency that will be left as an embarrassing footnote in American history.

Well, 38% puts him nearly back at 50. Pack it in, folks. Dreamers getting deported, Obamacare being repealed, RBG and Breyer might as well self-immolate. Nothing good will ever happen again, even your school board elections 'bout to be gerrymandered.
I almost said, "This is literally bad" but couldn't bring myself to misuse "literally" in the egregious way this forum does.

One term isn't guaranteed. After last November I have no faith in him losing and won't believe it until it happens.

They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
From the little CNN I watched over the last few days, he definitely got some positive news coverage for his second attempt at being a human during a natural disaster.

Probably has more to do with the holiday than anything. I expect it roll off in three days.
Even if it doesn't, 38% is not like, a good approval rating!

Unless Irma drives it off, but hurricane season starts to peter out right when the budget comes due...

Am I the only one that thinks it's totally pointless to monitor the 2/3% daily shiftings in his approval ratings. Every new number is basically within the margin of error
Donald's also shown himself to ignore their advice when he wants to anyway. Need to focus on congress.

Yeah, this is expected. The flat line for the past week was the weird thing.

That DREAM Act vote was such bullshit. Collins, Graham, McCain, Kirk and Snowe voting for it would have gotten it passed, but nope, can't let Obama have a win ever.
Oh, and I forgot that 5 Democrats voted against it as well. Dumbshits. I think only one of them is even still around.
Yeah, its pretty early, but its looking like some part of the state will get hit between Friday and Sunday in most current models. Hope this doesn't damage the area where my family is too badly.

History has shown to get positive change there has to be violence unfortunately. Peaceful protests don't mean anything. I'm not advocating they become violent though.
if reid would have nuked the filibuster it would have passed.

Trump's gimp Jeff Sessions is the one that gets to announce he's ending daca tomorrow. Bet the keebler elf is thrilled.

Not Miss Lindsey Graham being a hypocrite! Clutch my pearls!
Gallup's weekly average is better to look at for that reason. Shows the overal trend, and has a lower margin of error.
Yeah, that was interesting.

He really thinks he can do this and wash himself of any personal responsibility.

Of course. Everything bad is someone else's fault and everything good is all because of him.

I think Trump actually gave a decent effort on the second attempt because Mike Pence just a couple of days earlier basically upstaged Trump. In a lot of the news coverage, it was said Mike Pence was acting like how a real President should during a natural disaster and there was footage of him getting his hands dirty rebuilding homes.
Especially after that recent NYT article, Trump is probably deeply suspicious of Pence and just in general Trump doesn't like his subordinates getting better press coverage. That's probably why Trump finally found the fortitude to kiss black babies and act like a human being for a day.

If Sessions won't resign, make him the punching bag for everything.
