CNN Poll: Trump approval down 6 points in a month, hits low among independents

Quote:
Trump's approval rating has fallen 6 points in the last month and stands at a new low among political independents, according to a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS.

Overall, just 36% approve of the way the President is handling his job, down from 42% in August.
Among independents, the drop has been sharper, from 47% approval last month to 31% now.
That's 4 points below his previous 2018 low of 35% approval among political independents in CNN polling, and 1 point below his previous all-time low among independents in CNN polling, reached in November 2017.

You're quoting from the Crap News Network. Everything that comes out of the television is BS.

CNN = Crap News Network
CNN = Clinton News Network
CNN = Communist News Network
CNN = Corrupt News Network
CBS = Crap Broadcasting Station
CBC = Communists Broadcasting Crap
NBC = Now Broadcasting Crap
BBC = Broadcasting BS Constantly

And now for some George Carlin...

All this negative news is to rally Trump supporters to get out and vote.

Yeah these polls are ridiculous because they don't weigh the responses by *likeliness to vote*

"I hate Trump, but I am too lazy to vote". <---- Your opinion doesn't matter
"I like Trump, but I work all day, and am too tired to vote" <---- Your opinion doesn't matter
"I like Trump, but I am unemployed, and don't have a car so I can't vote" <---- Your opinion doesn't matter
"I'm a student that hates Trump, but I will be at school, so can't vote" <---- Your opinion doesn't matter

What difference does it make? He's going to get impeached and indicted for collusion and tre45on anyways. Right? Please oh please.

The student’s opinion has a chance of mattering in a few years. And for the tired worker’s opinion to matter, they just have to get pissed off enough.

Any news source that says anything negative about Trump is "fake news."

Add any value from 5% to 10% if the poll was run by  Fox  Faux News.

Most if not all of these types of polls involves a smattering of about 1000 people being polled.

That comes out to 20 people per state who are polled.

How can anyone take that seriously?

If it's not one gang of goofballs, it's another gang of goofballs.
Administration after administration, this one is really not that much different.
Just study some history, this political circus act has been going on for a while.
Every so often they all just switch chairs.

Whatever, Trump actually isn't as bad as I thought he'd be, but people we're talking some pretty SCARY stuff in 2016. Now, same drama as all the others. I don't know about others, but I just got burned out on all that 'sky is falling' stuff.
Checks and balances are in place and still functional. It is still the good ol USA. Honestly, we have all been making mountains out of mole hills.

Wake me up in 2024. Sadly, I don't think the democrats have anyone willing to go up in 2020. really, who is there? willing to go up against disputed campaign tactics like what we saw? In '24 it's an open field again. Anyway the country is kinda caught in this two-term thing, (with exceptions, bush sr, carter)

PS: I went with Johnson, fyi.

Gawd-damnit. How the hell did I miss that one !

ABC = Always Broadcasting Crap

and for good measure let's add a couple more...

PBS = Publishers of Bull s**t

ESPN = Excess Slapping of Peoples' Nuts

I'm sure we can come up with many more...
