If n Americans disapprove, and only n+1 Americans approve, then your claim is valid.

Evidence that Americans FA but never FO because they're too darn clueless to understand anything about anything.

There's guaranteed to be a natural bias in any survey taken at this particular moment in time.

Most Republicans will naturally and happily want to endorse the choices of their candidate. A considerable number of Democrats are likely not to want to have anything to do with politics for a little while yet.

The figure that matters is that Trump polled 49.86% of the vote, which is not quite a mandate.

Transition is one thing. The actual term is another.

Most Americans pay little attention to the news, and so have no idea what unqualified loons Trump wants for cabinet positions. Many Americans Googled "tarifs" only after the election! God, this glorification of ignorance is making me reconsider pride in my country. :oops:

A guy at work tells me Eggs will be $1.00 again and that all " The lazy people on welfare can go pick crops". Like George Carlin would say " Garbage Garbage out"

Wrong question.
They like the smooth transition?...nobody suggested insurrection !
I'd rather see a presidential approval poll, although in a few days they will be completely untrustworthy

I'm seeing a lot of postings of - "I didn't think it would apply to/ affect me". It doesn't bolster my faith in humanity :roll:
