Trump Jr. shares fake Trump approval rating on Instagram

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T






Donald Trump , Jr., on Friday shared a doctored image of a CNN graphic that inaccurately stated that his father had a 50 percent approval rating in a Gallup poll.












The graphic, which Trump Jr. posted on Instagram on Thursday, appears to come from a Monday segment on CNN during which host John King fact checked the president’s previous tweet claiming that Trump has “better numbers than Obama at this point, by far.”

The original graphic shows Trump with a 40 percent approval rating, compared to former President Obama’s 45 percent approval rating from the same point of his presidency. However, the one shared by Trump, Jr., is doctored to show a 50 percent approval rating.

“Amazing. I guess there is a magic wand to make things happen and @realdonaldtrump seems to have it,” Trump Jr. wrote in the Instagram post.

Trump has never received a 50 percent job approval rating in the Gallup weekly tracker of the measurement.

He has reached a high of 45 percent twice, once just days after his inauguration and again in mid-June.

The Hill has reached out to Trump Jr.’s spokesperson for comment.

During the segment, King pulled up numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Treasury Department and other government sources to compare statistics from under Obama to those under Trump.

King described Trump and Obama as having “roughly the same” approval rating at this point of their presidencies, citing the Gallup poll.

The host also noted that Obama took office during a recession and that Trump became president during a period of economic growth, which also impacted the statistics.

Junior just posted a photoshopped photo of his dad's approval ratings & artificially inflated Trump's rating so that it's higher than Obama's 😂

Yes, the magic wand of lies, obfuscation, misinformation, exaggeration and denial. It's all the Trumplodytes have left.

What's more amazing is not that the Trump's blatantly lie and are caught but that they're followers continue to believe them without pause.  

We really need to focus on education and mental illness in this country.  There are enough indicators that the country has approximately 30 - 35% of it's citizens lacking the tools to analyze information and/or suffering from mental health related  illnesses.

They don't believe him.  Even the right wing dingbats aren't that stupid.  They know damn well that Trump is a total piece of shit, they just don't care.  Trump is inflicting gratuitous cruelty on those they hate, plus, it 'gets' the 'libs.'

I don't know if I can agree or maybe I'd rather believe a person is not bright or mentally ill opposed to being so hateful, uncaring and greedy that they are willing to look the other way at Trump and his Administration's actions.

We are already long past the point where it is no longer acceptable for any decent human being to support Trump.

Fake President, fake polls, fake results, fake gold apartments, this family loves fake. They love "alternative facts". They have built their brand on it.
